Description

Explore the complex world of one of the fastest growing niche tourism markets with Volunteer Tourism: Popular Humanitarianism in Neoliberal Times. Published by Routledge, this book offers the first full-length treatment of volunteer tourism through a longitudinal ethnographic perspective. It examines how tourists pay to participate in conservation, humanitarian, and development oriented projects. This text provides a deep dive into the social dynamics of global travel by offering a comprehensive and comparative study. By looking at the perspectives of Thai host community members, NGO practitioners, and international volunteer tourists, the book breaks through disciplinary and chronological boundaries. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of humanitarian work and global tourism trends.

Key Features

Provides a unique longitudinal ethnographic perspective on the rapidly growing volunteer tourism market.

Examines the motivations and impacts of tourists participating in conservation and humanitarian projects.

Offers a comparative study involving Thai host communities, NGO practitioners, and international travelers.

Explores the relationship between humanitarianism and neoliberalism within the tourism industry.

First published in 1980, this book looks at the social structure of 18th and 19th century rural Britain. It is particularly concerned with the relationship of landlord and peasant in the rural village and examines the open-closed model of English rural social structure in great depth. In doing so, it explores the ways in which the estate system influenced urban development and how the peasant system facilitated the industrialisation of many villages. This book will be of particular interest to students of Victorian and social history, industrialisation and urbanisation.
