Tourism and Borders

Contemporary Issues, Policies and International Research

Herausgeber: Wachowiak, Helmut

Beschreibung

Although globalization has led to increased cross-border traffic, there has been little examination of how crossing political boundaries affects tourism and vice versa. Bringing together case studies from Europe, the USA and Southern Africa, this volume discusses current issues and policies, destination management and communication, and planning in cross-border areas.
