Abstract Dark tourism is a youngest subset of tourism, introduced only in 1990s. It is a multifaceted and diverse phenomenon. Dark tourism studies carried out in the Western countries succinctly portrays dark tourism as a study of history and heritage, tourism and tragedies. Dark tourism has been identified as niche or special interest tourism. This paper highlights how dark tourism has been theoretically conceptualized in previous studies. As an umbrella concept dark tourism includes than tourism, blackspot tourism, morbid tourism, disaster tourism, conflict tourism, dissonant heritage tourism and others. This paper examines how dark tourism as a distinct form of tourism came into existence in the tourism academia and how it could be understood as a separate subset of tourism in better way. Basically, this study focuses on deathscapes, repressed sadism, commercialization of grief, commoditization of death, dartainment, blackpackers, darsumers and deathseekers capitalism. This study generates curiosity among the readers and researchers to understand and explore the concepts and values of dark tourism in a better way.

  • “Sustainable Tourism- a Tool for Development”
    WORLD TOURISM DAY- 2017 “Sustainable Tourism- a Tool for Development” #TravelEnjoyRespect DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION -TEZPUR UNIVERSITY- UTTARAN- 2017 SPECIAL EDITION FOREWORD Dr. Papori Baruah, Professor and Head Department of Business Administration, Tezpur University I am greatly pleased that the students have come out with yet another edition of ‘Uttaran’ coinciding with the ‘World Tourism Day’. I congratulate the students and the faculty for this effort. The theme Sustainable Tourism is indeed very apt in present day context. We have seen several destinations in the world creating havoc to the environment and the artefacts by unplanned management of tourism activities. This has happened to the snow-capped mountains of the Himalayas to seaside destinations of Thailand. Hence, we must relook at our tourism strategies to conserve the pristine beauty of nature and preserve the heritage for future. We need to shift our focus from gaining mere economic benefit through exploitation of resources to sustainability. I am sure that the articles published in ‘Uttaran’ will at least try to usher some change in the mind-set of the readers. Best wishes.

INTRODUCTION On July 7, 2009, distinguished English conductor Sir Edward Downes traveled with his wife, Lady Joan, to Zurich, Switzerland.1 Three days later, the couple visited the assisted suicide clinic Dignitas, where workers provided them with a clear, liquid drink that would enable them to end their lives together.2 Sir Edward and Lady Joan drank the “cocktail of barbiturates,” lay next to each other holding hands, and died within minutes.3 Lady Joan was seventy-four years old, and in the final stages of terminal cancer; Sir Edward was eighty-five years old, and nearly blind and deaf.4 However, unlike his wife, Sir Edward was not terminally ill.5 This story sparked new controversy surrounding the practices of assisted suicide clinics such as Dignitas, which offer patients the ability to peacefully and painlessly end their lives.

  • The De-Medicalisation of Assisted Death
    THE DE-MEDICALISATION OF ASSISTED DYING: IS A LESS MEDICALISED MODEL THE WAY FORWARD? SUZANNE OST I. INTRODUCTION In this paper, I contend that there are current, notable examples of the de-medicalisation of assisted death. Although assisted dying has been most commonly presented within a medicalised framework - a framework revolving around medical concepts and terminology, illnesses and medical professionals - the notion of de-medicalisation is employed to suggest that there are emerging models of assisted dying in which some medical aspects assumed to be an integral part of the phenomenon are both challenged and diminished. Within the social and legal debate surrounding assisted death, the focus in recent times appears to have moved away from a medic’s involvement in a clinically assisted death to “suicide tourism” and particularly, the matter of relatives “assisting” by making travel arrangements and accompanying their loved ones to a country in which according to local law, they can receive assistance to die. Debbie Purdy’s ultimately successful legal action, swiftly followed by the publication of the DPP’s’ interim and final policies for cases of assisted suicide and the related public consultation,1 have ensured that the matter of relatives facilitating assisted Law School, Lancaster University. I am grateful to John Coggon for his valuable comments on an earlier draft of this paper. Thanks are also due to Marleen Eijkholt, who kindly provided a translation of the Dutch case discussed in section III. A), and to Hazel Biggs and the two reviewers for the Medical Law Review. Responsibility for any errors remains with the author.
