Summary:

"Degrowth in tourism is the voluntary shift to rebuild destinations and local economies where consumption, production and the exploitation of resources are minimal. This book takes steps to address the paucity of combined research on tourism and degrowth by presenting emergent knowledge and research on the dynamics of degrowth from a tourism perspective by presenting cases from different parts of the world"-- Provided by publisher.
