520 1 $a"The fast growing phenomenon of volunteer tourism encompasses a diverse range of activities, from conserving environments to working with host communities to alleviate poverty. However, understanding the complex relationship between volunteering and tourism requires a wide analytical framework. Theoretical and empirical case studies from leading researchers in the field explore the experiences of the volunteer tourist and the power relationships between volunteers and host communities and commercial, non-commercial and government entities involved in developing and supporting volunteer tourism.
520 8 $aProviding an insight into how volunteer tourism is growing and developing, this volume will be essential to those interested in sustainable tourism and community and social development as well as commercial operators, non-government organizations and volunteer management organizations."--Jacket.
