海陵岛旅游的社会文化影响研究

本文选择广东海陵岛闸坡镇和海陵镇两镇,通过比较研究来探讨旅游业发展对于其社会文化的影响.研究发现旅游比较成熟的闸坡镇的社会文化环境在旅游业发展的冲击下已经发生了明显的变迁:居民生活的环境不断改善、基础设施不断完善,更重要的是社区居民的思想意识、文明水平、普通话水平、思想开放度等都明显提高.与此同时也导致了赌博、抢劫、卖淫等犯罪现象的增多.海陵镇由于较少涉足旅游业,还没有对当地社会文化产生太大的影响,社区居民对于影响的感知也很少,但是由于受经济利益和社会收益提高的吸引,当地居民表现出对参与旅游业很浓厚的兴趣.

A Study on the Social-Cultural Impact of Tourism in Hailing Island

The paper, choosing Zhapo Town and Hailing Town in Hailing Island, Guangdong Province as a case study, discusses the impact of developing tourism industry on their social-culture through comparative study. The study finds out that the social-cuhural environment has changed distinctly in Zhapo Town where tourism is relatively mature. The living environment of its residents, such as sanitation and infrasturcture, is being constantly improved. What is more important, their ideology, ethics, mandarln-speaking level and ideas of opening to the outside world have been distinctly improved. But at the same time, tourism has resulted in more crimes such as gambling, robbery and prostitution. While in Hailing Town, the impact of tourism on its social-cultural environment is small because the residents are less involved in tourism industry. Its residents are less perceptive of the impact of tourism. However, the local residents have shown profound interest in the participation of tourism industry because of the attraction of economic and soical benefits.
