The Red Riviera: Gender, Tourism, and Postsocialism on the Black Sea Hardcover - 2005
by Kristen Ghodsee
From the rear cover
"This engaging book draws readers into unfamiliar tourist playgrounds in Bulgaria. Kristen Ghodsee deftly intertwines ethnographies with widely held assumptions about how the transition from communism to the free market affected the economy, the society, and the people. Tourism has rewarded the highly educated women who dominate the industry. She further questions the relevance of women's NGOs which emphasize non-economic issues rather than focusing on education and jobs."--Irene Tinker, author of "Street Foods: Urban Food and Employment in Developing Countries"

Description:
Hardback. New. Challenging the idea that women have fared worse than men in Eastern Europe's transition from socialism to a market economy, this is an ethnography of women working in Bulgaria's popular sea and ski resorts. It explains how women working in the industry have successfully negotiated their way through Bulgaria's capitalist transformation.
