Remaking a case for Philosophic Practitioner education

Stu Hayes and Hazel Tucker

Annals of Tourism Research, 2022, vol. 94, issue C

Abstract: In 2002 John Tribe made an impassioned plea in the Annals of Tourism Research for Philosophic Practitioner education, education designed to equip graduates to think and act in the best interests of tourism business and the ‘wider tourism society and world’. In recent times, however, ongoing socio-ecological issues related to tourism arguably point to a lack of Philosophic Practice. In this context, we examined the experiences of students and staff involved with teaching and learning for Philosophic Practice and highlight the need to (re)commit to the key principles underpinning Philosophic Practitioner education. The potential limitations of human-centred conceptualisations of Philosophic Practitioner education are also discussed and addressed.
