Presenting concepts, case studies and practitioner insights, the chapters explore what putting locals first might mean; the constraints of markets and the promise of alternatives; \'tours\' and \'turns\' offering possibilities for circles, cycles and connections; approaches for democratising tourism; and building an ethos of relatedness through a relational imperative to face the future together.
This Local Turn starts by centring Local Communities at the heart of tourism and identifies ways to ensure Local community rights and benefits in tourism.
Embracing Local tourism as relational, the contributors examine how tourism can be reoriented to better connect people, place and planet.
