Specifically, the project examines the potential of two assistive and immersive experiences; virtual reality (VR) and multisensory stimulation environments (MSSE). Findings identify three main areas of knowledge contribution. First, the introduction of VR and MSSE facilitated participants re-engagement and sharing of past experiences as they recalled past family holidays, day trips or everyday practices. Secondly, the combination of the hardware of the VR and MSSE technology with the physical objects of the sensory trays created alternative, multisensual ways of engaging with the experiences presented to participants.

This paper builds on previous literature that has demonstrated how a lack of understanding of what VFR encompasses facilitates the phenomenon to be undervalued and misunderstood. Without a clear conceptual definition, VFR continues to be presented with inconsistent and conflicting parameters, which creates discursive confusion rather than clarity and appreciation. This is important as tourism is often presented as a positive force for economic development in a wide range of communities, and VFR is almost routinely overlooked with high-yield (hotel consuming) markets favoured; this is despite a growing body of literature that has explored the sustainability and positive community impacts of VFR activity and potential. A review of existing definitional work on VFR is provided, and a new conceptual definition is offered. Mobility influenced by a host is first distinguished from other forms of human movement; VFR is then positioned as a form of mobility influenced by a host that includes face-to-face interaction between a host and visitor who have a preexisting relationship. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="77165656"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="77165656"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165656; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=77165656]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=77165656]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165656; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='77165656']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=77165656]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":77165656,"title":"Towards a new definition for “visiting friends and relatives”","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/77165656/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="77165299"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/77165299/Aspirational_intimacy_in_visiting_friends_and_relatives"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Aspirational intimacy in visiting friends and relatives" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/84608659/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/77165299/Aspirational_intimacy_in_visiting_friends_and_relatives">Aspirational intimacy in visiting friends and relatives</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a> and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://biocongroup.academia.edu/ScottCohen">Scott Cohen</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Annals of Tourism Research</span><span>, 2022</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Tourism research on visiting friends and relatives remains normative and family-centric.

The literature has yet to question the normative underpinnings of relationships and remains oriented around physical proximity. This paper therefore aims to understand the shifting qualities and intimacies of migrant personal relationships developed across diverse means for maintaining relationships. It draws from a multi-sited ethnography that includes interviews from migrants and friends and family living at a distance. Framed through theory on personal relationships and affect, we introduce the concept 'aspirational intimacy'. This shows how important relationships become oriented around aspirations of normalcy and belonging that construct shared capacities to feel connected, while imagining alternative possibilities for relationships and life-course trajectories.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="68a9f09e5b8eac7a02c35deed4541319" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":84608659,"asset_id":77165299,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84608659/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="77165299"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="77165299"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165299;

The image of migrants in many western contexts is one of being poor or ethnically and religiously different. This image in turn often frames migrants as being non-local. However, in reality, the local is not perceived and constructed through predetermined or essentialist subjectivity but through processes of constructing and negotiating borders of identity and place that incite people to shift between subject positions of local/visitor, host/guest, or tourist/migrant. This paper problematises the rigidity of social positions that underpin images of migrant populations as the other by examining the visiting friends and relatives (or VFR) practices of migrant residents in Malmo, Sweden. Whereas many studies of VFR build on a tourism-migration dialectic and focus on migrants, this study uses mobility politics as an analytical lens to examine both migrant residents and their friends and family. This focus sheds light on how family and friend&#39;s mobility politics are connected to the perception and construction of the local, local selves, and others. The research findings demonstrate that migrant residents are not the other but are an embedded part of the city regularly attracting visitors to the area. Furthermore, during visits, lines between host and guest, migrant and tourist, and visitor and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by the rules of hospitality, attribute new embodied meanings to tourist and migrant mobilities that strengthen and bound the imaginations of residents and visitors to transnational networks. The conclusions from the study also help shed light on migrant integration and potential avenues for working with integration in the future.

