| Tóm tắt: | How can we improve the process of tourism development and enhance its benefits
for destinations in developing, rural and/or peripheral regions? This is the broad
question that drives this book. All of the contributions in this book seek to improve
our understanding of what happens when communities turn to, or are subjected
to, tourism as a development strategy. All of these contributions seek to use that
understanding to improve the process of tourism planning and development in
ways that will lead to better outcomes for destination residents. Ideally, the focus of
this book should be on what does and/or should happen in a community before any
tourism development is initiated and several chapters provide advice and examples
for communities where little or no tourism exists. But in reality many of the decisions
about tourism development are prompted by either the increasing presence
of tourists in a community and/or a growing awareness of impacts from existing
tourism. Thus, much of the material presented in this book is based on studies of
communities that have some, although often low, levels of tourism development.
Regardless of the level of existing development, a common thread through
all the contributions to this book is that of the challenges faced by rural, remote
and/or peripheral regions where development options are limited and where community
capacity is often constrained. The book includes cases and examples from
remote areas in Australia, including indigenous communities (Chapters 2 and 4),
regional destinations in Asia (Chapter 5), emerging destinations in Africa (Chapters
6 and 9), remote areas of South America (Chapter 8), countries in the South Pacific
(Chapter 4) and less-developed tourism destinations and sectors in the USA and
Australia (Chapters 10 and 11). Although much of the evidence presented in this
book is from peripheral and rural regions many of the lessons are likely to apply to
any emerging destination or established destination where tourism development is
seen as problematic in terms of its impacts on local resident communities. |
