Tourism in Asia is growing faster than anywhere else in the world,
driven by the increasing wealth of countries like Taiwan, South
Korea and Malaysia, and by the huge populations of China, India and
Indonesia -the first second and fourth biggest countries in the
works. Despite the significance of the tourism industry in this
area it is still under researched.
Asian Tourism is a unique book and the first to addresses this
imbalance by providing a high quality edited collection of chapters
which explore the domestic and intraregional tourism in Asia.
Divided into three sections it explores:
* Policy aspects of tourism development and the role of the public
sector exploring issues such as: Cross-national tourism
collaboration in Asia, The growth of aviation in Asia and Economic
Corridors and Ecotourism.
* Changing markets exploring issues such as: The role of Japanese
popular culture in Asian tourism, Management Challenges for Bali's
Tourism Industry and religious tourism in North India.
* Destination and industry responses exploring issues such as:
Tourism-Generated Employment in Cambodia, sex workers and tourism
in India and responsible destination development in the
Philippines.
With contributions from well respected and eminent names in the
field, Asian Tourism provides a ground breaking insight into
topical, industry focused issues while benefiting from academic
depth and rigour and an awareness of tourism history in this
region.
