Synopsis:

Now replacing oil as the most important industry in the world, tourism can be corrupt and exploitative as well as destructive on the environment. The Management and Politics of Tourism explains how governments manage this highly diverse and volatile industry. James Elliot covers the management of tourism at all levels of government, including both developed and developing countries. A historic and economic overview is provided as well as a discussion of the reasons why and how governments are involved in tourism management. Also included are a number of case studies covering policy making, planning a tourism managment organization, local governments, airlines and airports, and environmental control and sustainable development. Detailed information boxes and excerpts of official documents illustrate government management and the tourism system and provide criteria for evaluation.
