Concluding Remarks: The Future of Caribbean Tourism. 330 $aThis book explores the distinct nuisances and obstacles that are brought on by the tourism and travel industry within Caribbean small island developing countries (SIDS). The author explores best practices and measures that can be used to overcome or alleviate the hardship faced by the industry by giving voice to the nations that are often overshadowed or restrained by their developed counterparts. This book reflects on and assesses the transformative power that tourism has in Caribbean small island developing states, while unearthing the threats that affect the longevity and economic viability of the industry in general. It is an important and overdue text focusing on this unique group of islands and will inform students and researchers on the struggles and opportunities they face. . 606 $aTourism 606 $aManagement 606 $aInternational economic integration 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aTourism Management 606 $aEmerging Markets and Globalization 606 $aManagement 615 0$aTourism. 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aInternational economic integration. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 14$aTourism Management. 615 24$aEmerging Markets and Globalization. 615 24$aManagement. 676 $a338.47917290452 700 $aSpencer$b Andrew$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0144807 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337803503321 996 $aTravel and Tourism in the Caribbean$92253253 997 $aUNINA
