Resumen: "As a multi-billion dollar global industry, the business of cruise tourism in recent years has commanded news media attention especially on issues of environmental pollution, passenger safety and worker rights. Yet, consumer interest in cruise vacations has not been adversely affected by negative publicity and it continues to grow at an average of 8-9 per cent per annum with state competing to attreact cruise ship dockings. This unique mode of business focusing on the production and consumption of pleasure at sea and on land offers us an unprecedented opportunity to analyse the manner in which ongoing economic restructuring processes to bring about free markets in goods, services and labour, can and does involve both life on land and at sea."--P. [4]
