Abstract
The objective of this article was to reconstruct the main events that constitute Antarctic tourist interaction ritual chain. The data come from the ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Ushuaia, Argentina, in 2013 in the framework of the research project “Anthropology of Antarctic Tourism”. Visual sociological perspective employed in this article uses symbolic interactionist theory and photo-elicitation interviews to advance our understanding of processes, practices and ritual interactions of tourists that sustain the Antarctic value system.
