Miêu tả
Tóm tắt:In an exploratory empirical study by Var and Ap (1998) about the relationship between tourism and peace, the world peace variable was associated with a high degree of uncertainty, with one-third of respondents providing a neutral response to the statement: ‘I believe that tourism promotes world peace’. The authors proposed that this uncertainty might have arisen from a definitional problem with the term ‘peace’. They further explained that many respondents may have associated peace with an ‘absence of war’ and that the concept that would be most appropriate in the context of this study is that of ‘harmony and harmonious relations’ (p. 54). Therefore, a constructive discussion of peace and tourism demands no less than a definition of peace that is less parsimonious than the ‘absence of war’.
