A critical note on binaries in tourism

Author

Listed:
  • Eriksson, Axel

Abstract

•This research note explores ontological implications of host and guest by inspired the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze.•Binaries are not entirely transcended but scholars must shift focus to other lesser-known binaries.•Assemblages operate in connection with other assemblages but do not transcend binaries.•While having the similar names, scholars should not confuse the different interpretations of assemblages.
