For decades, tourism has long been a major source of
revenues for several countries including Thailand.
While tourism has become increasingly important to
many cities and destination communities, the most
challenging issue is how they can sustain their
social relations, local identity, and sense of place
in the face of global tourism. This research,
therefore, seeks to examine the interaction and
confrontation between the capitalist development of
tourism and local people living in the place-bound
locality of Tha Tien, an old community located in
Bangkok s historic city. By utilizing a place-making
concept, the researcher constructs an analytical
framework that explains how external forces reshape
a place. Another major contribution of this research
is to establish a guiding policy framework of
responsible tourism. In this regard, this book
should be useful to all tourism stakeholders
including government institutions, private
enterprises, and local communities, or anyone else
who may be considering applying such framework to
help them facilitate positive outcomes of tourism
development and enhance the quality of place
attributes.
