Product Description
Political ecology explicitly addresses the relations between the social and the natural arguing that social and environmental conditions are deeply and inextricably linked. Its emphasis on the material state of nature as the outcome of political processes as well as the construction and understanding of nature itself as political is greatly relevant to tourism. Very few tourism scholars have used political ecology as a lens to examine tourism-centric natural resource management issues. This book brings together experts in the field with a foreword from Piers Blaikie to provide a global exploration of the application of political ecology to tourism. It addresses the underlying issues of power ownership and policies that determine the ways in which tourism development decisions are made and implemented. Furthermore contributions document the complex array of relationships between tourism stakeholders including indigenous communities and multiple scales of potential conflicts and compromises. This groundbreaking book covers 15 contributions organized around four cross-cutting themes of communities andălivelihoods; class representation and power; dispossession and displacement; and environmental justice and community empowerment. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in tourism geography anthropology sociology environmental studies and natural resources management. | Political Ecology and Tourism