Framed by sociotechnical transitions theory, we introduce the concept of ‘shadowcasting’ to show how tourism knowledge disseminated through the media, combined with public comments on its reporting, cast shadows that co-constitute imagined futures. We illustrate shadowcasting through a mixed method approach that demonstrates how media reporting and public comments on a recent paper on autonomous vehicles in tourism emerged and diverged from the original paper. Our findings reveal that issues around sex and terrorism were sensationalised, generating diverse public discourses that challenge linear visions of future transport efficiency. Our concluding discussion indicates other tourism research contexts that are most inclined to shadowcasting.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="653f582c5ee2ea9a07f8d37926f30e2b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":81876418,"asset_id":73304312,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/81876418/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="73304312"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="73304312"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73304312;

In order to make working with tourism easier, the tourism industry often uses criteria and definitions that can limit understandings of tourism. An example is an often-common view in the tourism industry of visiting friends and relative (VFR) as unimportant. The purpose of this thesis is to offer research showing why VFR can be important to the tourism industry. This thesis presents a research project that uses ethnography and cultural analysis to study the visits of friends and family of foreign-born residents in the city Malmö. The focus is on how residents and visitors attempt to articulate questions such as, are visits tourism trips or family and friends get togethers? How does one present Malmö to friends and family so they feel welcome, and hopefully comeback? By focusing on mobility, the cultural processes that guide answers to these questions are revealed. The research demonstrates that during visits lines between tourism and migration and tourist and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by rules of hospitality, switch between roles of host and guests as they co-create complex place experiences that draw on aspects of daily life and tourism and migration. These experiences are explained as residents and visitors attempting to construct a new sense of place based on mobility. The research also demonstrates insight into what consumers can value as tourists as well making the case that the tourism industry can benefit by working with different forms of mobility.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="a645e4848641d536937d4220690838e6" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":75661859,"asset_id":63141500,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75661859/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="63141500"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="63141500"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 63141500;

We conclude that sharing is both fuel for stem cell travel, through patients sharing information and experiences online, and also a means to combat stem cell travel, through doctors and patients sharing the construction of treatment. This understanding offers a more realistic and ethical lens through which to view the doctor-patient relationship and combat stem travel than has been previously asserted. In making this argument, the article combines both a bioethicist and a cultural sciences approach.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="58084829"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="58084829"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 58084829; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=58084829]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=58084829]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 58084829; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='58084829']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=58084829]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":58084829,"title":"Managing Hope and Spiritual Distress: The Centrality of the Doctor Patient Relationship in Combatting Stem Cell Travel","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/58084829/Managing_Hope_and_Spiritual_Distress_The_Centrality_of_the_Doctor_Patient_Relationship_in_Combatting_Stem_Cell_Travel","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="34096502"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Towards a new definition for "visiting friends and relatives"" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_">Towards a new definition for "visiting friends and relatives"</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a>, <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://ryerson.academia.edu/TomGriffin">Tom Griffin</a>, and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://independent.academia.edu/JulioRMunoz">Julio R.

This paper builds on previous literature that has demonstrated how a lack of understanding of what VFR encompasses facilitates the phenomenon to be undervalued and misunderstood. Without a clear conceptual definition, VFR continues to be presented with inconsistent and conflicting parameters, which creates discursive confusion rather than clarity and appreciation. This is important as tourism is often presented as a positive force for economic development in a wide range of communities, and VFR is almost routinely overlooked with high-yield (hotel consuming) markets favoured; this is despite a growing body of literature that has explored the sustainability and positive community impacts of VFR activity and potential. A review of existing definitional work on VFR is provided, and a new conceptual definition is offered. Mobility influenced by a host is first distinguished from other forms of human movement; VFR is then positioned as a form of mobility influenced by a host that includes face-to-face interaction between a host and visitor who have a preexisting relationship. Implications for future research and practice are discussed</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34096502"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34096502"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34096502; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34096502]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34096502]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34096502; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='34096502']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=34096502]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":34096502,"title":"Towards a new definition for \"visiting friends and relatives\"","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="30965370"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/30965370/Making_Palpable_Connections_Objects_in_Migrants_Transnational_Lives"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Making Palpable Connections : Objects in Migrants’ Transnational Lives" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/30965370/Making_Palpable_Connections_Objects_in_Migrants_Transnational_Lives">Making Palpable Connections : Objects in Migrants’ Transnational Lives</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a> and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://independent.academia.edu/MajaPovrzanovicFrykman">Maja Povrzanovic Frykman</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This paper examines the role objects play in constructing the transnational social spaces in whic...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This paper examines the role objects play in constructing the transnational social spaces in which migrants are embedded.

