“…Within the management literature, this issue has been widely considered though no attempt has been made as yet to consider the merit of designating multiple actors as focal units (Polonsky et al 1999, Rowley 1997, Wilkinson and Young 2002. The multi-dimensional aspect of the network (eg public, private and voluntary) may go some way to explaining why governmental involvement is central to tourism stakeholder networks (King et al 2000). Governments are responsible for planning and managing public assets as well as for arbitrating any disputes between parties and for making trade-offs between the interests of competing stakeholders (Gregory and Keeney 1994).…”

“…Similar principles may be applied to the implementation of tourism policy. There is also an extensive tourism literature focusing on how various stakeholders interact during the planning processes (for example, Bramwell and Lane 2000;King, McVey and Simmons 2000;Pforr 2002, Tsoun andTimothy 2001).…”

“…In tourism planning, governments often take on the responsibility of managing natural assets on the grounds that intrinsic values should be maintained for the benefit not only of today's users but also for future generations (King et al 2000, Murphy 1985. However other parts of government are primarily concerned with ensuring the economic prosperity of local communities and may not regard ecological sustainability as fundamental to that.…”

“…Establishing a degree of consensus amongst these diverse interests is no simple task (King et al 2000, De Lacy and Boyde 2000, Pforr 2002, Ritchie 2000, Timothy 2000, Starik 1995. The multiplicity of interests explains in part why conflict frequently arises in planning related to tourism activities.…”

A range of stakeholders should inform planning processes if these processes are to be consistent with best practice principles. This paper examines the case of the 12 Apostles Visitor Centre, a tourism development which was proposed to be located in a National Park in Victoria, Australia. Limited opportunities were provided for meaningful stakeholder input during the planning phase. Despite the prevailing view amongst all major parties that some development of facilities would be appropriate, an absence of genuine consultation was experienced prompting a substantial redesign of the development concept as originally conceived (in 1996) and to project delays which postponed the commencement of the development into 2000 by which time a new State Government was in place.

“…Thus, companies adopt a marketing approach beyond customer-oriented approach where the focus is on every segment of the society. The attached importance to the benefit of the society as a whole as well as the efforts for efficient use of limited resources are important topics shaping marketing strategies of contemporary businesses (Peattie and Peattie, 2009;Gaski, 1985;Prothero, 1990;Carrigan, 1995;Dos Santos, 2009;King et al, 2000).

Scarce resources, strict take-back legislations, decreasing life cycle of products and increasing competition are compelled original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to collect and reuse their returned products. Remanufacturing is a well-known and widely used environment-friendly manufacturing to evaluate product returns. Moreover, with remanufacturing, OEMs offer environment-friendly products to environmentally concerned consumers, also known as green consumer. This study aims to develop a prediction model to determine purchase behavior of consumer for remanufactured products. We investigate the data with a survey of closed-end questions conducted among 400 residents of Ankara, Turkey. We consider several factors that influence consumers' preferences in purchasing process of remanufactured products. The suggested model predicts consumer behavior of remanufactured products with logistic regression analysis. The results show that several factors have effects on purchase behavior of consumer for remanufactured products such as low prices, company reliability and product promotion changes consumer behavior from no purchasing to purchasing remanufactured products.

About 30% of visitors to Vanuatu visit the outer islands, where ecotourism has recently emerged as a small-scale but signi®cant activity. In the face of increasing competition from comparable Asia±Paci®c destinations, there has been pressure on tourism operators and the Vanuatu Government to improve product quality through mechanisms such as the development of high-quality tours. One way to enhance product quality is through the provision of appropriate professional training for tourism sector employees, including local tour guides. The paper outlines a tour-guide training programme delivered on the outer islands, which received ®nancial assistance from several foreign aid agencies. The programme is an instructive example of an attempt to implement a human resource strategy in a developing country arising from the recommendations of a national tourism masterplan that sought the active involvement of international funding agencies in the implementation phase. The paper evaluates the effectiveness of the training programme and outlines the challenges of programme delivery.
