The management of tourism flows in cities to the benefit of visitors and residents alike is a fundamental issue for the tourism sector. It is critical to understand residents' attitude towards tourism to ensure the development of successful sustainable tourism strategies. This report analyzes the perception of residents towards tourism in eight European cities - Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Copenhagen, Lisbon, Munich, Salzburg and Tallinn - and proposes 11 strategies and 68 measures to help understand and manage visitor's growth in urban destinations. The implementation of the policy recommendations proposed in this report can advance inclusive and sustainable urban tourism that can contribute to the New Urban Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.

*** WINNER OF THE 2021 CWA CRIME IN TRANSLATION DAGGER *** **LONGLISTED FOR THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD 2022** *LONGLISTED FOR THE 2021 COMEDY WOMEN IN PRINT PRIZE* Yona has been stuck behind a desk for years working as a programming coordinator for Jungle, a travel company specialising in package holidays to destinations ravaged by disaster. When a senior colleague touches her inappropriately she tries to complain, and in an attempt to bury her allegations, the company make her an attractive proposition: a free ticket for one of their most sought-after trips, to the desert island of Mui. She accepts the offer and travels to the remote island, where the major attraction is a supposedly-dramatic sinkhole. When the customers who've paid a premium for the trip begin to get frustrated, Yona realises that the company has dangerous plans to fabricate an environmental catastrophe to make the trip more interesting, but when she tries to raise the alarm, she discovers she has put her own life in danger.

Inhaltsangabe:Problemstellung: Am 26. Dezember 2004 um 8 Uhr morgens Ortszeit ereignete sich im Indischen Ozean vor der Küste Sumatras das weltweit schwerste Erdbeben in den letzten vierzig Jahren. Mit einer Stärke von 9,1 bis 9,3 auf der Richterskala bebte der Ozean und löste dadurch einen Tsunami aus. Dieser erschütterte die Küsten Asiens und breitete sich im gesamten Indischen Ozean aus. In den vier hauptsächlich überfluteten Ländern Indonesien, Thailand, Sri Lanka und Indien riss die Flutwelle an die 300.000 Menschen in den Tod. Unter den Todesopfern waren auch etwa 3.500 Touristen, vor allem in Thailand. Am meisten betroffen waren dort die Provinzen Phuket, Krabi und Phang Nga. Unmittelbar nach der Katastrophe lief eine der weltweit größten Spendenaktionen an. Etwa 6.244.282.835 Milliarden US Dollar an internationalen Spendengeldern sind bis Ende 2005 in die Krisengebiete geflossen. Speziell die Destination Thailand erhielt 181.052.202 Millionen US Dollar an humanitärer Hilfe. Seit 1982 ist der Fremdenverkehr die wichtigste Devisenquelle in Thailand und der Tourismus-Sektor der zweitgrößte Wirtschaftszweig des Landes. Nach der Flutkatastrophe hat das Land jedoch erhebliche Nachfrageeinbrüche erleiden müssen. Die thailändische Tourismusbehörde (TAT) sprach gar von einem ́zweiten Tsunami`, einer Wirtschaftskrise, unter der Thailand infolge ausbleibender Touristenankünfte leiden könnte. Durch die finanzielle Unterstützung der internationalen Hilfsorganisationen erhält Thailand die einmalige Chance, Veränderungen in der Struktur und der Vermarktung des Tourismus vorzunehmen. Abwasser- und Müllprobleme durch Massentourismus, Wassermangel, Abwasserabflussschwierigkeiten und ökologische Fehlentwicklungen aus der Vergangenheit könnten nun behoben werden. In Konzepten, Präsentationen und Diskussionen wird von einer neuen Ausrichtung des Tourismus gesprochen. Die Destination Thailand soll umwelt-, sozial- und wirtschaftsverträglicher werden. Sind diese Strategien auch wirklich umsetzbar? Wird in Thailand diese Krise als Chance angesehen und für ein Umdenken genutzt? Das Land soll auch nach der Katastrophe die Touristen anziehen und zum Wiederkehren bewegen. Die vorliegende Arbeit soll die einzelnen Strategiewechsel in Bezug auf den Tourismus für die im Süden Thailands liegenden Regionen Phuket, Krabi und Phang Nga jeweils vor und nach der Tsunami Katastrophe untersuchen. Die Ausrichtung und Vermarktung des Tourismus in den jeweiligen Gebieten [...]

Today human ecology has split into many different sub-disciplines such as historical ecology, political ecology or the New Ecological Anthropology. The latter in particular has criticised the predominance of the Western view on different ecosystems, arguing that culture-specific world views and human-environment interactions have been largely neglected. However, these different perspectives only tackle specific facets of a local and global hyper-complex reality. In bringing together a variety of views and theoretical approaches , these especially commissioned essays prove that an interdisciplinary collaboration and understanding of the extreme complexity of the human-environment interface(s) is possible.

The management of World Heritage Cities and sites is a challenging task. Getting visitor flows and the enormous traffic under control and implementing urban development projects in ways that preserve the integrity and authenticity of cultural heritage requires a high level of expertise, backed by the support of civil society and politics. This book is the result of the 2018 Conference of the Organization of World Heritage Cities, held by the Regional Secretariat for Northwest Europe and North America in Amsterdam, with the theme "Heritage & Tourism: Local Communities and Visitors – Sharing Responsibilities". The contributing expert authors – from Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe – draw on a range of disciplines to offer wider perspectives, stimulating dialogue among the spheres of heritage, sustainable tourism, and spatial planning. An updated chapter offers perspectives on sustainable tourism also after the COVID-19 pandemic.

This stunning “dystopian feminist eco-thriller” from an award-winning South Korean author “takes on climate change, sexual assault, greed, and dark tourism” (Ms. Magazine). Welcome to the desert island of Mui, where a paid vacation to paradise is nothing short of a disaster in this “mordantly witty novel [that] reads like a highly literary, ultra–incisive thriller” (Refinery29). Jungle is a cutting–edge travel agency specializing in tourism to destinations devastated by disaster and climate change. And until she found herself at the mercy of a predatory colleague, Yona was one of their top representatives. Now on the verge of losing her job, she’s given a proposition: take a paid “vacation” to the desert island of Mui and pose as a tourist to assess the company’s least profitable holiday. When she uncovers a plan to fabricate an extravagant catastrophe, she must choose: prioritize the callous company to whom she’s dedicated her life, or embrace a fresh start in a powerful new position? An eco–thriller with a fierce feminist sensibility, The Disaster Tourist introduces a fresh new voice to the United States that engages with the global dialogue around climate activism, dark tourism, and the #MeToo movement.
