ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The chapters of this book have been developed in conjunction with the research and consultancy activities of the Institute for Tourism and its associates. The central message of this book is that tourism planning and development needs to be located not only within the context of tourism but within its broader economic, social, cultural, political and environmental concerts.

We are grateful to the managers and staff of tourism boards and professional associati
