Living with Tourism - Negotiating Identities in a Turkish Village (Hardcover)

Living with Tourism redefines the 'community' that is of interest when considering the effects that tourism has on culture, by providing an ethnographic account of both the toured and touring community in Göreme, central Turkey.
It presents an in-depth analysis of the interactions between tourists, the local community and place. It demonstrates the implications that community ownership and participation in tourism have for the politics of representation and identity, and also for the nature of the tourist experience. It is shown how, together with host communities, tourists themselves are continuously negotiating their own identities and experiences in interaction with the people and places they meet.
This book develops a dynamic notion of culture and tourism sustainability, and therefore provides new insights not only for scholars of tourism, but also for those in the areas of anthropology, geography and social studies who wish to gain a deeper understanding of this global phenomenon in the contemporary world.
