A critique of community-based tourism development
Community-based tourism (CBT) promotes a model for enhancing communities' social, environmental, and economic needs upheld as a post-Covid-19 revival strategy. This study aimed to critically review the model following longitudinal fieldwork in Thailand. "Reflection-in-action" methodology exposes CBT failings against sustainable development goals (SDGs). CBT falsely assumes: communities possess necessary capability for effective implementation; st…
Third-party impacts of short-term rental accommodation
Short-term rental accommodation (STRA) sharing economy platforms, such as Airbnb, give rise to externalities or negative third-party impacts in neighbourhoods. Governments worldwide continue to grapple with how to best regulate STRA platforms given such externalities, especially in the wake of COVID-19. When STRA is perceived as poorly controlled, anecdotal reports indicate that community resentment around perceived inequities and negative econom…
Developing resilience for small island tourism planning
Overlooked connections between sustainable development goals (SDG) and principles of resilience (POR) drive this case study through theoretical ‘Streams of Resilience’ thinking to expose disjuncts in gastronomy, tourism, and domestic development policy on Ly Son Island Vietnam. Grounded approach qualitative methodology supports critique of tourism developments filtered through sustainability-impact trilogy dimensions. Findings suggest that socio-…

Multiple data sources and mixed methods were used to uncover the perceptions of three key stakeholder groups: national park employees, volunteer camphosts, and park visitors. Informe…
Assessing preferences of potential visitors for nature-based experiences in protected areas
Freedom camping in Australia
Freedom camping is fuelling nationwide political debate in Australia as a rapidly expanding recreational vehicle (RV) market impresses upon regional and urban communities its strong desire to avoid traditional caravan parks and the features that they present/represent. Community leaders are being lobbied to consider the needs of all types of caravanning visitors to their communities. Conflict and positional power struggles are thus surfacing with…
The Life Cycle of Caravan Parks in Australia
The caravan park sub-sector of the Australian tourism accommodation industry provides at least half of the national tourism bed capacity, and in 2009 generated over A$1.1 billion in annual takings. However, the number of parks and park capacity is in decline nationally while both international and domestic demand for the drive-tourism experience is growing. This sets a trend towards an accommodation facilities shortage for the caravanning sector …
