Heritage protection and tourism development priorities in Hangzhou, China: A political economy and governance perspective

Management Challenges at Film-Induced Tourism Heritage Attractions

“…A close relationship between tourism and heritage is one of the complexities of management at various international HVAs. Such a complex relation may result in a wide range of concerns such as exploitation of facilities rather than the preservation and conservation of heritage sites (Ahmad 2013;Garrod & Fyall, 2000;Ho & McKercher, 2004;Wang & Bramwell, 2012). Differing stakeholders' views may be one of the factors leading to the conflict (Aas Ladkin & Fletcher, 2005;Imran, Alam & Beaumont, 2014;Leask, 2010;Wilkes & Richards, 2008).…”

“…However, although tourism development raises heritage management concerns, it can also be seen as an important justification of, and basis for, the preservation of heritage resources (Hall, 2001;Prideaux & Kininmont, 1999;Fyall & Rakić, 2006;Rakić, 2008;Wang & Bramwell, 2012;Zhang et al, 2015). Managers' lack of understanding 5 of this relationship between tourism and heritage, in instances in which this occurs, can represent a significant problem in that heritage managers might not realize that there is a need to both protect the actual heritage site and operate as a visitor attraction (Croft, 1994;Darlow et al, 2012).…”

In order to avoid conflicts and achieve balance, the relationship between tourism, heritage conservation and stakeholders should be based on maturity, knowledge and willingness to support heritage resources (Wang & Bramwell, 2012).…”

Politics and sustainable tourism: The case of Cyprus

“…Yet, the important contribution of tourism to economic development and its hegemonic value implies that tourism is inextricably linked to politics (Hall, 2010;Henderson, 2002). Studies linking tourism and politics have foregrounded specific perspectives such as environmental politics (Backstrand, Khan, Kronsell, & Lovbrand, 2010;Bulkeley & Betsill, 2005;Duffy, 2006;Erkus-Ozturk & Eraydin, 2010;Paterson, Humphreys, & Pettiford, 2003) and heritage politics (Dahles, 2002;Harrison & Hitchcock, 2005;Reinfeld, 2003;Rkhter, 2004;Wang & Bramwell, 2012) providing case studies of the varying contexts in which tourism development occurs. The political intervention of tourism as an agent of change at the global, regional and local scale has also attracted considerable literature (Burns & Novelli, 2006;Chang & Huang, 2004;Duffy & Moore, 2011;Teo & Li, 2003;Woods, 2011;Zhu, 2012).…”

The Governance System of Rural Tourism in the Guanentá Province, Santander: Cultural and Political Transformations

“…They operate under a strategy attributable to growing and changing interdependencies and chains of social interaction, which are continually multiplying due to the diversity, complexity, and dynamism of relations among public and private actors. These dynamics often play a role in the management of rural tourism (Kooiman et al, 2008;Wang & Bramwell, 2012).…”
