Western money for southern sympathy: how the Tuareg from Timia are instrumentalizing tourists to support their 'exotic' village.

This chapter presents results from empirical research on the relations between the indigenous Tuareg of a little village in the Aïr Mountains in West Africa, and western tourists. The research casts new light on 'host-guest' relationships and raises questions about the application of western concepts of exoticism and exotic culture in studying economic and cultural dynamics between ethnotourism and indigenous culture.
