书目名称 | Whiteness, Weddings, and Tourism in the Caribbean | 副标题 | Paradise for Sale | 编辑 | Karen Wilkes | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | This book examines myths of the Caribbean as paradise. These myths are used as a backdrop to market destination white weddings. The book is interdisciplinary and uses historical and contemporary visual texts to examine the way in which middle class white womanhood assumes a decorative, privileged, and elevated position within contemporary images of destination weddings in the Caribbean. To facilitate the notion of the Caribbean as paradise, the book argues that this production of luxury is highly dependent on the positioning of blackness as servitude. To this end, tourism marketing appropriates the Caribbean’s history of slavery; transforming the region into a site where whiteness can consume black labor as luxury. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Whiteness; destination weddings; Caribbean tourism; postcolonial studies; intersectionality | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-50391-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-50391-6 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
