Tourism and Crime

Tourism and Poverty Alleviation
The World Tourism Organization (WTO) asserts tourism as a vehicle for economic development and poverty alleviation (EDPA) in developing countries. Among EDPA strategies, WTO highlights small enterprise development, stressing government support in such development. Tourism in Kenya is foreign owned, so economic benefits leak from the local economy. It emphasizes safari/coastal products and exploits the southern and coastal regions in an anachronis…

Tourism and Social Inclusion
A realist agenda for tourist studies, or why destination areas really rise and fall in popularity
This article proposes a (critical) realist agenda for tourist studies, centred around the question, ‘What makes tourism possible?’. In asserting realism as the philosophy of social science most likely to advance tourism theory, it offers a critique of prevailing epistemologies, notably positivism and constructivism (and critical theory), with a view to provoking engagement by the tourism research community with ontological and epistemological arg…
An Autoethnographic Narrative on Tourism Research Epistemologies
An autoethnography of getting “to know” tourism through social scientific inquiry is depicted through a narrative account of a career journey that interweaves the personal, professional and intellectual. The paper is structured around three questions that provide the conventional points of departure commonly found in tourism research and the incumbent epistemological, ontological and methodological journeys made by researchers. Claims about the u…
A survey of doctoral theses accepted by universities in the UK and Ireland for studies related to tourism, 1990-1999
The Index of Theses provided the single source for multiple searches utilizing the following key words: ‘holiday’, ‘holidaymaker’, ‘holidays’, ‘tourism’, ‘tourist’, ‘tourists’, ‘travel’, ‘visitor’ and ‘visitors’. A refined list of 149 doctoral theses accepted by universities in the UK and Ireland between 1990 and 1999 is reported. Results of the survey are reported for awarding university and year of acceptance, subject categories, location of fi…
Social scientific ways of knowing hospitality
The epistemology of a set of tourism studies
The assumptions that underlie social science research in tourism are seldom made explicit. The aims of this article are twofold. First, the epistemic question in tourism is opened for closer examination as a means of developing the self-understanding of the grounds of knowledge amongst members of the tourism research community. This is addressed by a detailed epistemological reading of a set of five PhD studies, in terms of their epistemological …
