Document Summary
Tourism, culture and development chapter 8: conflicts of tourism. Guests of honour: villagers considered tourist clothing disrespectful, asking for sweets was frequently viewed as begging by tourists; both villagers and tourists dislike what they see as begging. Tou(cid:396)ists" adat: the wearing of inappropriate clothing causes disquiet not only for an individual who observes the skimpily dressed tourist but upsets the state of equilibrium in the village. Proud or ashamed: tourism promotes pride, self-confidence and solidarity among those being visited. Crowded and noisy are positive attributes of indonesian places in the eyes of indonesians. Observing or taking part: tourists may attend a ritual to observe the real tradition of a fascinating culture but they are not invited as just observers but as participants. Making villagers malu: tourist behaviour causes the villagers to feel ashamed as a result of holding different values.
