Ten case studies of tourism development on tropical islands apply political ecology approach (focused on the politics of environmental change) to investigating the motivations and roles of various actors in the development process and their impact on the environment in such places as the Cayman Islands, St. Lucia, Zanzibar (Tanzania), the Seychelles, Hainan (China), the Philippines, Bintan Island (Indonesia), and Ilha Grande (Brazil). Presented by Gössling (Department of Service Management, Lund U., Sweden), the studies take into account local actors such as villagers, tourists, tourist workers, and police; national political and economic actors; and international actors, including the World Trade Organization, nongovernmental organizations, and airline and hotel corporations.
