Disney Parks and the Construction of American Identity: Tourism, Performance, Anxiety

Focusing primarily on Walt Disney World, in a time of unmatched cultural anxiety, the authors use their influential 'tourist as actor' framework to unpack the ways that Disney parks and their guests co-create performances of implicit Americanness through case studies on music, geography and ecology, sports, families, and politics.
