Description

This book will appeal to a wide-ranging audience, including university libraries, academic researchers and popular readership. It will be particularly welcomed by those interested in tourism studies as there is precious little critical work on tourism workforces throughout the academic literature. The issues associated with workforces addressed in this book serve both to address a lacuna on the critical tourism studies side and growing concern on the practitioner side over workforce quality and supply. However, because this book deals with broader political economic processes that are shaping local places to induce demand for extra-local workers, it has a potential for interest well outside the traditional bounds of tourism studies. Key topics included in this book are: labor migration, guest workers, housing shortages, gentrification, and precarious work. While an academic audience is expected, the topic is of interest to several practitioner groups. These include stakeholders in local tourism-dependent areas dealing with seasonality, labor shortages, housing issues, town planners dealing with mitigating workforce housing shortages, and anyone with an interest in immigration reform.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
