THAI TOURISM: HILL TRIBES, ISLANDS AND OPEN-ENDED PROSTITUTION
Studies in Contemporary Thailand No. 4

This book brings together almost two decades of Erik Cohen's studies on different aspects of tourism in Thailand. A broad introductory review of the principal recent trends and transformations in Thai tourism is followed by in-depth studies of three tourist domains: ethnic tourism in the hill tribe area of northern Thailand, vacationing tourism on the islands of southern Thailand, and sex tourism in Bangkok. These studies are based on extensive field work and set within the theoretical framework of contemporary sociology of tourism, on which the author is a leading expert.
