The Tourist Places of the World Hardback
by Philippe (University of Angers, France) Violier, Benjamin (University of Angers, France) Taunay
Hardback
Description
Formerly a largely Western practice, leisure travel is today the most dynamic industry in the world in terms of growth.
Developments in transport and communication systems mean tourism is now an integral part of our understanding of the world, and involved in the exponential increase of links between societies and different cultures. The Tourist Places of the World has comprehensive data on the number of international visitors annually.
It also includes an original map ? not dictated by country, but by major tourist areas and places.
The hierarchy of destinations drawn is highlighted by the different levels of popularity and passenger flows; from the universal places where all societies meet to the still unfrequented places.
Beyond the recognition of global tourism, the challenge is to understand how and why societies can achieve a better life through sustainable development, which encompasses social, economic and environmental dimensions.
