SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This book describes both the positive and negative effects of tourism on the destination community. It examines together many of the issues and critical concepts that pertain to the relationship between destination communities and tourism. These issues include economics, society and culture, heritage identity, politics and power, indigenous rights, ethical stakeholder interactions, development theory, planning, environment/ecology, management and marketing. Each of these issues forms the nucleus of an individual chapter. The 14 chapters are divided into three sections under the headings of: community tourism perspectives; community tourism dynamics; and challenges and opportunities for destination communities. Each chapter contains brief case studies and empirical examples. The book has a subject index.
