Text 22A4-I 

        Tourism cannot be treated in isolation since it embodies all tourism practices in the system they operate in. Thus, tourism is a complex sociocultural, economic, and political phenomenon that touches all levels of society. The investigation of tourism’s role in society, the tourism system’s effects on nature, tourism spaces, objects, practices, relationships, and tourist typologies demand systematic sociological investigations. It is important to consider the whole macro system through its members’ social, political, cultural, and economic interactions. In such a social context, both human and nonhuman actors continuously shape and reshape the tourism system, and the tourism system reshapes these actors’ values, attitudes, and behaviors. 

        Researchers examining the sociology of tourism departed from several theoretical perspectives, blended theory and method, and focused on sociological concepts to understand and explain the different aspects of tourism. This group of scholars has been working within the several cores of sociology (like education, family, economy, development, religion, gender, language, migration, social inequalities, labor, and art) and at the margins of emerging interdisciplinary formations, including those crossing many disciplines such as geography, anthropology, economics, political science, psychology, marketing, communication, women’s studies, history, and cultural studies. The sociology of tourism studies engendered transdisciplinary conversations both in academia and in practice, and the results of these studies have created pragmatic changes in tourism practices, habits, and governance.
