How do we Live & Imagine in ?paradise?? What is the relationship between tourism and culture? How do gender, race, and sexual labour intersect in this relationship? What are the (social and economic) costs of producing ?paradise?? How does tourism affect our identity? Can ?Art Tourism? (locally led) be a viable and more ethical model of tourism?
