  • Neue Pioniere in ostalpinen Peripherräumen: Die Wiederbelebung von Geisterdörfern und partiellen Wüstungen in Friaul

    Open AccessMichael Beismann, Peter Čede et al.ARTICLEGeographica Helvetica2022

    This study is based on amenity migration as theoretical concept and thus on the assumption that new in-migration improves the appearance, resilience and socioeconomic situation of remote alpine regions. Current revitalisation processes in Friulian alpine villages, having become sparsely inhabited or indeed real ghost villages, are particularly suitable for such studies. The research builds on the one hand on analysis of the current state of the a…

  • Symbolic ethnicity, cultural and linguistic landscape: Remnants of ‘Little Europe’ in the Valcanale (Northeast Italy)

    Anna-Maria Plautz, Leonie Hasenauer et al.ARTICLENational Identities2021References: 4

    This study investigates ‘Little Europe’, the rural, mountainous Italian region of the quadrilingual Valcanale, bordering Austria and Slovenia. The combined analysis of cultural landscape, linguistic landscape (LL) and symbolic ethnicity provides a new concept to examine multilingual regions. In this once Austrian valley, where German was the official language before WWI, Italian now dominates over minority languages, as exemplified by official si…

  • Amenity Migration in the Alps: Applying Models of Motivations and Effects to 2 Case Studies in Italy

    Open AccessRoland Löffler, Judith Walder et al.ARTICLEMountain Research and Development2016

    Using 2 models, this article illustrates different forms of in-migration in the Alps, the motivations for relocation, and effects of newcomers on their destination areas. Since the 1990s, more and more communities in the European Alps, which had suffered from depopulation for many decades, have become in-migration destinations. This new demographic trend is particularly pronounced in the French and Italian western Alps and on the periphery of the…

  • New Highlanders in Traditional Out-migration Areas in the Alps: The Example of the Friulian Alps

    Open AccessRoland Löffler, Michael Beismann et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2014Cited by: 3References: 16

    According to the population and migration development on a municipal level in the Alps since the last decades, it has become obvious that the population gain that began in France in the 1980s has been expanding ever since towards the eastern parts of the Alps. In this study we illustrate the distribution of the newcomers in various distinctiveness such as re-migrants, second home owners, multi-dwelling residents, relationship-migrants, new highla…

  • New Highlanders in traditionellen Abwanderungsgebieten der Alpen: Das Beispiel der friulanischen Alpen

    Open AccessRoland Löffler, Michael Beismann et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2014References: 16

    Ausgehend von den französischen Westalpen der 1970er Jahre hat die neue Zuwanderung im Alpenraum mittlerweile auch große Teile der Ostalpen erreicht. Vorliegende Studie wirft einen Blick auf die Verteilung der Newcomer sowie ihrer unterschiedlichen Erscheinungsformen wie etwa Rückwanderer, Zweitwohnungsbesitzer, multi-lokal Wohnende, „Beziehungsmigranten“, „New Highlander“, Arbeitsmigranten, aber auch Einheimische die ihren Zweitwohnsitz über ein…

  • The Impact of Community-based Afro-alpine Tourism on Regional Development: A Case Study in the Mt Kenya Region

    Open AccessErnst Steinicke, M NeuburgerARTICLEMountain Research and Development2012

    Can existing Afro-alpine tourism promote poverty mitigation and resolve regional disparities? This article explores the significance of alpine tourism in the Mt Kenya region based on analysis of the state of the art and official statistical data along with own surveys, mapping activities, and household observations. The results show that economic benefits from mountaineering tourism in the Mt Kenya region are smaller than commonly calculated, and…

  • Sochi/Сочи 2014: Olympic Winter Games between High Mountains and Seaside

    Open AccessKurt Scharr, Ernst Steinicke et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2012References: 1

    The IOC’s decision to accept Sochi’s bid to host the 2014 Olympic Winter Games presented the Russian Government with an opportunity for international repositioning. The Caucasian War in August 2008, too, can be linked to this development. Going back to the very beginnings of the Soviet Republic, the Sochi region has achieved the tradition of a resort for health and recreation. However, these functions have so far just concentrated along the Easte…

  • Sotchi/Сочи 2014: Des Jeux Olympiques d’hiver entre haute montagne et littoral

    Open AccessKurt Scharr, Ernst Steinicke et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2012References: 1

