Tourism in (Post)socialist Eastern EuropeFootnote^*

* These papers stem from the session of the same title organized by Nelson Graburn and Magdalena Banaszkiewicz as Panel P0004 for the European Association for Social Anthropology which took place 3 August 2014 in Tallinn, Estonia. The triple session panel of 12 papers was derived from the 17 submitted to the organizers. These were presented with discussant Dr Svetlana Ryzhakova (Russian Academy of Social Sciences). The present papers were selected from those available after the conference for the JTCC with the additional advice of Sabina Owsianowska. Nelson Graburn wishes to thank Drs Banaszkiewicz and Owsianowska for their hospitality during the International Scientific Conference: ‘Anthropology of Tourism – Heritage and Perspectives’ in June 2015 during which time we had an opportunity to review the papers ad direction of this volume. Ideas in this introduction may stem from the original papers and the discussion in Tallinn in 2014, further communications with the authors and editors and especially during the 2015 conference in Cracow.
