Footprints in Paradise centers on how Okinawans' sense of place is transforming rapidly, along with language, landscapes, cultural traditions, and wildlife: from marginalized and exoticized island phenomena into global heritage resources worth cherishing by insiders and outsiders. Footprints in Paradise is intended for readers interested in the anthropology of US-Japan-Okinawa relations, tourism and island environments, the politics of ecological sustainability, and the shifting ethics of human-animal relationships in the early twenty-first century. 410 0$aNew directions in anthropology ;$vVolume 40. 517 3 $aFootprints in paradise: Ethnography of Ecotourism, Local Knowledge and Nature Therapies in Okinawa 606 $aEcotourism$zJapan$vOkinawa Island 606 $aEconomic development$zJapan$zOkinawa Island 610 $aAnthropology 610 $aCoral 610 $aEcotourism 610 $aJapan 610 $aMongoose 610 $aOkinawa Prefecture 615 0$aEcotourism 615 0$aEconomic development 676 $a338.479152294 700 $aMurray$b Andrea E.$0907141 801 0$bWaSeSS 801 1$bWaSeSS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219864703321 996 $aFootprints in paradise$92029383 997 $aUNINA
