Tourists- are people who are rich and can afford to visit the whole world.
They're a mixture of both from both worlds. Race and gender play a part in this to a certain extent. Not all one race is wealthy enough to be tourists. I believe that race and gender don't play a major role in mobility. There are many people in the world from different races, gender and backgrounds that have the ability to be a tourist. Some people get born into wealthiness and others get lucky enough to achieve it on their own. But most lets say doctor's are wealthy but are not considered a tourist. They don't just get up and leave to travel the world, because if they did they wouldn't continue to make money.
These categories are shifting and changing because the way the world is changing with the economy. People now a days are not willing to spend money freely to travel all over the world. People are bieng smart with their money and saving it and bieng percaucious. "For the vast majority of people in the world, however, mobility is greatly limited-and, when movement does become a necessity, it is usually due to terrible economic, natural, or political circumstances that have generated refudee crises around the world." O'brien page 338. People become comftorable in their homes and usually don't want to move all around. Americans enjoy having stability in their lives and homes.
I agree with what you are saying to an extent. I don't think that the amount of money matters that a person has. It all depends on determiantion and the person wanting to travel. When it comes to 1st world countries and 3rd world countries those in the first world tend to travel more due to the fact they are more wanting to spend money
