Local hegemonic blocs: the case of tourism in Rhodes

Avdikos, Vasilis

Local hegemonic blocs: the case of tourism in Rhodes created by Vasilis Avdikos - European Urban and Regional Studies Volume 18, number 1 .

The paper explores the ways that a powerful local industry can be regarded as a local ideological hegemonic bloc. The concept of the local hegemonic bloc is deployed in a case study of the Rhodes tourist industry to provide a way of analysing how a specific spatial industrial concentration creates and sustains an ideological atmosphere locally, which supports the industry’s status while simultaneously legitimating exploitative actions.