Current academic research investigating how to combat stem cell travel has yet to offer a complete understanding of the link between patient hope and autonomy, and building or losing trust in medical authorities.  To combat stem cell travel, understanding how to manage patients potential for hope or spiritual distress is crucial (Hyun, 2013). This article argues that re-conceptualizing the doctor patient relationship is important to further grasping how to manage patient hope and spiritual distress. This article promotes a notion of the doctor patient relationship that moves beyond paternalism; instead the doctor patient relationship should be viewed as an encounter where patient autonomy is encouraged and guided by physicians through the joint co-creation of treatment. We conclude that sharing is both fuel for stem cell travel, through patients sharing information and experiences online, and also a means to combat stem cell travel, through doctors and patients sharing the construction of treatment. This understanding offers a more realistic and ethical lens through which to view the doctor-patient relationship and combat stem travel than has been previously asserted. In making this argument, the article combines both a bioethicist and a cultural sciences approach.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="11335066"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="11335066"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 11335066; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=11335066]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=11335066]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 11335066; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='11335066']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=11335066]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":11335066,"title":"Managing Hope and Spiritual Distress: The Centrality of the Doctor Patient Relationship in Combatting Stem Cell Travel","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/11335066/Managing_Hope_and_Spiritual_Distress_The_Centrality_of_the_Doctor_Patient_Relationship_in_Combatting_Stem_Cell_Travel","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="8523218"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities">Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Humbracht, M.

The image of migrants in many western contexts is one of being poor or ethnically and religiously different. This image in turn often frames migrants as being non-local. However, in reality, the local is not perceived and constructed through pre-determined or essentialist subjectivity but through processes of constructing and negotiating borders of identity and place that incite people to shift between subject positions of local/visitor, host/guest or tourist/migrant. This paper problematizes the rigidity of social positions that underpin images of migrant populations as the Other by examining the visiting friends and relatives (or VFR) practices of migrant residents in Malmö, Sweden. While many studies of VFR build on a tourism-migration dialectic and focus on migrants, this study uses mobility politics as an analytical lens to examine both migrant residents and their friends and family. This focus sheds light on how family and friend’s mobility politics are connected to the perception and construction of the local, local selves and Others.  The research findings demonstrate that migrant residents are not the Other, but are an embedded part of the city regularly attracting visitors to the area. Furthermore, during visits lines between host and guest, migrant and tourist and visitor and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by the rules of hospitality, attribute new embodied meanings to tourist and migrant mobilities that strengthen and bound the imaginations of residents and visitors to transnational networks. The conclusions from the study also help shed light on migrant integration and potential avenues for working with integration in the future.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="8523218"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="8523218"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8523218; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8523218]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8523218]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8523218; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='8523218']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=8523218]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":8523218,"title":"Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="4781333"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/4781333/State_of_the_Art_Report_on_Stem_Cell_Travel"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of State of the Art Report on Stem Cell Travel" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/32086631/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/4781333/State_of_the_Art_Report_on_Stem_Cell_Travel">State of the Art Report on Stem Cell Travel</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences, Lund University</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Stem Cell travel, commonly referred to as ‘stem cell tourism’, is a relatively new phenomenon tha...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Stem Cell travel, commonly referred to as ‘stem cell tourism’, is a relatively new phenomenon that has already garnered significant interest from a large field of actors. Stem cell travel refers to a form of medical mobility where patients from around the world travel to clinics to be treated with unproven or experimental stem cell interventions for a wide variety of neurodegenerative diseases and debilitating disorders. The stem cell clinics employ a range of stem cell types and techniques that are often similar despite diseases or conditions having distinct etiologies. The clinics attract patients by utilizing on-line marketing strategies that often downplay the potential risks of treatments while also attempting to take advantage of the hype built up in the western media over the potential benefit of stem cell therapies. Stem cell travel ties together a number of salient issues in modernity that are taking shape across areas ranging from public health and governance to biotech economies and travel for health and leisure. This report summarizes the issue and delineates the context in which stem cell travel has developed and then moves on to provide an overview of the approaches taken by various actors who have begun to investigate stem cell travel. The report argues that stem cell centers are created through the formation of techno imagined communities embedded in globalized knowledge economies. When seen in this context, the academic literature has been particularly useful in delineating the problems that arise from attempting to govern and regulate stem cell travel on a global scale. The core difficulties in creating regulation arise from a mutually reinforcing and contradictory political economy of hope and hype that is generated from patients, physicians, and researchers attempts to construct notions of health. The report concludes by arguing that more research is needed into patient trips to clinics abroad and more applied research into the changing nature of the doctor patient relationship that will better allow for the creation of tools for physicians understand and manage patient health.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="2048a4a9518ccff21e75394974927dda" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":32086631,"asset_id":4781333,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32086631/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="4781333"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="4781333"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 4781333;

