Tourism is an intensely geographic phenomenon. It stimulates large-scale movement of people on an increasingly globalised scale and forges distinctive relationships between people – as tourists – and the spaces and places that they visit. It has significant implications for processes of physical development and resource exploitation, whilst the presence of visitors will frequently exert a range of economic, social cultural and environmental impacts that have important implications for local geographies.
The book aims to develop a critical understanding of how many different geographies of tourism are created and maintained.
