Tourism Development, Governance and Sustainability in The Bahamas (Paperback): Sophia Rolle, Jessica Minnis, Ian Bethell-Bennett Tourism Development, Governance and Sustainability in The Bahamas (Paperback)
Sophia Rolle, Jessica Minnis, Ian Bethell-Bennett
R1,218 Discovery Miles 12 180 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book focuses on the complex issues of tourism development, governance and sustainability in the long-standing popular island destination, The Bahamas, where tourism remains one of the primary fiscal industries. The book achieves this by looking at the impacts of mass tourism development from social, economic and environmental perspectives; panarchy and resilience; assessing sustainability; moving towards a blue economy; impacts of climate change and innovative alternative tourism offerings to ensure sustainable tourism - a welcomed but challenging essential contemporary focus of the tourism industry. It further looks at how development, governance and sustainability come together in the aftermath of a recent natural disaster, hurricane Dorian, which proved to be a strong catalyst for action, innovation and change in The Bahamas. Given the complexity of these key concepts and The Bahamas as an established popular tourism destination archipelago which relies so heavily on the industry, this book offers significant insight for other tourism regions and will therefore be essential reading for upper-level students and academics in the field of Tourism research.

Pandemics, Disasters, Sustainability, Tourism - An Examination of Impact on and Resilience in Caribbean Small Island Developing... Pandemics, Disasters, Sustainability, Tourism - An Examination of Impact on and Resilience in Caribbean Small Island Developing States (Hardcover)
Ian Bethell-Bennett, Sophia Rolle, Jessica Minnis, Fevzi Okumus
R2,468 Discovery Miles 24 680 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Caribbean small island developing states (SIDS) have witnessed great upheaval and change over the last decade and a half - from the global economic recession of 2008, the 2010 and 2021 earthquakes in Haiti, to hurricanes that devastated islands like Jamaica, Barbuda, Dominica and The Bahamas, volcanic eruptions, and health crises. These events are reminders of how vulnerable Caribbean SIDS are to external and internal shocks; today Caribbean SIDS are grappling with how to restart their economies and embrace a "new normal" in the wake of disasters and the sharp losses in tourism. Pandemics, Disasters, Sustainability, Tourism examines the resilience of Caribbean SIDS and their tourism industries from the perspectives of culture, economy, environment, politics, psychology, social justice, and socio-historical context. Pandemics, Disasters, Sustainability, Tourism's broad-based topics engage scholars, students, and the public in discourse regarding Caribbean SIDS' resilient Island economies that, facing calamity, implement new initiatives to forge environmentally sound policies for sustainable tourism and hospitality development.
