Description:There are increasingly strident calls from many sectors of society for the tourism industry, the world s largest industry, to adopt a more ethical approach to the way it does business. In particular, there has been great emphasis for a more ethical approach to the way tourism interacts with the environment, with indigenous peoples, those in poverty, and those in destinations suffering human rights abuses.This book introduces students to the important topic of tourism ethics and illustrates how ethical principles and theory can be applied to address contemporary tourism industry issues. A critical role of the book is to highlight the ethical challenges in the tourism industry and to situate tourism ethics within wider contemporary discussions of ethics in general and comparative industries. Integrating theory and practice the book analyzes a broad range of topical and relevant tourism ethical issues from the urgent big-picture problems facing the industry as a whole (e.g. air travel and global warming) to more micro-scale everyday issues that may face individual tourism operators, or indeed, individual tourists. The book applies relevant ethical frameworks to each issue, addressing a range of ethical approaches to provide the reader with a firm grounding of applied ethics, from first principles. Well chosen international case studies with reflective questions at the end are integrated throughout to provide readers with valuable insight into real world ethical dilemmas, encouraging critical analysis of tourism ethical issues as well as ethically determined decisions.
