Travel and Tourism in the Caribbean: Challenges and Opportunities for Small Island Developing States de Andrew Spencer

Travel and Tourism in the Caribbean: Challenges and Opportunities for Small Island Developing States

Autor Andrew Spencer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 oct 2018
This book explores the distinct nuisances and obstacles that are brought on by the tourism and travel industry within Caribbean small island developing countries (SIDS). The author explores best practices and measures that can be used to overcome or alleviate the hardship faced by the industry by giving voice to the nations that are often overshadowed or restrained by their developed counterparts. This book reflects on and assesses the transformative power that tourism has in Caribbean small island developing states, while unearthing the threats that affect the longevity and economic viability of the industry in general. It is an important and overdue text focusing on this unique group of islands and will inform students and researchers on the struggles and opportunities they face.
