Early community recommendations for sustainable mega-events
Recommendations are a high form of community consultation, but rarely solicited in surveys of resident attitudes despite their potential to better inform planning and foster stronger event loyalty in an era of mega-event crisis. This paper innovates by identifying and structuring open-ended recommendations for the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games from host region residents 10 years prior to that mega-event. From an online survey of 897 respondents, 94…
The Index of Economic Disparity
Territorial inequalities have long been a subject of study and concern in Canada. In the face of large structural changes such as industrial shifts and the decarbonization of our economies, there is an urgency to understand such inequalities and design effective policy interventions for those places facing persistent economic decline. This paper shares a novel composite index that measures economic disparity across Canadian Census Subdivisions (C…
Profile
This profile offers an analysis of Extinction Rebellion (XR) from the vantage point of vanguardism. Vanguardism is a Leninist approach that marshals universal(isable) grievances to mobilise mass-constituencies. XR is used as a conduit through which to raise awareness of vanguardism's environmental applications. XR is introduced before a theoretical framework for understanding vanguardism is offered. The article then discusses XR's politics, befor…

A social identity perspective on dark tourism impacts
Pragmatic engagement with the wicked tourism problem of climate change through ‘soft’ transformative governance
Project Kraken
Project Kraken, an effort to combat terrorism and crime on the UK water network, is a valuable case that propels knowledge of surveillance. Whilst similar initiatives universalize surveillance participation, Kraken particularises it, occupying specific spaces and recruiting a delimited (maritime) community. Research observed, on one hand, Kraken’s spatial liminality, given its occupation of the land/water threshold, characterized by ‘edges’ throu…
Are we really progressing sustainable tourism research? A bibliometric analysis
Periodic assessment of the ‘state of play’ in research outputs is an essential process for gauging academic progress and latent trends within a field of study. Bibliometric analysis of 839 sustainable tourism-related papers over a thirty-year period (1987–2017), extracted from a selection of the top ranked tourism journals confirmed a lack of reticulation and integration among individual contributions, in part due to an exponential increase in ou…
A core/periphery perspective on mega-event sustainability
Academic entrepreneurship
Academics are becoming accustomed to growing demands on ‘performance’ as universities place increasing emphasis on quantifiable research outputs. Despite the rapid ascendancy of bibliometrics, limited empirical research has considered the definitions of “research performance” employed by institutions, and subsequent academic responses. Drawing on exploratory data collected from 58 university-based colleagues in 23 countries, supplemented with the…
Cultivating the Chinese market through destination loyalty
Market diversification, one critical means by which tourism-dependent small island states can maintain sector resilience and destination life cycle stability, requires understanding of the destination loyalty of strategic new inbound markets such as China. An online survey of 1260 Chinese adults with previous travel experience to the Maldives identified positive proclivities with respect to revisitation and recommendation intentions as well as ag…
Spatiality and World Politics
Space has always animated world politics, but three spatial orientations are striking. First, the Westphalian orientation deems space a sovereign power container. Second, the scalar takes recourse to the local, regional, national, and global spaces in which world politics is played out. Third, the relational deems space a (re)produced, sociohistorically contingent phenomenon that changes according to the humans occupying it and the thought, power…
Beyond certification
Sustainable tourism quality control tools (ST-QCTs) are voluntary mechanisms essential for translating sustainable tourism concepts into practice. Recent scholarship, synthesizing the extant literature, revealed a complex ‘multiverse’ of 15 ST-QCT types and seven critical variability parameters. Our empirical investigation of this multiverse in the diversified, year-round destination of Park City, USA, involving 27 semi-structured interviews with…
Social Security Disability Benefits
Using new data from the 2014 Survey of Income and Program Participation, I estimate that about 24 million individuals between the ages of 18 and 66 years have applied for Social Security disability benefits at some point in their lives. This population is about evenly divided among those who have ever received benefits from the program (beneficiaries) and those who have been denied. Those who have been denied benefits have only somewhat more favo…
Facilitating sustainable tourism by endogenization
The American Journalist in the 1990s
Who are U.S. journalists? What are their backgrounds and educational experiences? Why did they choose journalism as an occupation? What do they think about their work? What are their professional and ethical values? What kinds of work do they consider their best? Do men differ from women on these questions? Do ethnic and racial minorities differ from the majority? Do journalists working for different print and broadcast news media differ? This bo…
Wakhan
Wakhan, northeast Afghanistan’s peripheral panhandle, is situated between Afghanistan’s borders with Tajikistan, China and Pakistan. Once subject of Great Game rivalry, it requires multiagency fieldwork to better understand its geopolitical vulnerabilities. Existing accounts of Wakhan are deemed inadequate and inappropriate, exceptionalising its wildness and wilderness, and drawing (in)civility distinctions that legitimise a near-divine right to …

Dark Tourism, Emotions, and Postexperience Visitor Effects in a Sensitive Geopolitical Context
Engaging the neglected intersection between dark tourism, the visitor postexperience and geopolitics, this research reports the findings from a survey of 1,082 domestic visitors to Lushun Prison Museum in Dalian, China, a Japanese-era incarceration and punishment site that projects hegemonic anti-Japanese social representations. Most respondents reported strong emotional reactions and elevated patriotism along with worsened attitudes toward Japan…
Creative periphery syndrome? Opportunities for sustainable tourism innovation in Timor-Leste, an early stage destination
The lack of tourism development in Timor-Leste can be situated as an opportunity to build ‘from scratch’ an innovative and sustainable tourism sector that capitalises on the advantages of peripherality, including amenability to peak experiences, tourism centrality, opportunistic innovation, optimal autonomy and cultural/natural distinctiveness. As such, peripherality is positioned as a negotiable and negotiated construct. A resultant spatial fram…

