520 _a"Residential Tourism: (De)Constructing Paradise offers the first in-depth, critical exploration of the foreign retirement/expatriate communities proliferating both in size and number throughout Latin America. Amidst the aggressive development and promotion of these international destinatiosn as residential `paradises` intended for retirement, leisure and experiences of exotica, this book draws on a diversity of perspectives in order to analyze the social and spatial impacts that residential tourism creates for the people and places it directly affects at the local level."--Jacket.
