Abstract

Questioning the validity of recent developments in tourism planning, the author suggests the use of the ambiguous, yet appropriate, term 'progressive tourism' as a suitable nomenclature for these developments. He then argues that visitor management is being lauded, glibly and erroneously, as an answer to tourism impact.
