Last Resorts: The Cost of Tourism in the Caribbean
Polly Pattullo
Last Resorts looks at this new mega-industry [of tourism] and the way in which it affects people throughout the Caribbean. It explores its structures of ownership and control and what benefits it brings to the region. It analyzes the new vogue of ‘eco-tourism’ and asks whether tourists can preserve the environment. It examines claims that tourism corrupts Caribbean societies and turns culture into floorshow parody.
