Tourism has become an important tool for development in rural,
remote and peripheral regions in the last 50 years. However, in
many places, tourism has failed to produce the promised benefits
and often caused negative impacts due to a lack of local
entrepreneurial capacity to benefit from tourism business
opportunities, inadequate understanding of tourism markets and
limited community awareness of tourism and its impacts. Drawing
attention to the potential outcomes to communities when using
tourism as a development strategy, this book provides a focused
analysis of this emerging issue and seeks to provide positive
guidance on improving the process of tourism planning and
development. Chapters compile evidence and examples of how
community capacity for tourism can be built and enhanced using case
studies from Asia, Africa, South America, the South Pacific and
rural Australia and the United States. Providing models and
frameworks that can be applied to any developing area, this book
will be useful to both academic researchers and government policy
makers interested in tourism and rural development.
