Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourisme et Pauvreté? Les deux termes n'ont pas coutume de cohabiter de manière pacifique ... et quand on les associe, c'est généralement pour dresser l'un contre l'autre ... Cet ouvrage a tenté de sonder aussi bien leurs incompatibilités, que la possibilité qu'ils se conjuguent harmonieusement en vue d'offrir un mieux vivre à des contrées minées par le sous-développement, le chômage, l'analphabétisme ou la dégradation de l'environnement ... Mais envisager le tourisme comme un levier de lutte contre la pauvreté nécessite des préalables nécessaires ... Mais envisager le tourisme comme un levier de lutte contre la pauvreté nécessite des préalables nécessaires ... Car s'il constitue une opportunité à saisir, il appartient d'en déterminer les modalités, les actions, les moyens, les acteurs, et surtout la capacité qu'il peut avoir à contribuer réellement à une réduction de la pauvreté. S'il ne s'agit que d'une activité économique "égoïste", capitaliste, indifférente à la misère tant qu'elle ne la menace pas, elle risque d'aggraver la pauvreté au lieu de l'atténuer ... et dans ce cas, quels sont les risques encourus?! Le tourisme n'est peut être ni une panacée ni un remède miracle dans des pays où la pauvreté est un enjeu sociétal majeur ... En l'inscrivant dans son contexte géopolitique et économique, en confrontant les résultats effectifs aux attentes et aux espoirs qu'il suscite, un tel ouvrage aspire à une vision plus juste de ce qu'il est possible d'en attendre, dans des contextes aussi divers que le Maroc, Madagascar, le Vietnam ou le Cambodge ... -- Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaque année, des millions de vacanciers des sociétés industrielles partent à la découverte du tiers monde. Phénomène récent, phénomène massif sur lequel il convient de s'interroger. Quels sont les motifs réels de ces départs ? Le souci du dépaysement, le goût de l'exotisme, le désir de rencontrer " l'autre " - toutes ces motivations ne sont-elles pas l'expression d'un malaise plus profond qui prend ses racines au milieu de notre propre société ? Et cet " autre ", n'est-il pas souvent hôte malgré lui ? Les populations du tiers monde ne sont-elles pas contraintes d'accepter tous les moyens de développement que les sociétés riches leur font miroiter ? Autant de questions auxquelles ce livre pionnier s'efforce de répondre, statistiques à l'appui, à travers une étude historique et socio-économique qui permet de mieux situer la place du tourisme dans les relations internationales.

Download or read book Tourism and Regional Development written by Maria Giaoutzi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourist visits used to be a less common activity in the past. However, more people than ever now make leisure trips, making this an era of mass tourism. This drastic change in spatial behaviour is not only caused by economic prosperity, but the scale of this phenomenon means that it is able to generate economic growth, making tourism a key factor in regional development policy. One of the main challenges of current regional policy is to market the attractiveness of an area, thereby increasing tourist visits and subsequent revenue. In particular, regions are attempting this through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), which offer information on interesting places, and efficient methods for organizing and booking trips. This book examines the interconnections between tourism, ICT and regional development. Bringing together a range of European case studies illustrating various ICT and policy innovations, it not only critiques current activity by regions in terms of tourism development, but also considers how this sector is likely to continue to grow.
Download or read book Tourism and Development in the Developing World written by David J. Telfer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism is widely considered to be an important factor in socio-economic development, particularly in less developed countries. However, despite almost universal recognition of tourism’s development potential, the extent to which economic and social progress is linked to the growth of a country’s tourism sector remains the subject of intense debate. Tourism and Development in the Developing World offers a thorough overview of the tourism-development relationship. Focusing specifically on the less developed world and drawing on contemporary case studies, this updated second edition questions widely-held assumptions on the role of tourism in development and seeks to highlight the challenges faced by destinations seeking to achieve development through tourism. The introductory chapter establishes the foundation for the book, exploring the meaning and objectives of development, reviewing theoretical perspectives on the developmental process, and assessing the reasons why less developed countries are attracted to tourism as a development option. The concept of sustainable development, as the most widely adopted contemporary model of development, is then introduced and its links with tourism critically assessed. Subsequent chapters explore the key issues associated with tourism and development, including the rise of globalization; the tourism planning and development process; the relationship between tourism and communities within which it is developed; the management implications of trends in the demand for and uptake of tourism; and an analysis of the consequences of tourism development for destination environments, economies and societies. A new chapter considers the challenges of climate change, sustainability of resource supply (oil, water and food), global economic instability, political instability and changing demographics. Finally, the issues raised throughout the book are drawn together in a concluding chapter that assesses the tourism and development ‘dilemma’. Combining an overview of essential concepts, theories and knowledge with an analysis of contemporary issues and debates in tourism and development, this new edition will be an invaluable resource for those investigating tourism issues in developing countries. The book will be of interest to students of tourism, development, geography and area studies, international relations and politics, and sociology.
Download or read book Tourism and the Millennium Development Goals written by Jarkko Saarinen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000 United Nations adopted the Millennium Development Goals (UN MDGs), committing the member nations to a new global partnership to reduce extreme poverty and setting out a series of specific targets with a deadline of 2015. Related to the UN MDGs, tourism is increasingly seen as a promising tool for poverty reduction, ensuring environmental sustainability and developing a global partnership for development, for example. Thus, the industry has become an important policy tool for community and regional development in many developing countries and the expectations for tourism and its social and economic outcomes have evolved to a high level. However, there are still many challenges to overcome in the relationship between tourism industry, development and poverty reduction. This book aims to discuss the promises, challenges and outcomes of tourism in development with a specific aim of drawing together research related to tourism and UN MDGs. The papers discuss what lessons can be learnt and conclusions drawn from the utilisation of tourism for development and poverty reduction. What emerges from this collection is a set of interesting results and notions which both support and challenge the connections between tourism and development and the new role of tourism in global development. This book is an extended version of a special issue published in Current Issues in Tourism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans les pays du Sud, les relations entre tourisme et développement durable font l'objet de vifs débats. L'argument principal en faveur du tourisme est fondé sur l'importance économique de ce secteur et sur son taux de croissance. Mais dans le même temps, son développement s'accompagne d'effets environnementaux et sociaux négatifs. Sous quelle(s) forme(s) peut s'opérer un tourisme répondant aux exigences du développement durable ? Comment les représentations et les pratiques des diverses formes de tourisme relevant d'un « tourisme durable » se sont-elles imposées et se traduisent-elles dans les Suds ? Quelles en sont les opportunités et les limites ? De manière inédite en France, cet ouvrage interroge les diverses déclinaisons du tourisme durable dans les pays du Sud et nous convie à une réflexion critique sur leurs mises en pratique et leurs effets, en particulier en Afrique et en Amérique latine.
