The shift in China’s national economy from industrial manufacturing to technology and IT has placed constraints on the lives of rural-to-urban male migrant workers from the lower social strata. As the pace of out-migration in China slows, male rural returnees are harnessing self-reliant masculinities to reclaim status and heighten a sense of collective pride in and affiliation with their natal village. Centering on two ethnographic case studies of Dong ethnic minority male rural returnees in the autonomous district of Guizhou Province, the analysis in this article contributes to critique on the recent unfolding of the state-led “crisis of masculinity” to highlight the wider socioeconomic conditions that continue to deepen the inequalities and felt anxieties of male rural returnees.

Cultural heritage is the sum of material wealth and spiritual wealth left by a nation in the past. Because of its precious and fragile characteristics, cultural heritage protection and tourism development have received extensive global academic attention. However, application visualization software is still underused, and studies are needed that provide a comprehensive overview of cultural heritage tourism and prospects for future research. Therefore, this research employs the bibliometric method with CiteSpace 5.8. R2 software to visualize and analyze 805 literature items retrieved from the SSCI database between 2002 and 2022. Results show, first, scholars from China, Spain, Italy have published the most articles, and Italian scholars have had the most influence. Second, Hong Kong Polytech University, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Jinan University have had significant influence on cultural heritage tourism research. Third, Annals of Tourism Research is the most cited journal in the field. Influenced by politics, culture, and technology, sustainable development and consumer behavior have become key topics in this field over the past 21 years. Fourth, tourist satisfaction, rural development, cultural heritage management are the key research frontiers. Fifth, in future, cultural heritage tourism should pay more attention to micro-level research, using quantitative methods to integrate museums, technology, and cultural heritage into consumer research. The results offer a deeper understanding of the development and evolution of the global cultural heritage tourism field from 2002 to 2022. At the same time, our findings have provided a new perspective and direction for future research on global cultural heritage tourism among scholars.

This study focuses on four traditional earthen–wooden villages in Hunan Province, exploring the multifaceted impacts of tourism development on the quality of life from the perspectives of both residents and tourists. Utilizing structural equation modeling, this research examines how macro-level cultural resources, meso-level spatial characteristics, and micro-level traditional architecture influence the development of cultural tourism and its subsequent effects on quality of life. The findings indicate that while cultural resources and spatial characteristics positively contribute to the quality of cultural tourism development, traditional architecture presents a complex challenge. Specifically, traditional architecture negatively impacts quality of life due to maintenance demands and modernization pressures, yet it also enhances cultural tourism through its intrinsic heritage value. Spatial characteristics are identified as the most significant positive factor, indirectly enhancing both tourism quality and overall life satisfaction by enriching the cultural landscape. Additionally, the study uncovers significant differences in how residents and tourists perceive the impacts of tourism. Tourists generally seek enriching and authentic experiences, while residents are more directly affected by the socio-economic and environmental changes brought by tourism. This divergence highlights the need for balanced and targeted management strategies that address the distinct needs and perceptions of both groups at various stages of tourism development. By addressing these dynamic factors, this study offers valuable insights for policymakers and administrators aiming to balance heritage preservation with sustainable economic growth in traditional earthen–wooden villages. The research also underscores the critical role of community engagement and adaptive strategies in fostering resilient and thriving rural communities in the 21st century.
