旅游真实性理论的后现代转向

The Postmodern Turn of Tourism Authenticity Theory

旅游真实性是旅游社会学研究中的一个重要论题,迄今学术界已形成大量理论观点。从认识论和研究者的角色立场来看,旅游真实性理论发展存在后现代转向的趋势:在认识论方面,从关注客体真实性转向消解客体真实性或关注主体及主体间性,从关注单向的真实性转向关注互动的真实性;研究者的角色,经历了从批评旅游者行为正当性的“立法者”立场向承认和解释旅游行动者多元化选择正当性的“阐释者”立场的转变。当然,此理论的后现代转向并不是总体性的后现代理论定位,而是呈现为理论的多元并存。同时,这种转向并不是理论自身的运动,而是学者对旅游者选择多样性进行回应的结果。

Tourism authenticity is an important theoretical problem in the study of tourism sociology.And a large number of theoretical points about it have been pointed.After combing the related literatures,we can find that there is a development trend of postmodern turn in this theory,this shift embodied in two aspects:the epistemological and researchers’standpoint.From the epistemological point of view,it emphasizes from object authenticity to the decomposition of object authenticity and the focus on the subject authenticity and inter-subject authenticity.And emphasizes from the focus on one-way authenticity to interactive authenticity.The standpoint of tourism authenticity researcher has been changed from“legislators”to“interpreters”.At the end of this paper,it is emphasized that the postmodern turn has not the characteristic of the totalization,but the characteristic of pluralistic coexistence.At the same time,this turn is not the movement of the theory itself,but the consequences of the theorists’responding to the diverse choices of actors.
