Partners in Paradise: Tourism Practices, Heritage Policies, and Anthropological Sites - Asian Thought and Culture
Robert J. Shepherd
How and why do some places in the world become symbols of illusive paradise, and what does this mean for their residents? This book examines the origins of a Euro-American fascination with places imagined to exist outside of Modernity. It offers a lens on the politics of development, modernization, and cultural preservation.
