Zusammenfassung: | Tourism can reduce poverty in developing countries. But tourism growth is not universally inclusive of the poor. Moreover our understanding of how tourism affects the poor is largely based on partial and superficial analysis. Researchers from different disciplines and practitioners with different objectives generally work in splendid isolation from each other and from the mainstream of development economics. Detailed economic analysis remains buried and is rarely challenged for policy implications, let alone poverty implications. This book provides an overview of a broad array of analyses of how tourism affects poor people. First, it pulls these together to identify three main pathways by which impacts on poverty can be delivered. Second, it reviews the empirical evidence on the scale and significance of impacts within each pathway, exploring where comparisons can be made and where they cannot. Finally, it considers the different methods used to gather and collect data, and implications for how we should work in the future. Tourism and Poverty Reduction draws on international evidence throughout, but provides particular insights into Africa and other less developed countries. It makes a major contribution to a more coherent, cross-disciplinary and sensitive approach to the tourism-poverty debate |

But tourism growth is not universally inclusive of the poor. Moreover our understanding of how tourism affects the poor is largely based on partial and superficial analysis. Researchers from different disciplines and practitioners with different objectives generally work in splendid isolation from each other and from the mainstream of development economics. Detailed economic analysis remains buried and is rarely challenged for policy implications, let alone poverty implications. This book provides an overview of a broad array of analyses of how tourism affects poor people. First, it pulls these together to identify three main pathways by which impacts on poverty can be delivered. Second, it reviews the empirical evidence on the scale and significance of impacts within each pathway, exploring where comparisons can be made and where they cannot. Finally, it considers the different methods used to gather and collect data, and implications for how we should work in the future. Tourism and Poverty Reduction draws on international evidence throughout, but provides particular insights into Africa and other less developed countries. It makes a major contribution to a more coherent, cross-disciplinary and sensitive approach to the tourism-poverty debate Tourismus (DE-588)4018406-7 gnd rswk-swf Armut (DE-588)4002963-3 gnd rswk-swf Nachhaltigkeit (DE-588)4326464-5 gnd rswk-swf Umweltpolitik (DE-588)4078523-3 gnd rswk-swf Bekämpfung (DE-588)4112701-8 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 gnd rswk-swf Entwicklungsländer (DE-588)4014954-7 gnd rswk-swf Poverty / Government policy Tourism / Government policy Tourism Electronic books Tourismus (DE-588)4018406-7 s Umweltpolitik (DE-588)4078523-3 s Armut (DE-588)4002963-3 s DE-604 Entwicklungsländer (DE-588)4014954-7 g Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 s Nachhaltigkeit (DE-588)4326464-5 s Bekämpfung (DE-588)4112701-8 s Mitchell, Jonathan Sonstige oth Caroline Ashley Sonstige oth Print version Ashley, Caroline Tourism and Poverty Reduction : Pathways to Prosperity London : Taylor and Francis, ©2009 9781844078882 http://public.ebookcentral.proquest.com/choice/publicfullrecord.aspx?p=483776 ProQuest Ebook Central |
