Description:"As the ethical market grows, responsible travel and the protection of human rights are becoming common currency. For anyone interested in ethical travel and civil liberties, The Good Tourist highlights various corners of the world where the dream ticket and human rights violations collide." "Behind the island paradises, panoramic views, and historical sites there often lies a much misaligned - and tragic - story. Using her twenty-year experience in the field of human rights, as well as personal anecdotes and the testimonies of survivors, Lucy Popescu explores the various abuses that often go unnoticed or are carefully hidden from the tourist, from torture in the Maldives, children's rights in South Africa, slave labour in the US, indigenous rights in Australia to execution in Iran. Taking inspiration from the ethical flying drive and the growing rise in investment of projects to offset carbon emissions, this book is also a practical guide to what can be done after one's holiday to help a worthy cause or support a people."--BOOK JACKET.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
