Hi,  I read an article recently on visits to battle sites in Kosovo
being
what he termed ‘moral tourism’. I am interested in exploring this
argument
in respect to the Balkans ands wondered if anybody has been doing any
work
in this geographical area or on this subject  and can point me to any
publications…apologies if I have missed an earlier relevant post but
been of
the of the DT circuit for a bit there. Also grateful for a reminder of
the
date of the conference at UCLAN next year…yes there is always one who
deletes too soon…
