Abstract

This research reviews how tourism geography studies in Anglo-American tradition have evolved since 1930s. The purposes of the research are two fold. One is to analyze the change of tourism geographies research trends in terms of research approach and major research themes. The other is to bring out the lessons from the research results for the development of Korean tourism geographies research. For these purposes, the selected papers and texts have been analyzed according to four research approaches: (1) empiricist approach, (2) positivist approach, (3) humanist approach, and (4) critical social theory approach. The major research themes are the explanation of destination through descriptive research in empiricist approach, spatial analysis and evolutionary research in positivist approach, tourist behaviour and place identity in humanist approach, and tourism and consumption in critical social theory approach. It is expected that the development of Anglo-American tourism geographies study will continue in the future because of the growth of tourism industry, the close relation of tourism and geography in nature, and the active contribution of tourism geographers.

본 연구는 영미 관광지리학 분야의 연구경향에 대하여 문헌연구법을 통해 통시적 고찰을 시도했다. 본 논문의 목적은 영미 관광지리학 연구흐름을 연구접근법과 주요 연구주제를 중심으로 고찰하고 연구동향을 파악함으로써, 한국 관광지리학 계에 미치는 시사점을 도출하는 데 있다. 영미 관광지리학 연구흐름의 변화는 지리학 패러다임의 변화와 밀접한 관련을 맺고 있는데, 연구동향의 변화를 크게 구분지어 보면 (1) 경험주의적 접근법, (2) 논리실증주의적 접근법, (3) 인본주의적 접근법, (4) 비판주의적 접근법의 네 가지로 분류된다. 주요 연구주제들로는 경험주의적 접근법에서는 관광지역에 대한 자세한 묘사를 통한 현황설명, 논리실증주의적 접근에서는 공간분석과 진화론적 연구, 인본주의적 접근에서는 관광객 행태, 장소성의 문제, 비판주의적 접근에서는 관광의 상품화, 관광객의 시선 등이다. 최근 영미 관광지리학의 연구경향은 가치중립적인 응용지리학적 연구와 가치지향적인 비판주의적 연구가 맞서는 경향을 보이고 있으며 관광산업의 성장, 지리학과 관광의 밀접한 연관성, 영미 관광지리학자들의 활발한 활동 등으로 인해 관광지리학은 꾸준한 성장을 이룰 것으로 예상된다.
