Abstract This study takes a Foucauldian approach to neoliberal governmentality to analyze the multi-layered power relations at the tourism workplaces and the practices of subjection of employees to the industry's working conditions. It focuses on the neglected question of how tourism employees can continue working despite problems with their working conditions. Field research was conducted through semi-structured interviews with tourism workers in Alanya, one of Turkey's most important tourism cities, to reveal traces of employees' consent-adaptation-resistance practices in their everyday lives. The findings show that individuals are subjects in a multilayered power relationship. This subjection frames adaptation and resistance practices and reproduces unsustainable conditions within tourism workplaces. The findings offer critical insights into working conditions in the neoliberalized tourism workplaces dominated by Kafkaesque bureaucracy. The study encourages a new perspective highlighting the necessity of further criticism to promote decent work.

追踪“不可持续”劳动力的同意、适应和抵制实践:旅游业工作场所的治理

摘要 本研究采用福柯式的新自由主义治理方法来分析旅游工作场所的多层次权力关系以及员工服从行业工作条件的做法。它侧重于被忽视的问题,即尽管工作条件存在问题,旅游雇员如何继续工作。通过对土耳其最重要的旅游城市之一阿拉尼亚的旅游工作者的半结构化访谈进行实地研究,以揭示员工在日常生活中的同意-适应-抵抗行为的痕迹。研究结果表明,个人是多层权力关系中的主体。这种服从构成了适应和抵抗实践,并在旅游工作场所再现了不可持续的条件。研究结果为卡夫卡式官僚主义主导的新自由主义旅游工作场所的工作条件提供了重要见解。该研究鼓励一种新的观点,强调进一步批评以促进体面劳动的必要性。
