Legal barriers to adaptive coastal management at a coastal erosion hotspot in Florianópolis, Brazil
Sustainable livelihoods from tourism in the “10 New Balis” in Indonesia
The “10 New Balis” aims to duplicate the economic effects of tourism in Bali to 10 new tourism destinations in Indonesia. Group interviews were conducted with Indonesian tourism stakeholders (N = 22) to investigate aspirations, deficits and tensions in these destinations. Findings show that human capital development in regional areas is needed to avoid tensions from top-down, elite-led development, as well as training to achieve sustainable livel…

Framing adaptive capacity through a history–futures lens: Lessons from the South East Queensland Climate Adaptation Research Initiative
Maximizing conservation evaluation utilization
Evaluation utilization in conservation management emphasizes the use of ‘appropriate’ information from the perspective of an expert provider. An alternative is to emphasize the information needs of recipients. Doing so ensures evaluation information is relevant to expected users and uses. The authors worked with an Australian conservation management agency to address barriers associated with engagement and ensuring relevance to the recipient’s sp…
Extreme Seasons and Extreme Visitation: The Case of Changbai Mountain Biosphere Reserve
Changbai Mountain Biosphere Reserve in the northeast of China was established for its biodiversity and ecological significance. Local communities traditionally used the natural resources of the Reserve area through harvesting and hunting of forest products. With Reserve declaration, this subsistence use of resources was banned, and communities were greatly affected by the regulations but moved towards gaining income from tourism. During the past …
Toward More Reflexive Use of Adaptive Management
Adaptive management is commonly identified as a way to address situations where ecological and social uncertainty exists. Two discourses are common: a focus on experimentation, and a focus on collaboration. The roles of experimental and collaborative adaptive management in contemporary practice are reviewed to identify tools for bridging the discourses. Examples include broadening the scope of contributions during the buy-in and goal-setting stag…
What Constitutes Success in Pacific Island Community Conserved Areas
In recent years, few if any community conserved areas (CCAs) in the Pacific island region have been regarded as being successful. However, as success is rarely defined, what constitutes "success" is not clear. This paper reports an investigation into the way "outsiders" perceive success in Pacific island CCAs. An exploratory survey revealed six umbrella themes of success: the locus of control; local benefits; resource aspects; management; externa…
A model of cultural change and tourism
Tourism is recognised as an agent of social and cultural change, especially for indigenous communities. In many cases, tourism has been identified as both a force for cultural enrichment or rejuvenation and the loss of cultural integrity. Description, after the effect, typifies the literature, with few attempts to be predictive of the impact tourism might have. This paper presents a model of cultural change derived inductively from interactions w…
Implications of sporadic tourism growth: Extrapolation from the case of Boracay Island, The Philippines
As a tourist destination approaches senescence, decisions may be taken to expand, rebuild or reposition the product. However, this is often destructive of the resource, particularly where the attraction stems from natural or cultural assets. This paper examines the problem of sustaining tourism in cultural and natural environments. It argues for recognition that growth is sporadic, necessitating a shift in tourism planning and management from out…
Defining Heritage Values and Significance for Improved Resource Management: An application to Australian tourism
The values and significance of heritage resources are often acknowledged but not integrated into the management process. This paper presents a framework for explicitly identifying these resource qualities and applying them to site management. It defines values in terms of a resource's intrinsic (objectively measurable) and extrinsic (largely subjectively measurable) qualities. The derivative assessment of significance then creates direction for d…
Managing Small Heritage Sites with Interpretation and Community Involvement
In heritage site management, there is often a strong reliance on preservation, sometimes to the exclusion of contemporary use.The result is a tendency to remove heritage sites from the experience of the community who 'owns' the heritage. At the site level, heritage management does not always use the full range of available tools; largely because of the emphasis on preservation. Case studies from rural Queensland, Australia, show that even relativ…
Balancing use and preservation in cultural heritage management
The management of cultural heritage places is compared with natural area management. Differences stem from the disciplines of the managers, and that cultural heritage resources are non‐renewable. In the conservation of cultural resources there is a strong reliance on preservation, and the exclusion of activities which may reduce heritage value. This results in a tendency to remove heritage sites and items from the experience of the community whic…
