The world is entering the Third Millennium in which great changes are expected in all areas of human interest, life, and activity. These changes have been brought on by past and present man-made events, which have had both positive and negative consequences. The coming millennium will be marked by significant social, political, demographic, and technological changes, and will definitely differ from the last century. The future will bring more leisure time, a higher standard of living, and a better quality of life for us all. Future Tourism Trends examines recent and the most probable changes and answers questions such as: Who is ‘the new tourist’ – if there is one – and what is she looking for? Is the new post-technological era transforming the very essence of travelling? The authors present a wide range of visionary insights, as well as operational takeaways.

Dark tourism involves travel to historical sites associated with death and tragedy. While the main attraction of such sites is their historical value, visitors may also seek to understand other’s pain or achieve educational goals. Dark tourism helps enhance society's capacity to understand and learn from the past. Dark Gastronomy, on the other hand, explores the culinary traditions under dark times such as wars, battles, disasters, epidemics, genocides, famines, and unusual mass deaths. With the guidance of Dark Gastronomy in Times of Tribulation, readers can better understand the role of gastronomy in dark times, such as which foods were accessible and what menus were served to prisoners. This book will appeal to scholars and professionals in history, tourism, sociology, gastronomy, and related fields, as well as those curious about the topic. This book is also ideal for graduate and undergraduate students, human resources consulting companies, university libraries, research institutions, tourism associations, and culinary professionals.
