Asia is regarded as the fastest growing area for international and
domestic tourism in the world today and over the next 20 years.
Given the economic, social and environmental importance of tourism
in the region, there is a need for a comprehensive and readable
overview of the critical debates and controversies in tourism in
the region and the major factors that are affecting tourism
development both now and in the foreseeable future. This Handbook
provides a contemporary survey of the region and its continued
growth and development as a key destination and generator of
tourism, which is marked by a high proportion of intra-regional
travel. The book is divided into five sections. This first section
provides an introduction to the region and context to the
nationally focused chapters. The next three sections are then
broadly based on the three UNWTO Asian regions: South-East Asia,
South and Central Asia, and East and North-East Asia, providing
readers with a valuable snapshot of tourism at various scales, and
from various approaches and positions. The concluding section
considers future prospects for tourism in Asia. The handbook is
interdisciplinary in coverage and is also international in scope
through its authorship and content. It presents a range of
perspectives and understanding of the processes and forces that are
shaping tourism in this fascinating and dynamic region that is one
of the focal points of global tourism. This is essential reading
for students, researchers and academics interested in tourism in
the growth region of Asia now and in the future.
