This term is used to describe places along the lines of unethical safaris in Kenya, certain all-inclusive resorts in India, and fortress-like compounds in areas like Cape Town, etc, which are built directly in the center of impoverished and economically destitute geographic areas. Luxury ghettos are blood-sucking establishments that exist solely for the daillances of the wealthy, while the surrounding land receives little to no economic benefit.
“It’s very important to connect to the community and not to just have luxury ghettos” -- Praveen Moman
