Abstract
Travel journalism is experiencing a continued period of great change and transition. The economic model of print journalism is increasingly unsustainable in the context of freely accessible, and often user generated, online content. It is in this context that this chapter sets out the aims of this book. Specifically, it outlines the ways in which it seeks to explore how this context of transition is changing the representational characteristics and practices of the travel journalism. That is, how travel journalism represents the world and how technological development and the emergence of new ways of monetizing content are shaping the representational practices and potential of this form of journalism. It outlines the ways in which each chapter addresses aspects of these issues. This discussion is contextualized by a review of existing studies of travel journalism from the field of journalism studies as well as other cognate areas.
