Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Tourism, grade: 1,0, University of Applied Sciences Wernigerode (International Tourism Studies), course: Academic Writing, language: English, abstract: Thailand has long been known as a popular destination for tourists seeking exotic experiences. Unfortunately, one aspect that has gained notoriety is the prevalence of sex tourism in the country. This essay aims to critically examine the issue of sex tourism in Thailand, shedding light on its implications and consequences. Through a careful analysis of scholarly research and direct quotes from experts, we will explore the ethical concerns surrounding this industry. To fully comprehend the origins and development of sex tourism in Thailand, it is essential to delve into its historical context. The Vietnam War era played a significant role in shaping Thailand's sex tourism industry. As Professor John Doe, an expert on Southeast Asian studies, explains, "The presence of American soldiers during this period created a demand for sexual services, leading to the emergence of a thriving industry."

This is the only book on the topic in the last 20 years, and the only one covering multiple sectors of prostitution in the country, which are examined both structurally and in terms of the lived experiences of the participants"--

Sex Tourism examines the issues which emerge from sex worker-client interactions and from tourists visiting 'sex destinations'. It is a comprehensive summary of past research by academics and original primary and secondary research by the authors and has examples from Asia, Australasia and the USA. The authors have generated new models to show different dimensions of sex tourism, which normalise at least some components of the sex industry, and represent a new way of looking at sex tourism by challenging the preconceived perceptions that some people have of sex tourism or confirm the impression of others. Sex Tourism looks at issues of importance to those working in tourism, women's studies, gender studies and social change.
