Book excerpt: HauptbeschreibungTime has a strong impact on the leisure and tourism industry. How people spend their time now and particularly in the future will have major implications for leisure and tourism markets. At this stage there are increasingly new patterns of time allocation and hybrid forms of life time activities. Many of the new patterns of time allocation are overlapping into the sphere of recreational activities. Also the traditional use of leisure time itself is changing into new actions. Among the major forces which account for these changes are long-term declines in economic and productivi.

Download or read book Tourism in European Cities written by John Ebejer and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism in European Cities explores the relationship between tourist activity and the architecture and built environment within which it takes place. This is the first book to consider urban tourism with a particular focus on European cities. Tourism in European Cities considers the tourist experience and the various elements that shape it. In many cities, the historic core plays a crucial role in tourism either as the location of the more important attractions, or as an attraction in its own right. The book dedicates a chapter to urban heritage and its relationship to tourism, including urban conservation and UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Another chapter considers contemporary architecture and debates some cities’ efforts to use iconic architecture, in particular, to enhance their attractiveness in the context of increased competition between cities. In the context of competition, many cities are resorting to events as a strategy to reposition and differentiate themselves from other cities. Major events are accompanied by major investment in event venues and in urban infrastructure. The city often serves as a backdrop to the urban festival as activities and performances are staged in the city’s urban spaces. This book is essential reading for students of tourism and urban geography. It is also of interest to students of urban planning and architecture, and anyone keen to learn more about tourism and European cities.

Download or read book Early Framers of Tourism Knowledge, Volume III written by Metin Kozak and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-27 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book emphasises the work, the remarkable contributions, and the lifetime achievements of internationally respected scholars who have made lifelong contribution to advancing tourism studies and the dissemination of tourism–based knowledge and education across the world. Strengthening a field and its ability to form the own traditions is undoubtedly possible with a bridge to be established between the past, present and future. The capacity of research carried out today and in the future is built on the outputs of education and research completed in the past, adding new links to the chain. The history of tourism studies and education dates to the early years of the 20th century and began recording a momentum in its second half. There is, therefore, a lot more to do in terms of the institutionalization of such a young and dynamic field and this book aims to introduce tourism scholars with their widest geographical representation, dating from the first years of tourism research back in the early 1900s. Volume III of IV includes tributes to 20 scholars who have defined tourism as an object of academic study, established its foundations and organisations, and widened its scope to encompass thousands of empirical studies. Each of these volumes contains different profiles thereby bringing 80 of the pioneers in tourism more vividly to life. This book was originally published as a special issue of Anatolia: An International Journal of Tourism & Hospitality Research.

Book excerpt: The concept of welfare is a somewhat neglected area within tourism studies, despite the continued growth of interest in key issues such as ethics, tourist safety, employee's well-being, human rights, ethnocentrism, cultural sensitivity and behaviour codes, green consumerism, and the perceptions of management of 'sustainability'. This book provides an explanation, definition and a critique of welfare and a welfare approach covering these issues.

Book excerpt: Tourism has long been considered a source of social inequality, and as the industry continues to expand rapidly there is an increasing need for a better understanding of its consequences. Providing a synthesis of tourism as a source of injustice, Tourism and Inequality addresses a wide range of interrelated forms of inequality, investigating its association with class, nation, ethnicity, race, gender, disability and age. Chapters examine routes towards social justice and initiatives that aim to advance poverty alleviation, fair trade, ethics and human rights. The analysis of a wide variety of case studies from around the world allows an exploration into the ways that tourism can be used positively to alleviate the impacts of social injustice. Providing a unique multidisciplinary perspective, the authors aim to lead the way towards a more socially responsible future for tourism practice. This book provides a useful resource for students of tourism and tourism management, as well as industry professionals and policy makers.
