“…Those factors also contributed to growth in long-haul travel demand to destinations such as Europe (particularly France), the US, Australia and New Zealand (Lim, Min and McAleer, 2008). By the mid-1990s, about half of the outbound travel from Japan was to these long-haul destinations (Carlile, 1996).…”

“…Japanese overseas tourists set this pattern from early on (Carlile, 1996), and it was also adapted by long-haul tourists from other Asian countries such as China, Korea, Thailand and Indonesia (March, 2000). Mainland Chinese and Hong Kong residents have until recently on the whole preferred package tours over individual travel (Wong & Lau, 2001) even if these were not mandated anymore by the ADS system, as these provided not only value for money and convenience, but also safety through the reduction of risk (Guo, Kim, and Timothy, 2007;Mok and DeFranco, 1999;Yu and Weiler, 2001).…”

Increasing numbers of people from the emerging world regions, Asia, Latin America, Africa and the Middle East engage in tourism practices at domestic, intra-regional and long-haul international scales. In this article we deploy an innovative application of the mobilities approach, which we argue moves beyond the Eurocentrism implicit in modernist tourism studies, in a comparative analysis of tourism in and from these regions and those in the 'West'. Our analysis opens up the systematic study of tourism in emerging world regions in terms of the mobilities paradigm, and concludes: one, travel had a multiplicity of origins in societies in the emerging regions, but most did not possess an equivalent emic term to 'tourism.' Two, tourism at domestic and intraregional levels tends to be entangled with other discretionary mobilities, whereas the long-haul level is more differentiated. Three, the development of domestic discretionary travel in emerging regions can be represented by four overlapping 'mobility constellations'. Four, there are significant historical differences between the regions in their long-haul mobility constellations, although their kinetic hierarchies are all still steep. Five, forms of movement and associated practices of discretionary travellers from the emerging regions and Western countries became increasingly similar under the impact of socio-technological, economic and cultural globalisation. Six, differences between the emerging regions, particularly Asia, and the West are most salient on the emic level of representations of international travel: the specific cultural motive forces for tourism do not centre on authenticity-seeking, but are instead bound up with prestige and markers of modernity.

“…Thanks to its economic growth and prosperity in the post‐WWII period, Japan has emerged as one of the key outbound tourism nations in the last 30 years (Cooper, ). Therefore, many empirical studies of the Japanese tourism and tourists have been undertaken to assess the international travel phenomenon in terms of country's economic power (Carlile, ; Hui & Yuen, ; Kuo, Liu, & Chen, ; Lim, Min, & McAleer, ; Polunin, ).…”

This paper aims to investigate the effects of economic uncertainty on the Japanese tourists who travelled to the United States (USA) over the period 1996Q1–2015Q1. To achieve this aim, for the first time the Economic Policy Uncertainty index has been used as an independent variable in international tourism demand analysis models. The unit root and the cointegration tests have been applied to account for unknown structural breaks. Empirical findings indicate that one standard deviation increase in the Economic Policy Uncertainty index leads to a 4.7% decrease in the number of Japanese tourist arrivals to the USA in the long run.

“…Until 1964, the Japanese were not even allowed by their government to travel abroad for pleasure (Mak and White 1992;Carlile 1996). That all changed in 1964, following the Tokyo Olympics, when the ban on overseas pleasure travel was finally lifted.…”
