  Unravels the politics surrounding the hegemonic project of tourism development through the example of Lijiang Ancient Town, a mature destination that has been used by the Chinese state as exemplary policy-making. This book examines the dialectical relationships between global and domestic capital, the state, tourists and locals as they collude.
