“…Within this emergent literature, attitudes to cruise tourism appear to be heterogeneous. Studies have found that not all communities are welcoming of cruise passengers (Brida, Riaño, & Zapata, 2011;Hritz & Cecil, 2008) and, even in those destination communities where cruise tourism is welcomed and supported, residents have articulated a variety of both positive and negative views in the context of a rapid increase in cruise ship arrivals (Stewart, Dawson, & Draper, 2011). Although few studies have specifically addressed the impact of cruise ships on small communities, there is a large body of literature regarding the relationship between residents and visitors, and how tourism impacts upon local communities.…”

This article reports on a study of community attitudes to cruise tourism in Akaroa, New Zealand. An important dimension of this study is the significant rate of growth in cruise arrivals over a short period of time as the result of the 2010/11 Canterbury earthquakes. Data were collected via a postal survey of the Akaroa community, and yielded a response rate of 56.6% (n = 316). The results indicate that despite the recent growth in arrivals, the Akaroa community holds a largely favorable opinion of cruise tourism. Importantly, the impacts identified by respondents were more closely aligned to threats to their identity as a destination, rather than problems with tourism, per se.

“…From an empirical perspective, residents' attitude and perception towards cruise tourism have been investigated in the last decade (Gibson and Bentley 2006;Hritz and Cecil 2008;Diedrich 2010;Brida et al 2011). Gibson and Bentley (2006) examine residents' perceived social impacts associated with increased levels of cruise tourism in Falmouth in Cornwall (South West of England).…”

“…Through a descriptive analysis, the results show a predominantly positive view of cruise tourism in the city. In an exploratory qualitative analysis in Key West (Florida), Hritz and Cecil (2008) interviewed seven stakeholders (i.e. business owners, city officials, individuals representing specialised markets, representatives of tourist attractions, and entrepreneurs) about their perception on cruise tourism.…”

Terms of use: Documents in Manuela Pulina University of Sassari and CRENoSAbstract This paper investigates residents' preferences towards cruise tourism investment in their home port. The research uses data collected during the peak cruise season in 2011 at Messina, a port of call in Sicily, Italy. A generalized ordered logit analysis is run to analyse what factors influence the residents' preferences towards investment in cruise tourism. Positive and negative externalities produced by this economic activity, as well as socio-demographic and economic determinants are taken into account. Overall, the resource investment choice of residents in Messina was dependent upon: their income dependency on the cruise activity, their own personal cruise experience, family size, the expected increase in welfare (i.e. increase in public and private investment), whether they are affected by urban and rural gentrification and the value placed on community life style and heritage conservation. Nevertheless, residents would tend to decrease investments in cruise activity if they are female, retired or perceive the environment to be deteriorating. Implications for policy makers are drawn from the empirical findings.Paper submitted to the special issue Tourism Externalities JEL C25; D62; L83 Keywords Cruise port of call; positive and negative externalities; residents' support; generalized ordered logit

“…Panamá, Libéria, Cingapura são países costeiros com muitos registros navais devido às facilidades burocráticas empresariais. Segundo Cherchiello (2014), essa prática está presente no setor desde a década de 1950, quando já era crescente o número de navios com registros de bandeiras em países como a Libéria e o Panamá. Tal estratégia, ao mesmo tempo em que minimiza os custos das armadoras de cruzeiros e tornam seu produto mais competitivo para o consumidor final, deflagra algumas das questões mais críticas do setor, no que se refere aos impactos sociais e aos aspectos éticos da atividade.…”

“…London & Lohmann (2014) afirmam que a origem da proposta pesará diretamente na relação entre os destinos e as armadoras, encontrando-se atrelado diretamente ao interesse inicial e a responsabilidade sobre a construção e investimento em terminais marítimos de cruzeiros. (London & Lohmann, 2014); (c) Interesses locais: a manutenção, construção, reestruturação ou expansão da infraestrutura de cruzeiros, como nos casos de requalificação de waterfronts, podem não conciliar interesses entre o capital privado (empresários e investidores) e a comunidade, na interlocução com os governos locais (Hritz & Cecil, 2008;Andreatta, 2010 O caso do mercado brasileiro, estudado nesta pesquisa, será aprofundado a partir do capítulo a seguir.…”
