Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the popular imagination, Mallorca is the archetypal mass tourism resort, one of the world's pioneers of mass tourism, linking the resources of the Mediterranean to the supply of tourists from northern and western Europe. It is now attempting to better manage the ubiquitous transformational environmental and socio-economic impact of the industry. The book identifies and examines critically the major socio-economic and political forces that have played a significant part in the formation of the industry; the development of tourism as a business and efforts to diversify the tourism product as it move into the uncertainties of the 21st century.

This is the 'other' Mallorca, a place of breathtaking landscapes and culture ready to be explored and enjoyed. Mallorca offers something for everyone and can be enjoyed on foot, bike, by car or by boat. Head for the dramatic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range for hiking, cycling or just plain relaxing. Those wanting a mellow pace of life will find the sleepy ancient towns and rural fincas of inland Mallorca the perfect antidote to hectic living. For relaxed beach bathing and shoreline activities such as snorkelling, windsurfing or even kite surfing, look South and East for untouristy beaches. Those in need of a city fix can enjoy the bustling life of the cultural capital Palma

This book was released on 2010-07-12 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,3, Stralsund University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: Thinking about tourism what first comes to most people’s minds probably has to do with sun, beaches, outdoor activities, shopping trips, exotic food and famous sights. Of course, all these components make a place a touristic destination and are going to be used by the tourists. Infrastructure is needed as well as certain adaptation of locals. If all necessary resources are given, what should argue against tourism as a motor of local economy and way of development? But on the other hand, a not successfully or towards sustainability directed management of a touristic destination may cause impacts destroying all these attractions irreparable. Even with all precautions against negative impacts taken, nothing can prevent a community from them. Is the average tourist aware of water being a rare resource, especially in the country of his or her vacations? Is the government of any country willing to restrict income and tax revenue provided by tourism to prevent nature from damage? And can anybody expect concerns about sustainability if a destination just started its rise in international tourism? By writing this assignment I am going to take a closer look on the impacts, which were caused by the development of tourism on the most famous Balearic Island, Majorca. The first chapter will deal with general information about the island, the second one will give an overview about the history of tourism and finally the third chapter will deviate possible and existing economical, social and environmental impacts of tourism on Majorca. Finally I will give a brief conclusion about Majorca as a destination impacted by tourism.

Book Synopsis Insiders and Outsiders by : Jacqueline Waldren
Download or read book Insiders and Outsiders written by Jacqueline Waldren and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 1996 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Waldren's engaging book is carefully crafted . . . a superior guide to both the structure and meaning of community and the pleasures of daily life." - Choice ". . . solid accounts of the concepts and social practices related to the casa . . . patronage, and social hierarchy . . . [Waldren] also devotes attention to some less traditional concerns, such as gender, conceptions of social space, tourism, and economic development." - American Anthropologist The indigenous population of Deià has lived side by side with increasing numbers of foreigners over the past century, and what has occurred there over this period offers an example of how the population of one Mediterranean village has gained full advantage from the economic opportunities opened up by foreign investments, without losing the fabric of social relations, the meaning and values of their culture. Deià has been able to continue as a community with its own symbolic boundaries and identity, not in spite of the outsiders (some of whom are well-known literary personalities, artists and musicians) but because of their presence. This study shows how, under the impact of wars, migration, national politics, global economic and technological developments and especially tourism, the categories of Insider and Outsider are contracted and expanded, and reinterpreted to fit the constantly changing "reality" of the society; they assume different meanings at different times. The conflicts and resulting compromises over a hundred-year period have provided a sense of history that allows each group to define, develop, adapt and sustain their sense of belonging to their own communities.
