Cultural tourism is frequently marketed as an economic panacea for
communities whose traditional ways of life have been compromised by
the dominant societies by which they have been colonized.
Indigenous communities in particular are responding to these
opportunities in innovative ways that set them apart from their
non-Indigenous predecessors and competitors. Indigenous Tourism
Movements explores Indigenous identity using "movement" as a
metaphor, drawing on case studies from throughout the world
including Botswana, Canada, Chile, Panama, Tanzania, and the United
States. Editors Alexis C.Bunten and Nelson Graburn, along with a
diverse group of contributors, frame tourism as a critical lens to
explore the shifting identity politics of Indigeneity in relation
to heritage, global policy, and development. They juxtapose diverse
expressions of identity - from the commodification of Indigenous
culture to the performance of heritage for tourists - to illuminate
the complex local, national, and transnational connections these
expressions produce. Indigenous Tourism Movements is a
sophisticated, sensitive, and refreshingly frank examination of
Indigeneity in the contemporary world.
