The Iron Curtain was not an impenetrable divide, and contacts
between East and West took place regularly and on various levels
throughout the Cold War. This book explores how the European
tourist industry transcended the ideological fault lines and the
communist states attracted an ever-increasing number of Western
tourists. Based on extensive original research, it examines the
ramifications of tourism, from sun-and-sea package tours to human
rights travels, in key Eastern European locations including East
Berlin, the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and Albania. The book's
analysis of the politics, culture, and history of tourism to the
East offers important new perspectives on European tourism in the
twentieth century.
