摘要:The nexus between globalization and tourism has been established whereas postmodernism imprints features on the current and future society.Seen as a result of revolutions (technological,behavioural,philosophical,economic) in society and civilizations,postmodernism can be perceived as an adjustment to new conditions involving changes in all fields,ultimately triggering changes in the vision of current civilization,individual’s mentality,perception and behaviour,management of resources,adaptation to environmental alterations and,last but not least,converting tourism from an economic activity into a social and leisure lifestyle,from a complementary necessity into a basic need associated with the right of free movement.We therefore addressed forms and types of tourism and their placement on the new trend in accordance with the change in mentality,perception,behaviour,taste,needs and expectations of providers and consumers.Since niche tourism has already been developed by expressing the multiple perspectives of postmodernism,the aim of our paper is to explore the many possibilities to develop niche tourism and prove that it is indeed the future of tourism in postmodern times as supple structure particularized on narrow tourist-oriented markets,focusing on the identity,authenticity and uniqueness of place,experiential and active-participative tourism products.Our analysis also results in stating several ground features for the future well-being of niche tourism.Identity and not the extravagance prevails and going back to simple is encouraged.However,if we dare to look beyond postmodernism the concluding remarks highlight the prevalence of inherence than conspicuousness in tourism practice given the continuous movement of population (migration,travelling for work) in contrast with the obvious monopoly of digitalization and technology that transform a large share of consumers from active travellers to passive virtual tourists.Thus we advocate for the emergence of a new tourism,nootourism that would in the end become the bridge to nontourism.
