• Broschiertes Buch

This book presents the 'brokered image,' a constructed identity influenced by tourism and the global economy, expressed through a variety of displays and performances in rural Tyrol. This image of old world simplicity complicates interactions between and among hosts and guests as evidenced in this small mountain village in Austria.
