Description:

Van den Berghe (sociology & anthropology, U. of Washington) investigated the impact of tourism in a Mexican town he has visited periodically since 1959, focusing in particular on tourism motivated by an active search for the ethnically exotic. He reveals some of the benefits to the community and some of the drawbacks and potential dangers, and he concludes with a warning against jumping too quickly to conclusions.
