旅游安全-确保游客安全以维持旅游业的做法-已成为一种高度相关和强有力的全球安全做法。许多组织、政府、行业利益相关者、顾问和学者都声称旅游安全是一种“双赢”的安全实践,支持所有人的全球可持续发展。但这是真的吗?本文分两个步骤对这一主张进行了质疑。首先,它提出了一个国际政治社会学启发的方法,将安全理论化为一种由权力的持续殖民性塑造的全球实践,其次,它使用这种方法来选择,连接和分析不同的旅游批判性研究,以研究全球南部旅游安全的出现,制定和后果。总之,对旅游业的批判性研究表明,旅游安全是一种新自由主义的安全做法,集中了国际游客-通常是白色西方游客-的恐惧和脆弱性,因此,它正在(重新)产生不平等、不安全和不流动的殖民性。因此,对旅游业的批判性研究表明,旅游业安全远远不是一种“双赢”的安全实践,而是一种与全球可持续发展背道而驰的无休止的证券化过程。
Touristic security – the practice of securing tourists to sustain tourism – has become a highly pertinent and powerful global security practice. Many organisations, governments, industry stakeholders, consultants, and scholars claim touristic security to be a ‘win-win’ security practice supportive of global sustainable development for all. But is this true? This paper interrogates this claim in two steps. First, it sets out an international political sociology inspired approach to theorising security as a global practice shaped by and shaping of the continued coloniality of power, and, second, it uses this approach to select, connect, and analyse diverse critical studies of tourism for the emergence, enactment, and consequences of touristic security in the Global South. Put together, the critical studies of tourism analysed suggest that touristic security is a neoliberal security practice that centres international – often white Western – tourists’ fears and vulnerabilities, and, following, that it is (re)producing the coloniality of inequalities, insecurities, and immobilities. Far from a ‘win-win’ security practice, then, critical studies of tourism imply that touristic security is feeding into an endless process of (in)securitisation that is antithetical to global sustainable development.
