Providing a platform for self-transformation: Existential authentication and the inward gaze
This study investigates tourism operators' on-site organizational practices and their role in facilitating tourists' self-transformation. Drawing on a participant observation in a volunteer tourism project, the study identifies two intertwined practices and places them within the framework of “authentication.” First, the organization constructs volunteering sites as authentic while encouraging volunteers to experience that authenticity. Then, against this backdrop, the organization instructs volunteers to gaze inward and connect to their true selves. Together, these practices demonstrate a deliberate existential authentication that involves a particular self-directed gaze, named here as the inward gaze. The study highlights the analytical utility of existential authentication and the inward gaze in understanding how tourism operators sustain a platform for self-transformation.
期刊介绍：
The Annals of Tourism Research is a scholarly journal that focuses on academic perspectives related to tourism. The journal defines tourism as a global economic activity that involves travel behavior, management and marketing activities of service industries catering to consumer demand, the effects of tourism on communities, and policy and governance at local, national, and international levels. While the journal aims to strike a balance between theory and application, its primary focus is on developing theoretical constructs that bridge the gap between business and the social and behavioral sciences. The disciplinary areas covered in the journal include, but are not limited to, service industries management, marketing science, consumer marketing, decision-making and behavior, business ethics, economics and forecasting, environment, geography and development, education and knowledge development, political science and administration, consumer-focused psychology, and anthropology and sociology.
