摘要

研究旅行、日常生活和毒品之间的关系将有助于理解这些游客为什么会吸毒。因此，本文旨在探讨游客在前往目的地时使用毒品的原因和社会行为。为此，本研究采用了非结构化访谈和参与者观察技术，采用了民族志研究方法。在这种情况下，数据是在2016年至2020年间在泰国、柬埔寨、马来西亚、印度尼西亚和土耳其作为毒品目的地收集的。因此，日常生活中的吸毒是为了逃避日常生活和娱乐目的，而旅行中的吸毒则是为了追求幸福。作为追求幸福的结果，毒品游客（作为新部落）从事社会行为，如建立牢固的社会关系，感受自由感，置身于娱乐氛围中，体验当地文化。因此，毒品游客将旅行视为一个从逃离到寻找的过程。

From escape to seeking: understanding drug tourists

ABSTRACT Studying the relations between travel, daily life, and drugs will help understand why these tourists use drugs. Hence, the article aims to explore the social behaviors that shape the reasons and causes tourists to use drugs while traveling to a destination. For this purpose, unstructured interview and participant observation techniques were used in the study, applying the ethnography research approach. In this context, data were collected in Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Turkey as drug destinations between 2016 and 2020. Accordingly, while drug use in daily life is for escaping from daily life and recreational purposes, drug use while traveling occurs within the pursuit of happiness. As a result of their pursuit of happiness, drug tourists (as neo tribes) engage in social behaviors such as building strong social relations, feeling a sense of freedom, being in an entertaining atmosphere, and living the local culture. As a result, drug tourists see travel as a process from escape to seeking.

期刊介绍： Journal of Tourism and Cultural Change ( JTCC ) is a peer-reviewed, transdisciplinary and transnational journal. It focuses on critically examining the relationships, tensions, representations, conflicts and possibilities that exist between tourism/travel and culture/cultures in an increasingly complex global context. JTCC provides a forum for debate against the backdrop of local, regional, national and transnational understandings of identity and difference. Economic restructuring, recognitions of the cultural dimension of biodiversity and sustainable development, contests regarding the positive and negative impact of patterns of tourist behaviour on cultural diversity, and transcultural strivings - all provide an important focus for JTCC . Global capitalism, in its myriad forms engages with multiple ''ways of being'', generating new relationships, re-evaluating existing, and challenging ways of knowing and being. Tourists and the tourism industry continue to find inventive ways to commodify, transform, present/re-present and consume material culture. JTCC seeks to widen and deepen understandings of such changing relationships and stimulate critical debate by: -Adopting a multidisciplinary approach -Encouraging deep and critical approaches to policy and practice -Embracing an inclusive definition of culture -Focusing on the concept, processes and meanings of change -Encouraging trans-national/transcultural perspectives
