Contesting the Foreshore

Tourism, Society and Politics on the Coast

Edición de la obra Contesting the Foreshore

"This collection of essays is about tourism and social, political, and economic relations in coastal locations in various paris of the world. The starling point of each chapter is the ethnographic study of one particular place. However, the authors are also concerned with wider regional, national, and global forces which shape and influence the local economies and societies under review. Although most of the essays focus on the European coastline, the book is intended to have implications for other geographical areas."--BOOK JACKET.
