Tourism Development after the Crises
This book, edited by Peter Keller and Thomas Bieger, provides a unique analysis of the recent financial crisis on world tourism and particularly the development models which contribute to reduce poverty. The volume is based on the knowledge of a network of more than 300 researches and includes experiences from Europe, Africa and Asia. It focuses on the latest economic crises as a framework for analyses and as a real life case study.
Indicator-based Strategies for Sustainable Tourism Development
As globalization advances, Alpine regions, among others, are increasingly seen as competitive entities in Switzerland. Still, tourism development is often criticized as not being sustainable. The questions arise: How can the sustainability of tourism development be monitored? What indicators can be used to identify sustainable development? How can a strategy be developed to integrate the outcomes of sustainability monitoring so that development i…

Segmenting travel situations on the basis of motivation and information‐collection by the traveller
In the study presented here, travellers from Switzerland are segmented on the basis of their information collection, with respect to their motivation structure derived in a study earlier this year. The study illustrates the important role of information in tourism. A successful strategy consists of providing convenience and of building up a trustful relation between the tourist company and the tourist. Hereby, convenience is determined by quality…
Perspektiven der schweizer bergbahnbranche — eine fallstudie für die transformation einer wichtigen touristischen teilbranche
The article is a summarised version of a prospective study for the Swiss tourism region of Valais by the Institute for Public Management and Tourism (ITD) of the University of St. Gallen which has been achieved in April 2000.

The transformation of this sector has a direct impact …
Introduction of the Euro
With the introduction of the EUR, a new time of European economy and tourism has begun
Call‐center — lösungen im incoming tourismus
The importance of comprehensive direct information and service in the services sector has increased con‐siderably in the past few years. Thanks not least to rapid developments in technology it is now possible to combine hardware and software in such a way as to develop application‐ and customer‐ specific products
Lage und zukunftsperspektiven der Schweizerischen hotellerie
Reflecting on new demand trends, such as “more quality, less money” and “event” oriented products, the author comes to the conclusion that the Swiss hotel sector needs to rethink its strategy and to “reenineer” its services, procedures and performances. He proposes a model that takes customer benefits and the related chain of tourism services as its starting point
Reengineering destination marketing organisations
Like most traditional forms of tourism also alpine tourism has lost its strategic success positions due to the ongoing globalisation of the tourism sector. The traditional structures in tourism marketing — based on political and institutional boundaries — have to make place to a more market oriented structure. The association of swiss tourism managers decided to follow a destination management approach that will lead to corresponding tourism stru…
Tourismusforschung
Tourismuslehre kann als interdisziplinäre angewandte Wissenschaft verstanden werden, die sich zur Abgrenzung von Forschungsobjekten und zur Erfassung der Wechselwirkungen der Systemtheorie bedient. Eine Schnittpunktwissenschaft, die nicht wie die klassischen Wissenschaftsdisziplinen eine eigene Modellwelt und eigene Paradigmen weiter zu entwickeln hat, sollte sich stark nach den Bedürfnissen der Praxis ausrichten. Wichtige Forschungsdefizite best…
Die wirtschaftlichen Effekte des Tourismus als politische Argumentationshilfe — Berechnungsmethoden und Resultate am Beispiel Luzern
Als Grundlage für politische Entscheide, die die touristische Entwicklung einer Region oder Ortschaft betreffen, werden immer häufiger Untersuchungen ber die wirtschaftlichen Effekte des Tourismus verfasst. Diese Untersuchungen vermögen die Diskussion nur zu versachlichen, wenn sie eindeutig und glaubwrdige Daten liefern (s. Abschnitt 1). Für die Untersuchung über die Stadt Luzern wurde deshalb eine eigene Systematik für die verschiedenen Formen …
