Abstract

The study was conducted in Nicaragua, Central America. The purpose of the study was to examine how small-scale tourist programmes organised in small communities had affected the communities. The research data consist of interview transcriptions which were originally in Spanish and were then translated into English. The questions were about the development of the tourism project and how it affected the life and values of the communities.

The dataset is only available in English.
