What is Contrast?

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them. However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different. It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted. A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent. However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Popularity of Tourist Destinations Tourism

This paper is about popularity of tourist destinations. Apart from political factors, there are economic factors too that affect the tourists coming in and going out of a country. The economic factors are fairly simple to understand and can be divided into macro- and micro- economic factors. The world has been undergoing through an economic recession post-2008 (VERICK, Sher and Islam, Iyanatul, 2010). People tend to generally spend less on luxuries such as vacations, and tend to focus on necessities. Hence, the control on spending leads to lowering of the tourism all over the world. According to the UK Office for National Statistics, tourism declined in the United Kingdom by 7% after the recession took its toll (ONS, 2009).
