Tourism in Pacific Islands: Current Issues and Future Challenges: Contemporary Geographies of Leisure, Tourism and Mobility
Editat de Stephen Pratt, David Harrisonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mai 2017
In this collection, three main themes arise: Images of the South Pacific; Socio-economic Impacts of Tourism; and Pacific Island Countries and the Outside World. The first focus is on the question of image, namely, stereotypes of a destination held by tourists and potential tourists, the extent to which residents, for their part, really welcome visitors, and the role tourism might play in changing pre-established images. The second theme is tourism's impacts, notably the economic and socio-cultural effects of international tourism's intrusion in the region which, though often hotly debated, have attracted relatively little empirical research. The third focus is on the challenges of how PICs articulate with their external geo-political and physical environment. These involve existing relations with formal colonial centres, geographical isolation, the need for greater air access to the outside world and for more tourists, and the continuing threat to several PICs of global warming, which increased air travel will inevitably exacerbate.
This text will be of interest to tourism students, researchers and academics in the fields of tourism, development studies and cultural studies.
