Overtourism as Urban Overdevelopment: Social Representations and Adaptive Governance in Bali
While numerous studies examine overtourism's mechanisms and impacts, research on how overtourism is perceived and managed within political governance frameworks remains scarce. Using a case study of Bali, Indonesia, this study examines how overtourism is socially and politically constructed through stakeholder interpretations and identifies adaptive strategies to address this narrative. The study employed data triangulation through three key rese…
Macau, Bali and the Malay World: A Gastronomic Perspective
Macau’s location on the South China Sea suggests that any syncretic activity would have been of Sinitic-Portuguese variety. However, the situation is rather more nuanced, as the culture of the Macanese people, who consider themselves the ‘sons of the land’, reflects Portuguese colonial activity across the Indian Ocean and especially Malacca. Links between Macau and the ‘Malay World’ are deep and complex, and this paper approaches this issue throu…
Globalisation, crafts, and tourism microentrepreneurship in the South Pacific: Economic and sociocultural dimensions
This research assesses the economic and sociocultural dimensions of the handicraft and souvenir sector from the perspectives of predominantly female market vendors and microbusinesses in the South Pacific region. It focuses on two countries, the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu, which vary in their levels of tourism development, tourist characteristics, and available research on tourism impacts. Handicraft and souvenir businesses offer economic opport…

Tourism, Development and Terrorism in Bali
This book investigates tourism as a form of globalization within the context of the island of Bali, which has been voted the world's top island destination for the third time running by American travellers. The volume covers the onset of the Asian Crisis, the largest stock-market crash since the Great Depression. The authors chart the turbulence that has afflicted the island at a time of market uncertainty and global political strife and analyze …
A study of how LGBTQ tourists’ perceptions of residents’ feelings about them affect their revisit intentions: An Emotional Solidarity Perspective
This study examined how LGBTQ tourists' perceptions of residents' feelings about them affect their travel satisfaction and intention to revisit a destination. This study applied the theory of emotional solidarity to measure Chinese LGBTQ tourists' perceptions of Vietnamese residents in their welcoming nature, emotional closeness, and sympathetic understanding of the LGBTQ community. A survey of 217 Chinese LGBTQ tourists in Vietnam was conducted …
How gaming tourism affects tourism development through word-of-mouth communication regarding a destination: Applying the integrated satisfaction theory
This study applies the concept of integrated satisfaction to investigate the effects of satisfaction with gaming and non-gaming experience on word-of-mouth communication regarding gaming destination. A survey in Macau (n = 298) indicates that integrated satisfaction has a partial mediating effect on the relationship between non-gaming satisfaction and word-of-mouth, and integrated satisfaction has a moderating and partial mediating effect on the …

Mental mapping and heritage visitors’ spatial perceptions
Visitors’ activities tend to be spatially oriented in destinations. Mental mapping is a useful method for revealing how visitors spatially perceive tourism destinations. However, studies of this kind are under-researched in the tourism field. Therefore, this study investigates the ways in which visitors spatially perceive the World Heritage Sites (WHSs) of Macau through the use of mental maps drawn by a sample of 400 respondents. Comparisons of t…

Data were collected from 405 paid admission visitors, with a quota and systematic sampling, from two stages of pre- and post-visit corresponding with two questionnaires. The results demonstrate…

Walter Spies and Dresden: The Early Formative Years of Bali's Renowned Artist, Author and Tourism Icon
Book synopsis: Walter Spies is famed as a multi-talented artist who came to live in Bali and who was exceptionally well suited to absorb and embrace the outlook and worldview of the Indonesians he lived with. Through synthesising original and secondary sources in Europe and in Indonesia, this paper explores why he was so responsive to the culture that he encountered there. It investigates Walter Spies' early and formative years in Germany as a hi…
The Bali bombs and the tourism development cycle
This paper analyses the impact of the Bali bombings on international visitor arrivals in Bali and compares this crisis with previous crises with reference to Butler’s hypothetical tourism area life cycle. The paper demonstrates that the Bali bombings had by far the greatest impact on international tourism visitation than any other crisis in the island’s history. Such was the severity of the decline in Bali that both national and local measures we…

Zanzibar Stone Town Joins the Imagined Community of World Heritage Sites
In 2000, Zanzibar Stone Town was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List after a long campaign whose start date may be taken as 1988. In view of the difficulties, one might ask why places such as Zanzibar should undertake such initiatives. Without recognition from UNESCO the Stone Town would be under pressure to approve developments that would change the character of this historic centre, and could make it difficult to develop tourism, but this is …

Discourses with the past: Tourism and heritage in South-East Asia
This special issue is intended to explore in some empirical detail the relationships between culture (including ethnicity) nature, tourism, development, and political action, and in this connection to focus specifically on what is widely called ‘heritage’ and its conceptualization and representation in South-East Asia. Heritage is both a narrow concept, literally ‘what is or may be inherited’ (Little Oxford English Dictionary, 1996: 294), and a b…

Inter-Ethnic Relations and Tourism in Bima, Sumbawa
Islam is a universalistic creed that transcends ethnic and national boundaries. Muslims share a broadly based common heritage and identify with the wider Islamic community. The accession of Sultan Abdul Kahir in the seventeenth century marks the beginning of the Islamization of Bima, and Makasar and Malay influences are readily detectable. The court facilitated the entry of this world religion, though it was never cut off from its less Islamic hi…

Tourism and ethnicity: Situational Perspectives
Ethnicity permeates many aspects of tourism, but remains poorly understood in this context. Ethnicity is also a problematic concept because of its variability and the complexity of its interrelation with social structure. Anthropological perspectives show that ethnicity is flexible and negotiated, and this paper draws attention to latent ethnicity and the dynamic character of responses to tourism. The strategies used by peoples in tourist destina…
