“…This is an important issue as transformation attempts and alternative forms of tourism have been jeopardized to meet their social justice and equity goals. In this context, research by Giampiccoli and Saayman (2014) "argues that, while it is true that those alternative forms of tourism development (ET, RT, FTT, and PPT) [ecotourism, responsible tourism, Fair Trade tourism, and pro-poor tourism] have been coopted and re-shaped by the tourism industry within a more general neoliberal philosophy, their origin and development have never been outside the neoliberal framework and the mainstream tourism industry's 'guidance' and control." (p. 1673).…”

Inequality is growing within and between countries. Tourism is a growing sector affecting lives, with a vibrancy of its own and malleable structures that can benefit a majority, if social justice and equality are the goals. Cooperatives are one of these structures, and have the potential to drive a development trajectory that delivers a just tourism. We define just tourism as a form of tourism that delivers the most benefits to its members—for themselves and by themselves—representing a form of accumulation from within. This article is based on secondary data and is a conceptual paper. It posits a coop hotel model, which harnesses the hope of spreading the cooperative model for its finer qualities of providing job security to workers, happiness, democratic participation, decision making functions, self-governance, empowerment, openness, retention of capital within the community, the pursuit of both economic social goals, resilience, and importantly, the emphasis on community contribution and matters of sustainability. Community-based tourism and cooperatives have interlocking values such as local control, local/self-management, and being steeped in the local context. The coop hotels model, which is the main contribution of this article, suggests the creation of mother hotel coops, with coop sisters and coop children in pursuit of social justice for a just tourism.

“…Wisatawan milenial juga telah mendorong pergeseran nilai dari keserakahan kapitalisme akhir abad ke-20, yang pada akhirnya meninggalkan mass tourism, menuju perhatian pada kesejahteraan dan kemajuan sosial seperti pada alternative tourism (Kaihatu dkk., 2020;Sheldon & Fesenmaier, 2017). Dari berbagai model pariwisata alternatif yang tersedia, Community-Based Tourism (CBT) atau pariwisata berbasis masyarakat merupakan salah satu di antaranya (Giampiccoli & Saayman, 2014;Mtapuri & Giampiccoli, 2019). Sebenarnya, terminologi CBT muncul pada pertengahan tahun 1990-an (Albert J.…”

“…Broader structural or economic changes and trends often call for the ongoing development of communities [35]. Since the 1960s, community development has evolved from being centered around economic needs to more modern and more holistic approaches that include a variety of economic, cultural, social, and environmental aspects [36]. Multiple actors are involved in community development, such as governments, banks, private corporations, city councils, intermediaries, foundations, community development corporations, existing local businesses, and residents [37].…”

The Host Community and Its Role in Sports Tourism—Exploring an Emerging Research Field

The increase in individual sports activities is stimulating the rise of sport-related forms of vacationing. This is further intensified by tourists seeking authentic experiences in host–guest relations, physical health and well-being, and the consumption of local products and services. Communities, especially those in developing countries, do not yet fully recognize the potential of local sports as a resource and competitive advantage in their destination development. In the same way, tourism research is lacking analyses regarding the role of the community and its specific sports identity. Given this, the present paper aims to systematically review the promising interface between community development and sports tourism. The research questions are based on the potential of identity-based sports and necessary local engagement. These efforts are pursued through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with 49 articles. The results reveal the thematic clusters, research features, and prevalent challenges and benefits that the community has to deal with. The discussion proposes the utilization of local sports identity in systematic product development and highlights increasing local engagement. In conclusion, we call for future research on non-event-related sports tourism, in-depth case studies, and multi-disciplinary concepts to foster local sustainability.
