Recenzii
'This is the sort of book that makes you immediately think of all the courses you could use it in - International Political Economy, Global Studies, Labor Studies, Gender and Migration. Christine Chin's innovative exploration of the big cruise ship companies and their "flags of convenience" and gendered, racialized labor practices insures we'll never look at one of those cruising behemouths in the same way again. ' Cynthia Enloe, Clark University, USA 'Cruising in the Global Economy is an interesting and thought provoking addition to the limited literature available that addresses the Cruise Industry. Christine Chin's study comes from her interest in political economy of transnational migration and she uses that knowledge and understanding to good effect to examine the complex realities that underpin the cruise phenomena.' Journal of Tourism Consumption and Practice '...a wide-ranging, illuminating account of the multibillion dollar global cruise tourism industry...Cruising in the Global Economy is an important and valuable contribution...It is the most extended, astute and stimulating analysis of the cruise ship industry to date, and a measured and open-ended analysis of the pervasive global challenges of the free market.' The Asia Pacific Journal of Anthropology '...a valuable addition to any academic tourism library.' The Tourism Society
Descriere
Interdisciplinary in nature, this analysis elicits an examination of states' relationship to the maritime regulatory structure governing ship ownership, management and operations, cruise lines' business strategies, development of port communities to capture cruise-related revenue, changing leisure consumption patterns and meanings, and the employment of foreign migrant workers as seafarers.
