Tourism has the
potential to contribute to world
peace, and through appropriate
management, to address current
realities such as globalization,
migration, conflicts, prejudices
and poverty. By providing a
range of international
perspectives and case studies,
this book discusses the
interrelation between peace,
conflict resolution and tourism,
the role of industry and the
role of the individual, and
tourism as a catalyst for change
and development. Exploring the
ideas that there is more to
peace than the absence of war
and that there is more to
tourism than economic interests,
this book is the first of its
kind and an essential resource
for researchers, students and
policymakers in tourism and
related subjects. |
