Abstract

Tourism can be viewed as a social problem or a theoretical question, and the effects of tourism to host populations have long been discussed in the literature (Dann et al., 1988: 3).   However, little attention has been directed at attempting to explain why host populations, some of  whom openly admit they do not wish to see tour- ism development in their communities, are unable or unwilling to keep development from occurring.  To better understand this phenomenon this paper will consider attitudes toward tourism through the context of a hegemonic framework.
