Previous studies have shown how student circuits of consumption are mediated by the interest of commercial actors. However, little attention has been paid to the connections between international student stays and the tourism sector: how they intersect with each other? Our fieldwork in Lisbon (Portugal) showed the central role of student organizations in commercializing the leisure time of international students, approaching them to ‘circuits of travel’ and consumption populated also by tourists. Filling a gap in the literature, we conceptualize international students as consumers surrounded by entertainment industries, pointing out the centrality of touristic infrastructures and destination marketing in articulating their stays. Therefore, we argue that these organizations, in their partnership with tourism and leisure sectors, are contributing to the socio-spatial segregation between local and international students.

揭示旅游业与学生流动之间的交叉点

先前的研究表明，学生的消费循环是如何受到商业参与者的兴趣调节的。然而，很少有人关注国际学生住宿与旅游业之间的联系：它们如何相互交叉？我们在里斯本（葡萄牙）的实地考察表明，学生组织在将国际学生的休闲时间商业化、让他们接触到“旅游线路”和也由游客组成的消费方面发挥着核心作用。我们填补了文献中的空白，将国际学生概念化为被娱乐产业包围的消费者，并指出旅游基础设施和目的地营销在阐明他们的住宿方面的中心地位。因此，我们认为这些组织与旅游和休闲部门的合作正在加剧本地和国际学生之间的社会空间隔离。
