Description
xThis ethnographic study provides a holistic, multi-stakeholder view of the first twenty years of tourism development in a remote region of Eastern Indonesia. It examines how tourism is intertwined with life in a non-western, marginal community and analyses tourism and sociocultural change, conflict, globalisation, poverty and powerlessness.
