Ecotourism and conservation in the americas
Among today’s contending conservation and development strategies, ecotourism is one of the most popular. It seeks to curb the often deleterious effects of large-scale, conventional tourism on local communities and ecosystems.

Marine ecotourism: between the devil and the deep blue sea
In many ways this book is our response to the powerful ‘tug of the tide’ so graphically described in Trevor Norton’s delightful and informative evocation of the marine realm in Under Water To Get Out Of The Rain, subtitled ‘A love affair with the sea’ (Norton, 2005). It is, perhaps, no coincidence that: both authors hail from an island state where nowhere is more than 100 km from the sea and where the shipping forecast is a national...

Volunteering as leisure/ leisure as volunteering an international assessment
According to Jeremy Rifkin (1995), Aronowitz and DiFazio (1994) and others, the industrialized world has now entered the early years of the Information Age. Here it is gripped by dramatic declines in employment and public-sector service paralleled by a concomitant rise in the third sector as well as personal and collective dependency on the volunteers comprising it. Moreover, the twin ideas that work is inherently good and that, when it can be...

Destination benchmarking concepts, practices and operations

The purpose of this book is to evaluate approaches to benchmarking and their application within...
