Beschreibung:
After studying social anthropology and extensive travel in Indonesia, Stroma Cole started her own tour operating business. For six years she led small groups all over the Indonesian archipelago. On her return to the UK Stroma worked at Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College. Stroma continued to visit the remote Ngadha villages on the island of Flores to study the effects of tourism. Stroma completed her PhD in 2003 and has published extensively. She continues to research tourism in Indonesia and other less economically developed countries. She now works at the University of the West of England and is Chair of Tourism Concern.
This ethnographic study provides a holistic, multi-stakeholder view of the first twenty years of tourism development in a remote region of Eastern Indonesia. It examines how tourism is intertwined with life in a non-western, marginal community and analyses tourism and sociocultural change, conflict, globalisation, poverty and powerlessness.