Physical and digital VFR (visiting friends and relatives) have been viewed through a continuum – on one side there is a rosy, unshaken view of the social that has privileged ethnic norms and analytical separations of kinship and friendship and moral and market relations.

We identify the ways in which virtual mobility can facilitate reconnection with recreational environments. Specifically, the project examines the potential of two assistive and immersive experiences; virtual reality (VR) and multisensory stimulation environments (MSSE). Findings identify three main areas of knowledge contribution. First, the introduction of VR and MSSE facilitated participants re-engagement and sharing of past experiences as they recalled past family holidays, day trips or everyday practices. Secondly, the combination of the hardware of the VR and MSSE technology with the physical objects of the sensory trays created alternative, multisensual ways of engaging with the experiences presented to participants.

This paper builds on previous literature that has demonstrated how a lack of understanding of what VFR encompasses facilitates the phenomenon to be undervalued and misunderstood. Without a clear conceptual definition, VFR continues to be presented with inconsistent and conflicting parameters, which creates discursive confusion rather than clarity and appreciation. This is important as tourism is often presented as a positive force for economic development in a wide range of communities, and VFR is almost routinely overlooked with high-yield (hotel consuming) markets favoured; this is despite a growing body of literature that has explored the sustainability and positive community impacts of VFR activity and potential. A review of existing definitional work on VFR is provided, and a new conceptual definition is offered. Mobility influenced by a host is first distinguished from other forms of human movement; VFR is then positioned as a form of mobility influenced by a host that includes face-to-face interaction between a host and visitor who have a preexisting relationship. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="77165656"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="77165656"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165656; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=77165656]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=77165656]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165656; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='77165656']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=77165656]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":77165656,"title":"Towards a new definition for “visiting friends and relatives”","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/77165656/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="77165299"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/77165299/Aspirational_intimacy_in_visiting_friends_and_relatives"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Aspirational intimacy in visiting friends and relatives" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/84608659/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/77165299/Aspirational_intimacy_in_visiting_friends_and_relatives">Aspirational intimacy in visiting friends and relatives</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a> and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://biocongroup.academia.edu/ScottCohen">Scott Cohen</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Annals of Tourism Research</span><span>, 2022</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Tourism research on visiting friends and relatives remains normative and family-centric.

The literature has yet to question the normative underpinnings of relationships and remains oriented around physical proximity. This paper therefore aims to understand the shifting qualities and intimacies of migrant personal relationships developed across diverse means for maintaining relationships. It draws from a multi-sited ethnography that includes interviews from migrants and friends and family living at a distance. Framed through theory on personal relationships and affect, we introduce the concept 'aspirational intimacy'. This shows how important relationships become oriented around aspirations of normalcy and belonging that construct shared capacities to feel connected, while imagining alternative possibilities for relationships and life-course trajectories.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="68a9f09e5b8eac7a02c35deed4541319" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":84608659,"asset_id":77165299,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84608659/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="77165299"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="77165299"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 77165299;

The image of migrants in many western contexts is one of being poor or ethnically and religiously different. This image in turn often frames migrants as being non-local. However, in reality, the local is not perceived and constructed through predetermined or essentialist subjectivity but through processes of constructing and negotiating borders of identity and place that incite people to shift between subject positions of local/visitor, host/guest, or tourist/migrant. This paper problematises the rigidity of social positions that underpin images of migrant populations as the other by examining the visiting friends and relatives (or VFR) practices of migrant residents in Malmo, Sweden. Whereas many studies of VFR build on a tourism-migration dialectic and focus on migrants, this study uses mobility politics as an analytical lens to examine both migrant residents and their friends and family. This focus sheds light on how family and friend&#39;s mobility politics are connected to the perception and construction of the local, local selves, and others. The research findings demonstrate that migrant residents are not the other but are an embedded part of the city regularly attracting visitors to the area. Furthermore, during visits, lines between host and guest, migrant and tourist, and visitor and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by the rules of hospitality, attribute new embodied meanings to tourist and migrant mobilities that strengthen and bound the imaginations of residents and visitors to transnational networks. The conclusions from the study also help shed light on migrant integration and potential avenues for working with integration in the future.

