Cape Breton in the Long Twentieth Century
The emergence, dominance, and alarmingly rapid retreat of modernist industrial capitalism on Cape Breton Island during the “long twentieth century” offers a particularly captivating window on the lasting and varied effects of deindustrialization. Now, at the tail end of the industrial moment in North American history, the story of Cape Breton Island presents an opportunity to reflect on how industrialization and deindustrialization have shaped human experiences. Covering the period between 1860 and the early 2000s, this volume looks at trade unionism, state and cultural responses to deindustrialization, including the more recent pivot towards the tourist industry, and the lived experienc...
Peace Journeys
This collection of essays presents the very latest research on the peace-building dimension of sacred and secular journeys at individual, societal, regional and global levels. Not since the 1980s has there been any concerted effort to explore the potential of such journeys in helping to bridge the divide that separates people of diverse ethnicities, religions and cultures. This volume gathers together empirical studies, regional analyses, and personal reflections from four continents and twelve countries, including Sri Lanka, Syria, Ethiopia, and Indonesia, which highlight the potential of religious tourism and pilgrimage for promoting interfaith solidarity, natural dialogue, and inner peace. It will be of interest to religion, tourism and peace scholars, as well as to political scientists and anthropologists.

This book analyses its legal protection, including from within human rights, intellectual property, and contract law.
Advanced Introduction to Tourism Economics
This Advanced Introduction is an accessible and critical review of the economic foundations of tourism. Taking a regional approach based in macro- and resource economics, David Marcouiller points to how the competitive aspect of tourism can be transformative to regional activity. Offering insight into the decision-making process among both private and public stakeholders, this book makes clear the increasing necessity of using sound planning principles and practice to shape tourism consumption and production.
Wish You Were Here
This novella is about memory, love, guilt and crime. The main character, Frederico is plunged back into his past by a hush-hush investigation involving influential people that he, as an inspector, is called upon to look into, together with his superior, the beautiful Chief-Inspector Nela or Manuela Carvalho. The author shows us how nothing is a coincidence in this world and how all things fall into place over time, with Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here acting like Proust's madeleine to retrieve memories long buried.
