Issues of Social Development and Tourism

Chapter 7 Section 5

Illiteracy Among Women in the Middle East Islamic Fundamentalism has pushed for

segregated schools where women would be trained for lives as a housewife

Islamic Fundamentalism has encouraged a male-dominated society

Secular Education promotes more freedoms and rights – (i.e. choice of school, not segregated)

Secular states have strong economic ties with western nations which helps develop high-quality education systems (Israel)

Roles of Women are Changing!!

GIRLS RULE AND BOYS DROOL!!!

The Geography of Tourism◦ Ancient historical sites and globally significant

religious localities are a large draw◦ Tourism is a large part of the regional economy in

Turkey, Israel, and Egypt

◦ Negative impacts Environmental damages due to increased human

population Damages to archeological and sacred sites Produces a local underclass of poorly paid

service workers Tourist lifestyles contrasting with traditional

ways of life!