Instead of offering insight into feelings of home, as with many studies, the findings shed light on how objects establish palpable connections between people and places.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="73304319"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="73304319"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73304319; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=73304319]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=73304319]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73304319; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='73304319']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=73304319]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":73304319,"title":"Making Palpable Connections : Objects in Migrants’ Transnational Lives","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/73304319/Making_Palpable_Connections_Objects_in_Migrants_Transnational_Lives","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="73304312"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/73304312/Shadowcasting_tourism_knowledge_through_media_Self_driving_sex_cars"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Shadowcasting tourism knowledge through media: Self-driving sex cars?" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/81876418/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/73304312/Shadowcasting_tourism_knowledge_through_media_Self_driving_sex_cars">Shadowcasting tourism knowledge through media: Self-driving sex cars?</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Annals of Tourism Research</span><span>, 2020</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Tourism is central to late-modern life, and tourism research that threatens this centrality is pr...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Tourism is central to late-modern life, and tourism research that threatens this centrality is prone to media attention. Framed by sociotechnical transitions theory, we introduce the concept of ‘shadowcasting’ to show how tourism knowledge disseminated through the media, combined with public comments on its reporting, cast shadows that co-constitute imagined futures. We illustrate shadowcasting through a mixed method approach that demonstrates how media reporting and public comments on a recent paper on autonomous vehicles in tourism emerged and diverged from the original paper. Our findings reveal that issues around sex and terrorism were sensationalised, generating diverse public discourses that challenge linear visions of future transport efficiency. Our concluding discussion indicates other tourism research contexts that are most inclined to shadowcasting.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="653f582c5ee2ea9a07f8d37926f30e2b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":81876418,"asset_id":73304312,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/81876418/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="73304312"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="73304312"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73304312;

In order to make working with tourism easier, the tourism industry often uses criteria and definitions that can limit understandings of tourism. An example is an often-common view in the tourism industry of visiting friends and relative (VFR) as unimportant. The purpose of this thesis is to offer research showing why VFR can be important to the tourism industry. This thesis presents a research project that uses ethnography and cultural analysis to study the visits of friends and family of foreign-born residents in the city Malmö. The focus is on how residents and visitors attempt to articulate questions such as, are visits tourism trips or family and friends get togethers? How does one present Malmö to friends and family so they feel welcome, and hopefully comeback? By focusing on mobility, the cultural processes that guide answers to these questions are revealed. The research demonstrates that during visits lines between tourism and migration and tourist and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by rules of hospitality, switch between roles of host and guests as they co-create complex place experiences that draw on aspects of daily life and tourism and migration. These experiences are explained as residents and visitors attempting to construct a new sense of place based on mobility. The research also demonstrates insight into what consumers can value as tourists as well making the case that the tourism industry can benefit by working with different forms of mobility.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="a645e4848641d536937d4220690838e6" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":75661859,"asset_id":63141500,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/75661859/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="63141500"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="63141500"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 63141500;

Current academic research investigating how to combat stem cell travel has yet to offer a complete understanding of the link between patient hope and autonomy, and building or losing trust in medical authorities. To combat stem cell travel, understanding how to manage patients’ potential for hope or spiritual distress is crucial (Hyun, 2013). This article argues that re-conceptualizing the doctor-patient relationship is important to further grasp how to manage patient hope and spiritual distress.

