Over the last fifty years, tourism has become firmly established as
a development option around the world. Commensurate with this, the
study of tourism's developmental role has also expanded
significantly. There now exists a broad understanding of the
policies and processes, opportunities and challenges that apply to
tourism's potential contributions to development. As the tourism
environment now faces numerous challenges and transformations, it
is timely to reflect on contemporary understandings of the
relationship between tourism and development and to consider future
directions. As a contribution to a knowledge and understanding of
tourism development, this book: Comprises reflective essays written
by internationally-ranked scholars and tourism consultants with
extensive experience, particularly in developing countries.
Considers extant themes, issues and challenges related to tourism
and development. Offers a critical and contemporary perspective on
the significance of tourism and its role in development. This
thought-provoking volume challenges the orthodoxy of tourism and
development, highlights past and current events and considers
longer term repercussions and developments. It will be a relevant
and enduring resource for academics and undergraduate and
postgraduate students in tourism.
