Tourism and Politics: Policy, Power and Place. Cet article n’est pas disponible.Tourism and Politics: Policy, Power and Place

Despite the size of the tourism industry in both global terms and as the primary export earner for many national and regional economies, the political significance of tourism has received little substantive attention. Furthermore, what little research has been conducted to date has generally been descriptive in nature but has failed to relate political theory to the substance of tourism. This survey of the field of political tourism discusses the implications of different political theories. It also expands the relationships between the political aspects of tourism at different levels of analysis (international, national, local and individual).

This book explores the political significance of tourism. It discusses the implications of different political theories on how we perceive the politics of tourism and examines the relationships between the political aspects of tourism at different levels of analysis.
