9781559636056: MANAGING TOURISM GROWTH

Synopsis

Tourism is one of the world's largest and fastest growing industries. If poorly managed it can have serious negative impacts on tourist communities. This work analyzes and evaluates methods by which communities can carefully control tourism in order to maximize its postive aspects while minimizing its detrimental effects. The authors offer examples of the ways in which uncontrolled tourism can adversely affect a community, and explain how to create an effective strategy that can protect tourism resources for current and future generations. The book offers numerous, varied case studies, including Sante Fe, New Mexico; Nusa Dua, Bali; Canterbury, Kent; Times Square, New York; and the Great Barrier Reef, Australia.

Review

"This is a thoroughly research and well-written book filled with real world examples from places trying to sustain tourism without being overrun. It is must-reading for scholars and others having to deal on a daily basis with the pressures of tourism on real places."--Bruce A. Rogers, Planning Director, City of Sanibel, Florida

"Stakeholders in tourism should be more aware of the benefits and costs of tourism, of its possible positive and negative impacts--economic, environmental, and social. We thus welcome the publication of Managing Tourism Growth: Issues and Applications, which analyzes the main challenges to be faced and presents case studies of strategies and practices worldwide."--Hélène Genot, coordinator, Tourism Programme, Technology, Economics, and Industry Division, UN

case studies of particular relevance to U.K. readers
We have included in our book a number of detailed case studies that will be of particular interest to readers in the U.K., including: Canterbury,Kent; South Pembrokeshire, Wales, and the "Tarka Project" in Devon. Additional case studies of locations with historical roots to the U.K. include Bermuda; the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, Australia; Whistler, B.C. Canada; and three sites in New Zealand (the Southern Lakes Region, Stewart Island, and Milford Sound). There are many additional case studies from other locations that have similar opportunities and challenges to U.K. destinations.