    La décision du C.I.O. d’accepter que les Jeux olympiques d’hiver de 2014 aient lieu à Sotchi a offert au gouvernement russe une chance de se repositionner au niveau international ; la guerre du Caucase en août 2008 peut aussi être reliée à cette décision. Depuis le tout début de la République soviétique, la région de Sotchi a gagné une réputation de station offrant aussi bien des services thermaux que de loisirs. Cependant, ces fonctions se sont …

  • Minorités linguistiques autochtones des Alpes italiennes: Nouvelle législation – Nouvelles identifications – Nouveaux processus démographiques

    Open AccessErnst Steinicke, Judith Walder et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2011References: 1

    Les Alpes, plus précisément les Alpes italiennes, plus que toute autre région d'Europe Occidentale, sont un lieu de grande diversité ethnoculturelle : pas moins de sept minorités linguistiques autochtones y coexistent, côte à côte avec la majorité officielle correspondante. Maintenant considérées comme un héritage culturel important par les états ainsi que par les régions, une nouvelle législation offre une protection à toutes les « minorités lin…

  • Autochthonous Linguistic Minorities in the Italian Alps: New Legislation – New Identifications – New Demographic Processes

    Open AccessErnst Steinicke, Judith Walder et al.ARTICLERevue de géographie alpine2011Cited by: 7References: 1

    More than any other area in Western Europe, the Alps, especially the Italian Alps, are home to great ethno-cultural diversity: there, no less than seven autochthonous linguistic minorities coexist side by side with the respective official majority. Now being considered an important cultural heritage by the state as well as by the regions, new legislation offers protection to all ‘linguistic-historic minorities’ in Italy. Our study shows, however,…

  • I>Ghost towns in den Ostalpen: Das Phänomen der Entvölkerung im friulanischen Berggebiet (Italien)

    Open AccessPeter Čede, Ernst SteinickeARTICLEGeographica Helvetica2007

    Die vorliegende Studie geht von der These aus, dass die Entvölkerung des Berggebietes in Friaul innerhalb der gesamten Ostalpen am weitesten fortgeschritten ist. Um 1990 zählten die meisten Subregionen Nordfriauls zu jenen Gebieten Italiens, die seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg die stärksten Bevölkerungsverluste hinnehmen mussten. Ausschlaggebend dafür waren mehrere Auswanderungsschübe, deren negative Auswirkungen auf die aktuelle Bevölkerungsstruktur …

  • Amenity Migration in the U.S. Sierra Nevada

    Open AccessRoland Loeffler, Ernst SteinickeARTICLEGeographical Review2007Cited by: 26References: 12

    Since 1960 California's Sierra Nevada counties have ranked among the regions with the strongest relative population growth in the state. Reassessment of peripheral areas has been the main force driving population and settlement growth in the central Sierra Nevada of California and Nevada, termed “amenity migration” or “counterurbanization.” This study analyzes the impacts of amenity migrants—“urban refugees”—on socioeconomic conditions in high‐mo…

  • Counterurbanization and Its Socioeconomic Effects in High Mountain Areas of the Sierra Nevada (California/Nevada)

    Open AccessRoland Löffler, Ernst SteinickeARTICLEMountain Research and Development2006

    Resettlement of peripheral areas (“counterurbanization”) is driving population growth in the central Sierra Nevada of California and Nevada. The present study analyzes the impact of “urban refugees” on socio-economic conditions in rural high mountain regions (above 1800 m). From 1960 onward, the High Sierra counties have ranked among Californian high mountain regions with the heaviest relative population growth. Tourism provides the most importan…

  • Städte als Innovationszentren für eine Neubesinnung ethnischer Minderheiten: Das Beispiel der Kärntner Slowenen (Österreich)

    Open AccessErnst SteinickeARTICLEGeographica Helvetica2001

    Vorliegende Studie geht von der These aus. dass urbane Räume in der postindustriellen Phase günstige Handlungsstrukturen bieten, um den Erhalt autochthoner ethnolinguistischer Minderheiten zu fördern. Das Beispiel der slowenischen Minderheit in Kärnten soll diese Annahme veranschaulichen und erklären. Die Zensusergebnisse von 1991 weisen in Südkärnlen erstmals auf eine Abschwächung des Assimilationsprozesses hin. Besonders auffallend ist der zahl…
