“…Since the tourism industry is typically closely associated with multistakeholders [113], who are regarded as an important factor in any viable tourism development [114], new conflicts between stakeholders and changes in inter-subjective relationships are unavoidable in the process of sustainable transformation and quality development of tourism [113]. As shown in Table 2, the case study [18,29,47,49,50,58,113,[115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123] is a com-monly used research method to examine stakeholder relationships in sustainable cultural heritage tourism, followed by mixed research [8,27,89,[124][125][126][127][128][129][130], interviews [6,36,131,132], modelling [17,33,133], and literature reviews [90]. Current studies on BIM-driven cultural heritage conservation and sustainable cultural heritage tourism concern the following groups of people or organisations: heritage residents, community organisations, tourists, managers (including heritage planning managers including local governments, heritage management), and industry experts (e.g., heritage conservation experts and tourism planning experts).…”

At present, incorrect or aggressive conservation efforts harm not only the building heritage, but also its cultural significance and authenticity. There is an urgent need to investigate existing studies that utilise proper methods and processes of the digital economy and technology to promote sustainable architecture and building heritage conservation and heritage tourism development and management to achieve the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs). Hence, this paper aims to explore the role of digital economy technology, i.e., building information modelling (BIM), in promoting the harmonious development of cultural architectural and building heritage conservation and sustainable cultural heritage tourism, as well as to reveal the current state of the research and hotspots in BIM-driven cultural heritage conservation for sustainable cultural heritage tourism. A mix of a macro-quantitative bibliometric method and a follow-up micro-qualitative content analysis method has been employed to highlight the significance and promise of the interdisciplinary domains of BIM, cultural heritage conservation, and sustainable cultural heritage tourism to the attainment of SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities) focused on three specific goals, i.e., enhance inclusive and sustainable urbanisation (SDG 11.3), strengthen efforts to protect and safeguard the world’s cultural and natural heritage (SDG 11.4), and reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities (SDG 11.6); and SDG 17 (partnerships) regarding four issues, i.e., stakeholder relationships, public participation, heritage conservation experts, and management. Additionally, three categories of research themes have been identified: cultural heritage conservation, heritage and tourism management, and support of emerging technology. Furthermore, the relationships between BIM and sustainable cultural heritage tourism from the last 26 years (1997 to 2022) have been revealed with visualisations of future research trends in BIM, cultural heritage conservation, and sustainable cultural heritage tourism.

“…Ben Armstrong has studied the role of state-level industrial policy in facilitating the different economic trajectories of two typical rust belt metropolitan areas in the United States (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Cleveland, Ohio), arguing that by empowering new local economic players such as universities, industrial policy can drive political change and thus achieve structural economic change [9]. Zhengyuan Zhao et al tried to use the EEG method to understand the development of industrial heritage tourism in Japan by taking Kitakyushu City as an example and believed that the participation of community residents, the application of new technologies and the strong support of the national and local governments were crucial to the creation of new paths [10]. Christa Reicher discussed the planning challenges and opportunities during the structural change of the Ruhr region in Germany in the second half of the 20th century from a historical perspective, arguing that although the development of the Ruhr region faced challenges, it could still serve as a model for many other regions with similar structures, and she expounded the efforts made by the deindustrialization and polycentric agglomeration of the Ruhr region for urban renewal [11].…”

There is a mutual causal relationship between population shrinkage and the level of regional social–economic–ecological development and their coordinated development. It is of great significance to reveal the correlation effect between population shrinkage and regional development for the adjustment and optimization of the relationship between regional population and social, economic and ecological development. Taking 142 counties in the three provinces of Northeast China as samples, the population contraction was identified and classified in different segments, and a comprehensive evaluation index system was constructed. The entropy method, coupled coordination model, grey correlation degree model, bivariate spatial autocorrelation model and other analysis methods were used. This paper measures the level of social, economic, ecological and synthetical development and the coordination degree among the three in different periods, and it analyzes the spatio-temporal correlation with population shrinkage. The obstacle degree model is used to analyze the main factors affecting the coordinated development under different population shrinkage levels. The results show that: (1) The number of counties with a shrinking population accounted for 57.04% from 2000 to 2010, showing a “Nearly half of the increase and half of the decrease” situation; from 2010 to 2020, the number of counties with population contraction type accounted for 99.3%, and the region entered a state of comprehensive contraction, and the contraction amplitude increased significantly. (2) From 2000 to 2010, the degree of population shrinkage was negatively correlated with the level of social, economic, synthetical and coordinated development but positively correlated with the level of ecological development. From 2010 to 2020, the degree of population shrinkage was still negatively correlated with the level of social, economic, synthetical and coordinated development, but it is not significantly correlated with the level of ecological development. During the study period, the correlation between population shrinkage and social development level was strong, while that between population shrinkage and ecological development level was weak. (3) During the study period, the social and economic system factors were the main obstacles in the process of coordinated development. From 2000 to 2010, the common important obstacle factors of the three types of population shrinkage level counties were the number of industrial enterprises above designated size, average night light index and gross regional product, and the common main obstacle factor was population density. From 2010 to 2020, the common important obstacle factors of the three types of population shrinking counties were the number of industrial enterprises above designated size and the per capita balance of loans from financial institutions at the end of the year, and the obstacle levels of indicators in different types of population shrinking counties are significantly different.

This paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) about industrial tourism and intends to show how this product can increase sustainability and competitiveness in operating industrial companies. It uses bibliometric analysis with data from 32 journal articles that address this topic. Through this sample of articles, we do not intend to generalize conclusions but rather to concretely identify factors of sustainability and competitiveness based on a set of scientific studies that met a very specific set of criteria. Industrial tourism is categorized as a form of tourism encompassing excursions to industrial locations spanning the spectrum of contemporary, historical, or prospective significance. This encompasses venues that have ceased their industrial operations, presently functioning industrial enterprises, and forthcoming industrial establishments. Additionally, it involves visits to other destinations with an industrial theme, such as industrial technology hubs, museums, industrial tourist routes, educational institutions with industrial programs, laboratories, and analogous venues. The focus of this article is to analyze the literature on industrial tourism from the point of view of active industrial companies, the so-called “living industry”, to identify how this type of tourism can contribute to enhancing these companies. Industrial tourism allows industrial companies to achieve environmental, social, and economic benefits and can be seen as a marketing tool and a promoter of innovation within companies.
