Duncan’s expertise lies in Central and Eastern Europe – particularly Romania. He is especially interested
in how the country has negotiated ‘Dracula Tourism’, which is not welcome in the country but can
generate a lot of income.
He also explores how tourism unfolds in communist states and how the leftover heritage of communism
can become a tourist attraction.
Duncan is a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and has an interest in place names, particularly
street names. He is developing research into the use and management of cemeteries for leisure purposes.