Arctic tourism experiences
This book aims to better understand the production and consumption of visitor experiences in the Arctic region as a rapidly changing tourist destination. This knowledge will contribute to a balanced triple bottom line (TBL) sustainability approach in Arctic tourism. Part 1 (chapters 1-6) investigates the depth and dimensions of tourist experiences in the Arctic. The chapters examine the essence of diverse peak experiences and delve into the facto…

Revisiting the Protest Paradigm
The emergence of a national “Tea Party” movement in the United States stimulated much media commentary regarding the movement’s origins, goals, participants, and even temperament. Unlike political movements of the recent past, the Tea Party stands starkly to the right. This study examines nightly cable news coverage of this movement by using key frames associated with the “protest paradigm”—the tendency for media to marginalize movements by drawi…
Individual, Organizational, and Societal Influences on Media Role Perceptions
This article reports a secondary analysis comparing media role perceptions among journalists in China, Taiwan, and the United States, based on three recent nationwide surveys in these societies. By comparing the goodness-of-fit of a series of loglinear models, we have found that the societal factor has the strongest impact on journalists' views about media roles, the organizational factor has a significant but weak impact, and the individual fact…

Issue Salience and Public Opinion
Recent studies have suggested that agenda-setting may influence not only what we think about, but also what we think. This study examines the correlations between the salience of one issue (the federal budget deficit) and public knowledge, opinion, and behavior, using fall 1988 survey data. It finds statistically significant correlations between issue salience and knowledge about the deficit issue, strength and direction of opinion regarding one …
Tv News and U.S. Public Opinion About Foreign Countries
This article assesses the potential for US news coverage of foreign affairs to influence US public opinion about foreign countries during the latter part of 1989 and early 1990, a time of dramatic changes in central Europe. The study draws on two sources of data: content analysis of US network news and wire service coverage of nine countries (West Germany, East Germany, the Soviet Union, Hungary, Poland, Great Britain, France, Japan, and Israel) …
Searching for a Frame
How are the news media framing nanoscale science and technology? Primary concerns in the literature have been how news media weigh risks and benefits and how they classify nano with respect to news categories such as business, culture, discovery, or medicine. The authors contribute a new perspective by focusing on issue frames involving how stories imply responsibility for societal outcomes from technology. The authors develop four issue frames f…
Through their Eyes
This study, based on a mail survey conducted in early 2000, investigates the professional norms and values, personal backgrounds, daily routines and work-related problems of foreign correspondents working in the United States. The analysis assumes that the correspondents' professional values are related to what is reported about the United States around the world - and that this news coverage matters in terms of world public opinion and policies.…
Asian ecotourism
Three main regions dominate the Asian ecotourism sector. The rainforest and reef region occurs mainly in Thailand and Malaysia and is closely linked with inbound markets and resort tourism. The mountain trekking region is an ecotourism hybrid found in the two sub-regions of northern Thailand and the Himalayas. The blossom and waterfall region is focused on Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, and involves high volumes of domestic participation and flor…

Towards Sustainable Mass Tourism
This paper contends that the adoption of practices affiliated with sustainable tourism is neither broad nor deep within the conventional mass tourism industry, and that, at least in the more developed countries, this veneer sustainability on the supply side mirrors the pervasive veneer environmentalism that characterizes the demand side of tourism. As such, it indicates a 'paradigm nudge' that will only progress into a 'paradigm shift' if the con…
Model of Urban Tourism for Small Caribbean Islands
RAPID urbanization and the emergence of tourism as the dominant regional economic activity were two significant trends during the past thirty years for the Caribbean islands. The proportion of population that was urban rose from 36.5 percent in 1960 to an estimated 57.5 percent in 1990. The urban average annual growth rate was 3 percent, far in excess of the rural rate of 0.7 percent (Hope 1989). Expansion of the tourism sector was even more dram…
Media agenda setting and elections
The article briefly reviews media agenda‐setting research findings from the past quarter century as well as findings from recent studies of the role of the "new" or nontraditional media in the 1992 U.S. presidential election. It is argued that past dominance of campaign agendas by politicians and the media is related to voter alienation, whereas evidence from the 1992 election of more grassroots agenda setting, with the help of nontraditional med…

Beyond convention
As a knowledge domain, contemporary indigenous tourism is framed in reference to cultures conventionally recognized as ‘indigenous,’ and engages this almost exclusively from a supply-side perspective. This paper reimagines indigeneity and indigenous tourism as embracing also the other 94% of global population. From a utilitarian perspective, this inclusion of ‘nonconventional indigenous people’ harbors opportunities to advance the sustainability …

The Corporation and the Shareholder
The incidents of a shareholder's interest and his relationship to the corporation depend upon the characteris tics of the corporation as well as the legal theory of such inter ests. The most common form of shareholding in this country is ownership of shares in a large corporation whose shares are widely held and actively traded, usually on a national exchange. In such companies, shares are so widely scattered that the tra ditional legal concept o…

Spatial Patterns and Problems in Contemporary Namibian Tourism
The emerging and rapidly expanding Namibian tourism sector has been influenced by core-periphery relationships at both the regional (i.e. South African dominated) and local (Namibian white elite) scale. Namibian tourism space accordingly consists of: an inner core incorporating the capital and primate city of Windhoek; an outer core, which corresponds to the White-controlled commercial lands and contains most of the formal economy and accommodati…

On-Line Democracy or On-Line Demagoguery
Over the past few years, political candidates and their parties have jumped on the bandwagon of cyberpolitics by creating Web sites to disseminate information and to take the pulse of the voters. The number of on-line polls has also increased dramatically. In surveying such polls on the Web, this article examines how they are conducted and how they are reported by the traditional news media
