Abstract
The book is a tutor’s manual, explaining sociological theories with the final goal of discovering the very reason of modern tourism. The leading paradigm is basically the sociological perspective of mass (new) tourism. Maybe every question can find here a solution because the author seems involved in discussing every point of view, from the past to the future, from history to economics.The society is a result of the process of industrialisation and urbanisation, which have created an artificial style of life that is generally refused and whose only way to escape is tourism.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
