Tourism examines one of the fastest growing industries in the world; an industry characterised by a high profile and high advertising expenditure. Countries bid for the tourist dollar, which they see as an opportunity for employment, cash injection and investment. But what of the negative impacts? This book investigates the problems and conflicts associated with tourism. Tourism uses case studies from around the world to illustrate not only the conflict, but also the success and failure of alternative solutions. This book encourages students to actively participate in tourist issues.
