“…Tippelt and Kupferschmitt (2015) predict that, due to new technological innovations in communication, more and more classic Internet profile pages will be replaced by direct, immediate form of communication and say that according to their research 80% of young people aged 14 to 29 use mostly daily Instant Messenger WhatsApp, while Facebook is used by 71% of respondents in this age category at a lower frequency (Tippelt, Kupferschmitt, 2015). Paris et al (2015) add that communications technology, mobile use, the internet environment and the creation of virtual communities have transformed the shape of tourism and travel (Strielkowski, 2016;Abrhám, Wang, 2017;or Mitsche, Strielkowski, 2017). Social media is an integral part of the online tourism sector and provide stakeholders with a wide range of opportunities to communicate and exchange information (Canavan, 2017;Sotiriadis, van Zyl, 2013).…”

Digital Application of Intangible Cultural Heritage from the Perspective of Cultural Ecology

“…At this point, it is particularly important to apply cultural ecology theory to the safeguarding of intangible cultural heritage: that is, appropriate safeguarding and transmission measures need to be taken in full consideration of the social environment in which the ICH is located, including the political, cultural and information environment. Current research related to cultural ecology theory in the field of tourism mainly involves intangible cultural heritage conservation and influencing factors research (Hu, Wang, & Son g, 2020;Ren, 2015); tourism experience and satisfaction (Prad a-Trigo et al, 2018;Taheri et al, 2019;Xua et al, 2019), integration and development mechanism (Liu et al, 2018;Tian, 2017;Wang et al, 2017;Zhang, 2018), ICH distribution pattern (Jiang et al, 2019;Zhang et al, 2017), tourism service innovation (Mitsche & Strielkowski, 2016), etc. Most of the above studies are at the level of theory and recommendations and do not provide practical solutions for application.…”

“…As society enters the information age, the digitalization of ICH becomes a new kind of survival state, and maintains its cultural ecosystem together with its traditional survival state. However, there is limited research on the digitalization of cultural heritage based on cultural ecology theory at present (Jiang, Yang, Zhang, & Su, 2019;Liu, Li, & Destech Publicat, 2018;Mitsche & Strielkowski, 2016;Prada -Trigo, Lopez-Guzman, Pesantez, & Perez-Galvez, 2018;Taher i, Gannon, & Kesgin, 2019;Tian, 2017;Wang, Liu, & Liu, 20 17;Xua, Zhang, Lu, & Zha, 2019;Zhang, 2018;Zhang, Wen, Liu, & Zhu, 2017). Actually, ontology technology can clarify the knowledge structure system in a certain field, which is suitable for the reuse and sharing of knowledge.…”

Sustainable tourism in the digital age: Institutional and economic implications

“…Dark tourism has its roots in the days when Thomas Cook took visitors to hang out. The growth of technology and interpersonal communication has led to a faster growth in this area of tourism (Strielkowski, Kasl Kollmannová, 2014;Mitsche, Strielkowski, 2016;Tussyadiah, 2020). This phenomenon can be seen as a contributing factor, but information and publicity contribute significantly to this objective (Korneeva et al, 2021), so do the new technologies, such as, for example, 5G networks (Strielkowski et al, 2021b).…”
