This book is the first authored overview of resilience in tourism
and its relationship to the broader resilience literature. The
volume takes a multi-scaled approach to examine resilience at the
individual, organisation and destination levels, and with respect
to the wider tourism system. It covers the different approaches to
understanding resilience (the ecological and engineering
approaches) and identifies issues with their understanding and
application. The book connects issues of resilience to related key
concepts such as vulnerability, adaptation, networks, systems,
change and social capital. It is designed to be an upper level
undergraduate and postgraduate primer on resilience in a tourism
context and will be of interest to tourism researchers in planning,
development, geography, impacts, sustainability, disaster
management and environmental studies.
This book offers a critical perspective on the issue of organising
waste in cities, which has often been positioned in terms of
relatively narrow engineering, economic and physical science
approaches. It emphasises the ways in which the notion of waste,
and the narratives and discourses associated with it, have been
socially constructed with corresponding implications for waste
governance and local waste handling practices. Organising waste in
the city takes a broad and international approach to the ways in
which the issue of waste is framed, and brings together narratives
from cities as diverse as Amsterdam, Bristol, Cairo, Gothenburg,
Helsingborg and Managua. Organised into four main sections and with
an integrative introduction and conclusion, the book not only
provides new insights into the hidden stories of urban and
municipal household solid waste and waste landscapes, but also
connects concerns regarding urban waste to such issues as
globalisation, governance, urban ecology, and social, economic and
environmental justice.
Pro-poor tourism - tourism that is intended to result in increased
net benefits for poor people - is currently receiving enormous
attention from the World Tourism Organization, the UN system,
governments, industry, and NGOs and is an integral component of
many sustainable development strategies in the less developed
countries. Through a series of cases and reviews from experts in
the field this book provides one of the first assessments of the
effectiveness of pro-poor tourism as a development strategy and
tackles the issue of who benefits from tourism's potential role in
poverty reduction. This timely book therefore makes a major
contribution to the ongoing debate about tourism's role in economic
development, postcolonial politics, and North-South relations at a
time when international trade negotiations appear poised to further
open up developing countries to international tourism.
Lakes are an essential element of some of the world's most popular
tourism destinations. However, increased pressure from visitors and
the tourism industry as well as from other, sometimes competing,
land and water uses has made the sustainable development of lakes
increasingly problematic. This book represents the first attempt to
bring together some of the key elements of lake tourism within a
single volume in order to present the urgent need for an integrated
approach to lacustrine tourism systems management.The book presents
comprehensive overviews of lake tourism including branding and
marketing, visitor management and planning, historical and cultural
dimensions, and environmental quality. The volume is international
in scope with cases from Europe, North America and Oceania. The
book concludes by noting that tourism needs to be established as a
complimentary land and water use at a time when lakes and their
watersheds are facing challenges in the form of climate and
environmental change, increasing numbers of visitors as well as an
overall increase in competing demands for water.

Climate change is one of the major issues facing us today and has
been described as a threat greater than terrorism. As the world's
largest industry tourism both contributes to and will be
dramatically affected by climate change. This is the first
comprehensive book-level examination of the relationship between
tourism and climate change, of interest not only to students of
tourism but to policy makers and the industry who will have to
respond to the challenges posed.
Second homes - the cottage, the summer house, the bach - are an
important part of the tourism and leisure lifestyles of many people
in the developed world. Second homes are therefore an integral
component of tourism experiences in rural and peripheral areas.
Yet, despite their significance not only for tourism but also for
rural communities and the rural economy, relatively little research
has been undertaken on the topic until recent times. This volume
represents the first major international analysis and review of
second homes for over 25 years. It will provide a significant
resource for those interested in changing patterns of tourism and
leisure behaviour as well as the use of the countryside and
peripheral areas. The book describes the economic, social and
environmental impacts of second homes as well as their planning
implications and places such discussions within the context of
contemporary human mobility. The volume represents essential
reading for those interested in rural regional development
processes and the development of new rural leisure landscapes.
This book examines the theoretical and conceptual foundation of
effective modern intelligence collection-the strategies required to
support intelligence analysis of the modern, complex operational
environments of today's military conflicts or competitive civilian
situations such as business. Just as the old rules of conventional
warfare and intelligence analysis do not apply fully in the
21st-century environment, neither does the traditional methodology
of collecting intelligence on these elusive, adapting foes
operating as complex adaptive systems (CAS)-adversaries that excel
in today's complex contexts. Intelligence Collection: How To Plan
and Execute Intelligence Collection In Complex Environments
proposes substantive improvements in the way the U.S. national
security system collects intelligence and supports intelligence
analysis. The work draws on the groundbreaking work of a diverge
group of theorists ranging from Carl von Clausewitz and Sun Tzu to
M. Mitchell Waldrop, General David Petraeus, and Orson Scott Card,
communicating a unifying theory and ontology of thought for how
America's intelligence collection professionals must learn to
collect data as our country faces elusive, determined, and smart
adversaries in nonlinear, dynamic environments. The new ideas
presented will help the nation's intelligence collection
specialists to amass a formidable, cumulative intelligence power,
regardless of the level of war or the type of operational
environment.
Whether it's bungee jumping in Queenstown or visiting the Guinness
factory in Dublin, where we travel - and what we do when we get
there - has changed significantly in the past twenty years. This
innovative textbook explores what is possibly the most unrecognized
of international service industries, placing tourism in the context
of contemporary globalization and trade in services. It provides
new perspectives on tourism as a form of international business,
and the implications for firms, the state and individuals.Split
into four separate sections, with introductions outlining the key
themes in each, the book examines such important topics as: the
role of governance and regulation in tourism services the effects
of increased global mobility on tourism entrepreneurship how
tourism businesses are becoming internationalized why other
business sectors are increasingly interested in tourism. Case
studies are used throughout to highlight important issues, from
developments in the aviation industry to the rise of working
holidays. This book gets to the core of a crucial service industry,
and is essential reading for any researcher or student of tourism
or international business.

reading and websites * 'Issues to consider when marketing' section

of wine. Its accessible and clear-sighted approach makes it an
invaluable guide for everyone in the field.

How will the travel and tourism industry respond to the terrorist
attacks on America?The recent terrorist attacks in the United
States and their repercussions for the travel and leisure
industries have focused more attention on tourism safety and
security issues than ever before. The impact on tourism
destinations and businesses, as well as on traveler behavior, will
be significant. Recent events require further analysis not only of
how travel safety may be improved but also how security issues may
be seen in terms of tourism marketing and management so that the
industry is able to better respond to such challenges.In this, an
era of turbulent global relationships, the need for destination
marketing organizations to demonstrate that they are safe for
tourists has become increasingly important. Negative publicity,
often unrelated to on-the-ground reality, may also serve to affect
tourist perceptions.Safety and Security in Tourism: Relationships,
Management, and Marketing examines: the effects of the September
11, 2001 attacks on the tourism industry and how the industry is
responding the importance of safety as a factor in destination or
activity choice case studies of destination and business responses
to past political instability and/or attacks against tourists
safety, security and destination image the role of the media in
influencing consumer perceptions of travel safety consumer
awareness of travel advisories and their influence on behavior the
role of insurance in the travel industry consumer awareness and
acceptance of security measures in travel and tourism safety and
security as a component in destination marketing crisis and risk
management in the tourism industry cross-border security and visa
controls and their implications for tourism safety and security
measures for tourists in different sectors and in airportsTourism
has often been cited as a force for peace, yet tourism is typically
one of the first industrial casualties of war and political unrest.
This book examines tourism safety and security issues to give you a
better knowledge base from which to respond to future events.
