“…"Intra-tourist gaze" (Wang and Xu, 2016;Holloway, 2018) explains how senior tourists attempt to develop a leading and authoritative role while touring. "Reverse gaze" (Gillespie, 2006;Hö ckert et al, 2018) speaks of the association between the tourist photographers and the locals, the subjects of the photographs, who might exhibit different emotions during the photography. The remaining parts of this review attempt to capture these evolving, increasingly nuanced conceptions of the tourist gaze.…”

Purpose The tourist gaze remains a key concept in tourism research. The purpose of this paper is to comprehend the theoretical and empirical development of the tourist gaze notion and its contributions to tourism knowledge, identifying potential research directions by reviewing and analyzing articles that have defined, refined and applied the concept of the tourist gaze. Design/methodology/approach The study identified 109 relevant research papers primarily through the Web of Science and Scopus databases. Google Scholar, ResearchGate.net and Academia.edu were used to capturing additional work not indexed in the key databases. Qualitative content analysis was used to map the evolution of the concept, distinguish between different perspectives and identify gaps in the tourist gaze literature. Findings This “state of the art” paper on tourist gaze outlines Foucault’s original work on gaze and power, which underpins subsequent theorization within tourism. The study identifies how the tourist gaze operates in different contexts and circumstances allowing the development of gaze theory. Importantly, the evolution of the gaze theory is presented after analyzing the knowledge gaps, the contexts in which it was used, the methodologies with which it was applied. Based on the findings, the study proposes future works of gaze with the use of technology, science, nature and social media. Originality/value This paper is among one of the first states of the art papers in tourism literature that comprehensively analyzes the works on the tourist gaze, tracing its evolution and identifying future research directions to address gaps in existing knowledge.

“…They produce a second gaze upon tourists and negotiate their responses to tourists' behaviors in turn (Chhabra, 2010). Thus, tourists perceive, interpret and reflect on the locals' gaze (Gillespie, 2006;Hö ckert et al, 2018). This photographic encounter may discomfort both tourists and hosts, resulting in an inauthentic experience (Gillespie, 2006).…”

“…On the other hand, the gaze can be cocreated between tourists and hosts in various encounters. The subject-object relationship may be changed according to cocreation of the gaze (Gillespie, 2006;Hö ckert et al, 2018). The shifting in role and discursive power of tourist-host interaction can mediate the host-guest relationship and reduce cultural conflicts for all involved parties (Moufakkir, 2011).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to offer an up-to-date review of the gaze, proposing new research agendas with regard to the various gazes actively operating at destinations. Design/methodology/approach The study thoroughly and systematically reviewed the existing literature by gathering papers related to gaze research in tourism contexts. Analysis of existing knowledge is centered around the gaze and a triadic framework among three key stakeholders. Findings A theoretical schema of the gaze was developed via a thorough examination of existing studies. The framework disclosed the subject of the gaze, be it tourist-initiated and/or host-initiated, and tourist–host interactions. Along with five dominant types (tourist gaze, intratourist gaze, local gaze, mutual gaze and reverse gaze), a triadic framework among stakeholders was further revealed. Originality/value The literature review provides meaningful insights into gaze research in the tourism field, representing the first effort to delineate relationships among relevant stakeholders. Further, this study proposes future research priorities related to the tourist–host relationship for destination experience development.

“…In a research on tourist photography ethics titled "Gazes and faces in tourist photography", 13 the authors reached a conclusion that despite the permissions to take pictures, most locals did not allow total camera freedom. 14 Tourism and photography go hand in hand, given that images represent memories of the visited areas.…”

“…The article also notes that the presence of instantaneous photographs invaded privacy that was previously enjoyed by people. 13 The two also argued that invasion of privacy would cause psychological distress and pain that is worse than bodily injury. The article concluded by recommending that the law should be changed to include clear boundaries between private and public life, to protect people.…”

People like to capture the moment and recall it upon request. Nearly everyone is able to take photos using standard technology. This paper will highlight one of the most important cases where photos are taken in good or bad intentions without the consent of the individual being captured. Any individual has the right to privacy in his personal life; this means he has the right to control who will have the right to capture his photo and who has the right to use it in the future. This is so, since there are some rights, which are recognized by different national laws and international conventions connected to human beings. In Jordan, any individual has some basic rights, including but not limited to the right of privacy and the right to protect others from brining any action against the rights, which are connected to their legal personality as a human being. This paper will highlight the current legal approach within Jordan when it comes to taking photos of other. Trying to figure out whether the laws, as is, are able to protect individuals or need to be amended.
