Quality of life (QOL) research in tourism has gained much momentum over the last two decades. Academics working in this area research issues related to tourists and host communities. Practitioners are becoming increasingly interested in understanding the science that allows them to develop better marketing and managerial programs designed to enhance the quality of life of tourists. Tourism bureaus and government agencies are increasingly interested in issues of sustainable tourism, specifically in understanding and measuring the impact of tourism on the quality of life of the residents of the host communities. This handbook covers all relevant topics and is divided into two parts: research relating to travelers/tourists, and research relating to the residents of host communities. It is the only state-of-the-art reference book in its field and will prove invaluable to academics interested in QOL research, as well as tourism practitioners interested in applying the science of QOL in the tourism industry.

Researchers and planners have widely examined the role of community participation in tourism development. However, much of this has addressed more the actual involvement of a community in tourism, including type, level, barriers, and limitations of community participation. Tourism is now recognized as being an economic activity of global significance. As the importance of the activity has increased, attention has been given to it by governments, organizations in both the public and private sectors, and academics. The book discusses the tourism industry and the host community within which it works. It is directed at those in the industry who want to know more about the structure, activities, and community they work within.

Annotation. As a result of the ongoing growth in the tourism industry, many destinations around the world are undergoing transformations. New destinations are being 'discovered' in regions previously ignored, as people search for regions that are yet unspoiled by the ravages of mass tourism. At the same time, traditional destinations are experiencing rapid environmental, socio-cultural and economic modifications. These changes have the most effect on the destination community - the location where tourists spend their time and money, and influence development or degradation of the local environment.Tourism in Destination Communities describes both the positive and negative effects of tourism on the destination community. The chapters are divided into three sections which address the relationship between tourism and the destination community, the various impacts of tourism on the destination community and the challenges and opportunities for destination communities. Each chapter contains brief case studies and empirical examples.

The global phenomenon of Voluntourism, or short-term volunteer tourism, is increasing in popularity. This has sparked a debate involving both the definition and objective of Voluntourism, within the mass media, the tourism industry, and academia. The majority of the articles concentrate on the benefits or inherent risks for volunteer tourists. But little has been written from the perspective of host communities that receive volunteer tourists, presenting a one-way bias. The objective of this work is to provide a more inclusive understanding of Voluntourism, by focusing on how volunteer tourism is defined by host communities, what host communities hope to gain from volunteer tourists, and what projects host communities prefer volunteer tourists to undertake. A review of the host communities' cultural background is undertaken in order to contextualize the underpinnings and economic drivers within each community in which volunteer tourism is overlaid. The scope of this research is limited to the Sapa area in North Western Vietnam, but the implications may have greater reaches.

Summary: This book revisits and further develops the topics and themes covered in Volunteer Tourism: Experiences That Make a Difference, written over 10 years ago. Concentrating on the experience of the volunteer tourist and the host community, this new edition builds on the view of volunteer tourism as a positive and sustainable form of tourism to examine a broader spectrum of behaviours and experiences and consider critically where the volunteer tourist experience both compliments and collides with host communities, using multiple case studies. The book has nine chapters and a subject index.

Written in 1989 when the modern tourist industry had reached a crucial stage in its development, when increased mobility and affluence had led to more extensive and extravagant travel, and competition within the industry had intensified, this book is comprehensive examination of tourism development. The author provides a new perspective for its evaluation, and a suggested strategy for its continued development and evolution. He examines tourism from the viewpoint of destination areas and their aspirations, and recommends an ecological, community approach to developing and planning - one which encourages local initiative, local benefits, and a tourism product in harmony with the local environment and its people.