Current academic research investigating how to combat stem cell travel has yet to offer a complete understanding of the link between patient hope and autonomy, and building or losing trust in medical authorities. To combat stem cell travel, understanding how to manage patients potential for hope or spiritual distress is crucial (Hyun, 2013). This article argues that re-conceptualizing the doctor patient relationship is important to further grasping how to manage patient hope and spiritual distress. This article promotes a notion of the doctor patient relationship that moves beyond paternalism; instead the doctor patient relationship should be viewed as an encounter where patient autonomy is encouraged and guided by physicians through the joint co-creation of treatment. We conclude that sharing is both fuel for stem cell travel, through patients sharing information and experiences online, and also a means to combat stem cell travel, through doctors and patients sharing the construction of treatment. This understanding offers a more realistic and ethical lens through which to view the doctor-patient relationship and combat stem travel than has been previously asserted. In making this argument, the article combines both a bioethicist and a cultural sciences approach.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="58084829"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="58084829"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 58084829; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=58084829]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=58084829]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 58084829; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='58084829']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=58084829]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":58084829,"title":"Managing Hope and Spiritual Distress: The Centrality of the Doctor Patient Relationship in Combatting Stem Cell Travel","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/58084829/Managing_Hope_and_Spiritual_Distress_The_Centrality_of_the_Doctor_Patient_Relationship_in_Combatting_Stem_Cell_Travel","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="34096502"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Towards a new definition for "visiting friends and relatives"" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_">Towards a new definition for "visiting friends and relatives"</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a>, <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://ryerson.academia.edu/TomGriffin">Tom Griffin</a>, and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://independent.academia.edu/JulioRMunoz">Julio R.

This paper builds on previous literature that has demonstrated how a lack of understanding of what VFR encompasses facilitates the phenomenon to be undervalued and misunderstood. Without a clear conceptual definition, VFR continues to be presented with inconsistent and conflicting parameters, which creates discursive confusion rather than clarity and appreciation. This is important as tourism is often presented as a positive force for economic development in a wide range of communities, and VFR is almost routinely overlooked with high-yield (hotel consuming) markets favoured; this is despite a growing body of literature that has explored the sustainability and positive community impacts of VFR activity and potential. A review of existing definitional work on VFR is provided, and a new conceptual definition is offered. Mobility influenced by a host is first distinguished from other forms of human movement; VFR is then positioned as a form of mobility influenced by a host that includes face-to-face interaction between a host and visitor who have a preexisting relationship. Implications for future research and practice are discussed</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34096502"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34096502"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34096502; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34096502]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=34096502]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34096502; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='34096502']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=34096502]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":34096502,"title":"Towards a new definition for \"visiting friends and relatives\"","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/34096502/Towards_a_new_definition_for_visiting_friends_and_relatives_","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="30965370"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/30965370/Making_Palpable_Connections_Objects_in_Migrants_Transnational_Lives"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Making Palpable Connections : Objects in Migrants’ Transnational Lives" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/30965370/Making_Palpable_Connections_Objects_in_Migrants_Transnational_Lives">Making Palpable Connections : Objects in Migrants’ Transnational Lives</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--coauthors"><span>by </span><span><a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht">Michael Humbracht</a> and <a class="" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-authors" href="https://independent.academia.edu/MajaPovrzanovicFrykman">Maja Povrzanovic Frykman</a></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This paper examines the role objects play in constructing the transnational social spaces in whic...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This paper examines the role objects play in constructing the transnational social spaces in which migrants are embedded.

Current academic research investigating how to combat stem cell travel has yet to offer a complete understanding of the link between patient hope and autonomy, and building or losing trust in medical authorities.  To combat stem cell travel, understanding how to manage patients potential for hope or spiritual distress is crucial (Hyun, 2013). This article argues that re-conceptualizing the doctor patient relationship is important to further grasping how to manage patient hope and spiritual distress. This article promotes a notion of the doctor patient relationship that moves beyond paternalism; instead the doctor patient relationship should be viewed as an encounter where patient autonomy is encouraged and guided by physicians through the joint co-creation of treatment. We conclude that sharing is both fuel for stem cell travel, through patients sharing information and experiences online, and also a means to combat stem cell travel, through doctors and patients sharing the construction of treatment. This understanding offers a more realistic and ethical lens through which to view the doctor-patient relationship and combat stem travel than has been previously asserted. In making this argument, the article combines both a bioethicist and a cultural sciences approach.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="11335066"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="11335066"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 11335066; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=11335066]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=11335066]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 11335066; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='11335066']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=11335066]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":11335066,"title":"Managing Hope and Spiritual Distress: The Centrality of the Doctor Patient Relationship in Combatting Stem Cell Travel","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/11335066/Managing_Hope_and_Spiritual_Distress_The_Centrality_of_the_Doctor_Patient_Relationship_in_Combatting_Stem_Cell_Travel","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="8523218"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities">Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Humbracht, M.

