| Summary |
"The book investigates tourism as a form of globalization within the context of the island of Bali, which has been voted the world's top island destination for the third time running by American travelers. The volume covers the onset of the Asian Crisis, the longest stock-market crash since the Great Depression. The authors chart the turbulence that has afflicted the island at a time of market uncertainty and global political strife and analyse the responses of Bali's business and community leaders to the crises that have buffeted the island since the fall of Suharto."--BOOK JACKET |
