摘要：

家是地理学核心概念之一，旅游情境中家的建构问题研究还有待推进。距离作为一种实践，是建构人与外界环境关系的重要方式。本文从关系视角出发，将家视为关系空间，研究老年旅游移民的距离实践与家的建构的关系。以老年旅游移民为研究对象，通过田野调查、观察法、访谈法等研究方法，研究发现：①家是由距离实践呈现出来的个体与物理环境、社会环境和自我心理的一种舒适关系。家是距离实践的结果，通过距离实践老年旅游移民在建立了家内的无形的规则和秩序，也建立起了家与非家的边界；②老年旅游移民在泰国建立了“自我的家”，其中个人层面的家对西方老年旅游移民最为重要。距离实践能表现不同层面的家之间的重要性分异。研究距离实践与老年旅游移民的家的建构，指出老年旅游移民家的建构是通过距离实践的过程完成的，从关系视角深化了对家的建构的理解，同时丰富了对老年人“理想的家”的认识——自我空间和对生活掌控感，它们对老年人具有重要的意义。

Abstract:

Although meaning of home is influenced by distancing, it is usually overlooked that how distancing affects the process of building a home. As a kind of practice, Distancing is an important way to build relationships between individual and the external environment. Through relational perspectives, home is regarded as a relational space. Taking senior tourism migrants in Pai, Thailand as a case study, this paper examines the meaning of home, the process of building homes and in which the role of distance plays in the background of increasing tourism-led mobility. Quality research methods—semi-interview, participated and non-participated observation—were used during the field work, in which the researchers have stay in the case from Jan.9,2020 to Jan.20,2020. 17 old tourism migrants from 8 different countries have accepted the interviews. Each conversation lasted for 20~50 minutes. It found that: (1) Home is a comfortable relationship with physical environment, social environment and inner world. Home is the result of distance practice. (2) Western senior tourism migrants experience "home of myself" and sustain a self-centered lifestyle. And their homes are consisted of personal social and physical aspects. Different aspects of home are not as equal as important but diverse, western old tourism migrants consider personal aspect of home is more crucial than physical and social aspect of home. The research conclusions deepen the research framework of the meaning of the home, point out the importance of distance practice for the construction of home, and at the same time enrich the understanding of the "ideal home" of the elderly, and recognize the importance of self-space and control of life to the elderly.