The image of migrants in many western contexts is one of being poor or ethnically and religiously different. This image in turn often frames migrants as being non-local. However, in reality, the local is not perceived and constructed through pre-determined or essentialist subjectivity but through processes of constructing and negotiating borders of identity and place that incite people to shift between subject positions of local/visitor, host/guest or tourist/migrant. This paper problematizes the rigidity of social positions that underpin images of migrant populations as the Other by examining the visiting friends and relatives (or VFR) practices of migrant residents in Malmö, Sweden. While many studies of VFR build on a tourism-migration dialectic and focus on migrants, this study uses mobility politics as an analytical lens to examine both migrant residents and their friends and family. This focus sheds light on how family and friend’s mobility politics are connected to the perception and construction of the local, local selves and Others.  The research findings demonstrate that migrant residents are not the Other, but are an embedded part of the city regularly attracting visitors to the area. Furthermore, during visits lines between host and guest, migrant and tourist and visitor and local are blurred. Residents and visitors, guided by the rules of hospitality, attribute new embodied meanings to tourist and migrant mobilities that strengthen and bound the imaginations of residents and visitors to transnational networks. The conclusions from the study also help shed light on migrant integration and potential avenues for working with integration in the future.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="8523218"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="8523218"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8523218; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8523218]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=8523218]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 8523218; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='8523218']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=8523218]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":8523218,"title":"Reimagining Transnational Relations: the Embodied Politics of Visiting Friends and Relatives Mobilities","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/8523218/Reimagining_Transnational_Relations_the_Embodied_Politics_of_Visiting_Friends_and_Relatives_Mobilities","owner_id":600555,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":600555,"first_name":"Michael","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Humbracht","page_name":"MichaelHumbracht","domain_name":"surrey","created_at":"2011-07-24T20:11:49.858-07:00","display_name":"Michael Humbracht","url":"https://surrey.academia.edu/MichaelHumbracht"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="4781333"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/4781333/State_of_the_Art_Report_on_Stem_Cell_Travel"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of State of the Art Report on Stem Cell Travel" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/32086631/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/4781333/State_of_the_Art_Report_on_Stem_Cell_Travel">State of the Art Report on Stem Cell Travel</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences, Lund University</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">Stem Cell travel, commonly referred to as ‘stem cell tourism’, is a relatively new phenomenon tha...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">Stem Cell travel, commonly referred to as ‘stem cell tourism’, is a relatively new phenomenon that has already garnered significant interest from a large field of actors. Stem cell travel refers to a form of medical mobility where patients from around the world travel to clinics to be treated with unproven or experimental stem cell interventions for a wide variety of neurodegenerative diseases and debilitating disorders. The stem cell clinics employ a range of stem cell types and techniques that are often similar despite diseases or conditions having distinct etiologies. The clinics attract patients by utilizing on-line marketing strategies that often downplay the potential risks of treatments while also attempting to take advantage of the hype built up in the western media over the potential benefit of stem cell therapies. Stem cell travel ties together a number of salient issues in modernity that are taking shape across areas ranging from public health and governance to biotech economies and travel for health and leisure. This report summarizes the issue and delineates the context in which stem cell travel has developed and then moves on to provide an overview of the approaches taken by various actors who have begun to investigate stem cell travel. The report argues that stem cell centers are created through the formation of techno imagined communities embedded in globalized knowledge economies. When seen in this context, the academic literature has been particularly useful in delineating the problems that arise from attempting to govern and regulate stem cell travel on a global scale. The core difficulties in creating regulation arise from a mutually reinforcing and contradictory political economy of hope and hype that is generated from patients, physicians, and researchers attempts to construct notions of health. The report concludes by arguing that more research is needed into patient trips to clinics abroad and more applied research into the changing nature of the doctor patient relationship that will better allow for the creation of tools for physicians understand and manage patient health.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="2048a4a9518ccff21e75394974927dda" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":32086631,"asset_id":4781333,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32086631/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="4781333"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="4781333"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 4781333;
