Ant 5

Question 1

What is global tourism?

Answer 1

International travel

Question 2

How is global tourism generating new forms of social inequality?

Answer 2

enforces the roles of rich and poor, the privileged get to travel while the poor are the objects of their fascination.

Question 3

Authenticity

Answer 3

is lost in this sense because Glocalization is the tour guide’s use of technology to cater his tour to what his patrons want to see. The patrons see only what they want to see, not what is seen and done there on a day-to-day basis.

Question 4

Branding of Culture

Answer 4

Culture is something that is bought/sold between tourists, not authentic at all. Culture is a commodity, the “spirit hut” from cannibal tours. “Packaging culture” for marketing purposes so it appeals to tourists.
