Art tourism and paradigms of island revitalization in Japan
Art tourism in rural destinations in Japan has received attention in both media and academia. Two major regional art festivals that are conducted in a regular cycle have triggered this boom in the 21st century. However, art and cultural tourism have formed an important part of regional revitalization strategies for 30 years. This paper focuses on four island destinations in the Seto Inland Sea that have incorporated art in their branding strategi…

This study links tourism entrepreneurship, rural development and multi-stakeholder partnerships to situate community resourcefulness as a key plank in the sustainable tourism discourse. The…
Island studies and socio-economic development policies in East Asia
The globalization of island studies has resulted in a greater recognition by island studies scholars of the need for more regional-based island research to encompass the diversity of island knowledge and experiences.

Historical literature and contemporar…
Dark tourism as educational tourism: The case of ‘hope tourism’ in Fukushima, Japan
This article examines how dark tourism has been adopted and developed in Japan and suggests how it can be linked to educational tourism, through the case of a ‘Hope Tourism Guided Tour’ held in Fukushima in 2018.

This is connected to the long history of educational tourism and to the…

The aim of this paper is to examine ways in which national parks in various nations employ the collaboration of stakeholders in park management and conflict resolution by focusing on four countries…
Cool Japan' - a hot research topic: Tourism geography in Japan
How do changes in the ‘real’ world of tourism affect the academic world? Will an increase in international tourism open up an inward-looking research community? Do more tourists lead to more touris
Innovation in island ecotourism in different contexts: Yakushima (Japan) and Tahiti and its Islands
This article examines whether the future of tourism in island destinations lies in more and continued innovation on the part of all stakeholders so tourists will consider the extra expense of travelling a worthwhile investment. Islands have long been icons as tourism destinations. However, established destination images can cause a lack in adaptability to changing markets. Though located in different parts of the world and seeking different marke…

The innovative potential of inbound tourism in Japan for destination development – a case study of Hida Takayama
In contrast to the rapid development of outbound tourism since the 1980s, inbound tourism has played a minor role in Japan until 2002, when the Japanese government embarked on a policy of active enticement of foreign tourists. Through active promotion and pushed by economic development in neighboring countries, visitor numbers almost doubled from 4,771,555 in 2001 to 8,350,835 in 2008; since then, worldwide economic downturn, disaster, and a soar…
