Abstract

The present work aims at counter posing the current form of analyzing the tourism phenomenon in a post-modern context, in other words, it is an attempt to understand tourism facts by keeping away from considerations which are merely commercial and simulative, and having a more human and helpful approach in examining the system in we find ourselves and go beyond the appearance to reach the essence.
