Focusing on the intersection of travel and urban development, the book examines tourism's impact in Southern Europe, particularly in Spain and Bulgaria, from the 1970s onward. It highlights how post-dictatorship growth influenced the integration of post-socialist nations in the 1990s, while also addressing the economic, cultural, and political challenges posed by tourist economies. The narrative reveals the environmental degradation and social inequality stemming from mass tourism, ultimately critiquing its role in deepening regional disparities within the European Union.
