Recenzje

"This book tackles the ongoing contestation of natural resource ownership and the management of nature and community-based tourism in Southern Africa. These issues are consequential and highly complex. The volume explores four interrelated themes: (i) Land governance and sustainable tourism management, (ii) Managing natural disasters and land reform tourism crises, and (iii) Managing natural disasters and land reform tourism crises. This book will be an important resource for practitioners, faculty and tertiary scholars in related fields, at all levels."

Dr Mucha Mkono, PhD, Lecturer, Business School, The University of Queensland.

"Conservation, Land Conflicts, and Sustainable Tourism in Southern Africa presents a bold collection of papers that address challenging issues of equity, access, restitution, and redistribution in tourism. Tackling these politically sensitive and emotive issues, the book is a long overdue addition to the literature, and should be essential reading for practitioners and tourism ventures."

Anna Spenceley, Senior Research Fellow, University of Johannesburg
