The politics of tourism development: a case of dual governance in Tobago
by Michelle T. McLeod, David Airey
International Journal of Tourism Policy (IJTP), Vol. 1, No. 3, 2007

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to report on an exploratory study of the role that tourism policy plays in influencing tourism development. The research is based on two questions: How does tourism policy influence tourism development in the small twin-island state of Trinidad and Tobago? and How does an arrangement of dual governance in a small twin-island state promote tourism development? The exploration demonstrates that tourism development in the context of Tobago, the smaller of the two islands, has been slowed as a result of dual governance and hence dual policy arrangements.
