Dark Tourism Emerging in the Media and in Tourism Literature
Dark tourism is a relatively new area of interest in the field of tourism.
Indeed the literature in this emerging area of tourism and tourist
interest is not extensive as journals, organizations and discussion groups
in this field have been all coming into existence in the recent past.
For example, the publically archived Dark Tourism discussion group is not
very old at all.

Media coverage of this concept of dark tourism is anything but huge at
this point in time, however. While Google has 20,100 hits on this phrase
at this moment (Google web search results go up and down at rates that
would make stock market analysts dizzy), Google News shows only two hits
on this subject.

A collection of databases provided by EBSCO's database searching service
covering a broad range of subject disciplines provides 65 hits for this
subject discipline including these citations.

Most of these citations come, however, from the tourism and hospitality
journals and are probably found in the CAB and in the Hospitality and
Tourism databases, the later of which is an exclusive database to EBSCO.
For a substantial number of institutions, the search protocols for
searching in EBSCO have drastically improved this year as is detailed in
this Net-Gold post.

As far as I know, the find line searching interface described in the post
cited above is the universal interface for using EBSCO now as of about the
time this message was posted on Saturday March 11, 2006.
Speaking of the media, this newer database in EBSCO, having been there for
about a couple of years or so, may be of interest to those studying the
roles of media in tourism.
