description |
As its title suggests, this book seeks to make a distinctive contribution to the tourism and
inequality debate, not only through its investigation of how and why tourism contributes
to and refl ects social inequality, but crucially through its exploration of the ways in which
tourism can be a means to reduce social inequality or alleviate its impact. As such, it is
fi rmly located within ‘hopeful tourism scholar ship’, an emerging paradigm within the
fi eld, which advocates linking critical thinking, pedagogy and action to achieve more just
societies in and through tourism (Ateljevic et al., 2007a; Ren et al., in press). Tourism is
frequently described as one of the world’s fastest growing industries and a new source of
wealth creation in deprived regions and less developed nations. Recently, however,
emphasis on its economic benefi ts has been countered by increasing concerns over the
uneven nature of such economic develop ment, serious questions about the environ mental
sustainability of the tourism industry and disquiet at the negative social and cultural
impacts of tourism. These concerns have been expressed by aca demics, policy makers and
practitioners, and have been raised in relation to different scales: individual well-being,
family struc ture, community development and national identity (Botterill and Klemm,
2006, 2007). In both tourism-generating regions and in tourism-receiving com munities,
tourism is part of wider social, economic, political, ecological and cultural processes, and
the goal of this volume is to unpick these complex processes in order to expose the
relationships between tourism and inequality; more than this, however, its contributors
also review international examples of socially responsible tourism to provide a stock of
good practice cases for tourism students, educators, practitioners and activists. |
