Book: The Changing World Of Bali: Religion, Society And Tourism The guidebook image of Bali as the 'last paradise', and the Balinese as a peace loving, spiritually developed people who assiduously perform the colorful religious ceremonies which is so vital to attracting tourists to Bali was generated in colonial times and supplanted earlier and different images. What is less clear, and what Leo Howe analyses in detail are the myriad ways in which the Balinese have responded to such an image and to the influx of outside influence breaking on the shores of their island. Focusing on the fascinating interrelationship between tourism, economy, culture and religion in Bali, Leo Howe paints a 21st century picture of the Balinese.
