In adopting a storytelling approach in this book, authors make sense of tourism planning and policy using a constructivist-interpretive lens. The content and form of the story reflects the authors’ personal identities, worldviews, theoretical frames and ideological positions. Clearly, the stories are subjective and the value of each story is not in its claims to ‘telling the truth’. Instead, the value of the chapters, individually and collectively, is in their impact upon the identity, self-awareness and understandings of readers and how and whether, over time, as the story is read and reread, it creates new insights and new questions.
