How far has tourism brought empowerment as autonomy, agency, and authority to the women working in and producing tourism?

The first of its kind this book delivers: • A critical approach to gender and tourism development; • Stories of individual women working across the World in many aspects of tourism; • A truly global expereince in its outlook and coverage. With its questions on the extent to which tourism brings women empowerment Critical Voices of Gender, Tourism and Women’s Empowerment will be an engaging and though-provoking read to students and researchers in the areas of tourism, gender studies, development and anthropology.
