河豚文化旅游发展的思考与对策

细心品味审视现阶段新型旅游城市的发展道路以及成功的经验,现在已经不是传统的坐山吃山,靠水吃水的单一的旅游模式,而是要更好的用心讲、用心做的旅游经营的“故事”以及“特色”。在目前旅游业的发展来看显得更加的重要。以此为背景,发展当地特色,作为有着”敢为天下鲜“的河豚,应该在旅游业有如何表现?以及应该在旅游产业当中起到怎样的模式?有着怎样的定位?如何蜕变旅游开发呢?是我们目前共同思考的问题,下面就河豚文化旅游与发展中的思考以及日后的对策做出了详细的分析。     

肯尼亚：找个地方感动自己

踏上寻找之旅飞机抵达内罗毕的时候,是中午。赤道的阳光明亮而充沛。天那么蓝。阳光从湛蓝湛蓝的空中毫无遮挡地倾泻而下。有凉凉的风迎面吹过。流动的空气中散发着鲜花的芬芳。出发前和朋友们说,我要去东非,去肯尼亚旅行。很多人都惊讶得瞪大了眼睛。你居然敢去那样的地方?那蛮荒之地。那里遍地都是爱滋病。还有疟疾、黄热病。那里没有东西吃。那里的水肯定不卫生。更有朋友煞有介事地告诉我,那地方,苍蝇会钻到人的皮肤底下产卵,然后,那些幼虫就在你的皮肤里蠕动着直到会飞。

Sources of Slavery-Destinations of Slavery

Summary

This study seeks to account for differences between the UK and US in including sites of black slavery as part of their heritage tourism and museum agenda. Both countries were heavily involved in the slave trade and both currently have immigrant communities with an appreciation of their origins. However, and unlike the American situation, it is only recently that Britain has opened the contentious issue of slavery to public gaze. In this regard, attention focuses specifically on the mounting of a pioneering Slave Exhibition at Liverpool's Maritime Museum and, by interviewing its chief curator, various insights are gained as to the potential and pitfalls of such a permanent display of an inglorious past. Further interpretation is added by references to the general literature on heritage tourism, the emerging context of “thanatourism” and the framework of a Force Field model that can usefully accommodate the competing interests of rival stakeholders.     

Influence of the measurement of distance on assessment of recreation access

Residents’ recreation behavior is highly influenced by their level of access to recreation opportunities. Distance is an important component of access. The purpose of this study was to measure levels of access to public beaches in the Detroit Metropolitan Area (DMA) using four travel distances (1, 6, 10, and 20 miles) and three access measures (minimum distance, travel cost, and covering), with the intent of demonstrating the sensitivity of findings to both the distance and measure employed. Findings indicate that while public beaches are geographically accessible for a majority of the DMA population within 20 miles according to all access measures, at distances less than 20 miles level of access varies substantially with the access measure used. Future access studies should consider a range of travel distances rather than the single distance typical of most prior analyses and should also be sensitive to the differentials produced by the access measure employed.     

可持续旅游发展的价值依据比较

本文追溯了可持续旅游发展观在不同学科中的理论渊源,分析了"可持续旅游发展"的不同价值诉求,探讨了基于功利价值、正义价值或良心价值等不同价值基础之上的"可持续旅游发展".环境与发展经济学、旅游社会学、旅游人类学的部分流派的理论范式和研究方法可以为旅游发展提供现实的、可操作的指导,体现了对功利价值的追求.旅游社会学和旅游人类学的主要流派理论密切关注旅游的社会、政治及文化影响,体现了对正义价值的追求.而环境伦理和生态伦理学则更多地考虑了整个生态系统的和谐发展,体现了对良心价值的追求.     

社会学框架下的旅游学学科属性定位分析

本文在假设旅游学是一门独立学科这一前提下，借用社会学关于学科属性定位的分析框架，对旅游学的学科属性进行定位分析。从学科的认知维度来看，旅游学是一门“应用”性较强的“软”学科；从学科的组织维度来看，旅游学是一门“分野度”较高而“城市化度”较低的学科。旅游学学科的这些属性的确定。为我们解释旅游学发展现状提供了基本依据。能够使我们明确旅游学的发展阶段、发展方向以及应注意的问题，这对于旅游学学科建设具有重要意义。     

Determinants of success of restaurant crowdfunding

This study explores the determinants of restaurant crowdfunding success, inspired by success determinants found in independent restaurant literature. The results indicate that community orientation, images that show elements of the restaurant concept, and frequent communication with funders are key drivers for success. We conclude that restaurant entrepreneurs who show that their project benefits the community where they operate, provide constant updates that maintain project interest, and are responsive to funders’ comments are more likely to succeed in reward-based crowdfunding.     

Service failure of intermediary service: impact of ambiguous locus of control

The purpose of this paper is to examine the impact of ambiguous Locus of Control (LOC) on customers’ evaluations after service failures in the tourism distribution channel between intermediaries (travel agents) and suppliers (hotels). A three (Locus: ambiguity, intermediary, and supplier) × two (Severity: severe versus mild) between-subject design was employed. Findings indicate that customers’ evaluations are more negative of an intermediary (travel agent) than of a supplier (hotel) when customers do not know who is at fault. In addition, when service failure is severe, consumers who do not know who is at fault (perceiving an ambiguous LOC) are more dissatisfied with the service failure than those who know who caused the failure (perceiving a clear LOC). Furthermore, customers who served themselves (self-service; high participation) are more likely to attribute service failure to a supplier than customers who were served by an intermediary (intermediary service; low participation).
