Regional Differences In Financial Resources, Assets, And Savings Behavior Of Low-Income Families, Joan Koonce Lewis

Journal of Rural Social Sciences

Broad support for tourism development was found across all groups, with the caveat that economic growth not take place at the expense of community character or environmental quality. In general, however, members of conservation organizations were more concerned about the negative impacts of tourism development than were business people or public officials. The methodology employed highlights issues of agreement and conflict among influential community groups. …
