Globalisation, Tourism and Simulacra: A Baudrillardian Study of Tourist Space in Thailand

By Kunphatu Sakwit

Exploring the extent to which Baudrillard's theory can apply in a non-western context, this book draws on studies of famous floating markets to explore the effects of globalisation and tourism in Thailand, contending that tourism can in fact recreate rather than erode local culture.
