Tourism Development and the Environment: Beyond Sustainability? (Tourism, Environment and Development)
Richard Sharpley
Tourism Development and the Environment:Beyond Sustainability? is the first in the new Earthscan series Tourism, Environment and Development .This volume challenges the sustainable tourism development paradigm that has come to dominate both theoretical and practical approaches to tourism development over the last two decades. In so doing, it extends the sustainable tourism debate beyond the arguably managerialist, "blueprint" and destination-focused approach that continues to characterize even the most recent sustainability agenda within tourism development.The author discusses the evolution of the concept of sustainable tourism development, its manifestations and limitations. He then proposes alternative approaches to tourism development which, nevertheless, retain environmental sustainability as a prerequisite of tourism development. But the book also acts as an introduction to the series as a whole. A number of issues raised in Tourism Development and the Environment demand a more detailed analysis and debate. The book also covers different tourism developmental contexts, such as island micro-states, less-developed/transitional economies and urban tourism.
