Bourbon Street, B-Drinking, and the Sexual Economy of Tourism - The Anthropology of Tourism: Heritage, Mobility, and Society
Angela R. Demovic
Combining historic and ethnographic research, Angela R. Demovic reveals the intersection of alcohol sales and stripteasing in the French Quarter. She demonstrates how B-drinkers—workers hired by bar owners to flirt with patrons who buy them drinks—maintain agency and create community in a tourism economy.
