This handbook is the definitive reference text for the study of "dark tourism", the contemporary commodification of death within international visitor economies. Shining a light on dark tourism and visitor sites of death or disaster allows us to better understand issues of global tourism mobilities, tourist experiences, the co-creation of touristic meaning, and "difficult heritage" processes and practices. Adopting multidisciplinary perspectives from authors representing every continent, the book combines "real-world" viewpoints from both industry and the media with conceptual underpinning, and offers comprehensive and grounded perspectives of "heritage that hurts". The handbook adopts a progressive and thematic approach, including critical accounts of dark tourism history, dark tourism philosophy and theory, dark tourism in society and culture, dark tourism and heritage landscapes, the "dark tourist" experience, and the business of dark tourism.

Establishing a link between tourism studies and development studies, it considers what is meant by "development", the processes through which development may be achieved and, in particular, a number of fundamental issues related to the use of tourism as a development agent. In so doing, it challenges conventional thinking about the relationship between tourism and development.
