“…Specifically, it includes a comprehensive index method, resilience network method, function model method, and layer-stacking method in order to analyze the degree of urban resilience comprehensively and quantitatively [18]. Based on this, urban resilience-related research focuses on typical geographic research areas (e.g., the Yangtze River Delta region and cities in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River) or specific types of cities (e.g., resource cities, tourism cities, and coastal cities) [13,15,[19][20][21]; however, few studies have investigated the resilience of border cities. At the same time, border cities, as an important urban type, have introduced the resilience theory to the border.…”

The study of border resilience is an effective means to analyze the development status of border cities. This study constructs a border city resilience assessment framework, measures the urban resilience level of 13 prefecture-level administrative regions in China’s northeastern border region from 2010 to 2019, reveals their temporal and spatial differentiation characteristics, analyzes the main obstacles, and proposes development strategies. This study reveals the following: (1) The overall resilience of the northeast border cities is at a medium level, and differences between regions and cities are large. (2) The resilience of the northeast border cities increased rapidly between 2010 and 2015, especially in the western area; the improvement effect was poor between 2015 and 2019, and except for the increased resilience of individual cities in the eastern area, the development of other cities was slow and some even declined. (3) At the city scale, the development potential, economic structure, residents’ security, and environmental governance capabilities are the main factors restricting improvement in the basic resilience of the northeast border cities. Insufficient national policy support and the poor development of neighboring countries have become obstacles to cities’ exclusive resilience.

“…Research on resilience in tourism destinations was carried out using interviews (Holladay and Powell 2016 ), structural equation modeling (Wang et al 2017 ), early warning technology (Nancy AB et al 2018 ), and other methods. Such work is hoped to enhance the resilience on island tourist destinations (Dogru et al 2019 ; Banerjee et al 2018 ) and in tourist communities (Bangwayo-Skeete and Skeete 2020 ) and cities (Guo et al 2018 ), as well as to promote study of the sustainable development of tourist destinations (Erdmenger 2019 ). By studying and analyzing resilience at home and abroad, a theoretical framework has been formed for resilience research that focuses mostly on emergencies.…”

The rapid development of the urban economy in China and the accompanying income growth experienced by urban residents have increased demand for tourism and leisure, which has brought pressure on the urban tourism environment system (UTES), making the contradiction between tourism economic development and the ecological environment increasingly acute. While seeking to rationalize the economic, social, and ecological benefits of tourism, reducing the fragility of the UTES and improving its anti-interference and recovery capabilities have become attracted significant attention from scholars in China and elsewhere. This paper establishes a definition of resilience for an UTES and constructs an evaluation index system for it in terms of the social, economic, and ecological environments. It also establishes an entropy weight-TOPSIS resilience evaluation model to measure resilience in regional systems, using ArcGIS to analyze the standard deviation ellipse and center of the gravity track of the resilience. System dynamics was used to construct diagrams of causal relationships and stock flow for the constituent elements of UTES to show the mechanisms that promote its resilience. This paper investigates 14 cities of Gansu Province in particular to simulate the resilience model of a regional system.

“…Culture is an essential element of urban transformation due to its role in promoting consumption and territorial marking in the context of global tourism and economic flows [60]. The right to the city influences urban policies [61] and indigenous culture should not be lost due to massive tourism [62], as it is an important element of the social capital of an urban destination [63]. Massive tourism also produces pollution [64] that affects the quality of life and tourist carrying capacity needs to be included in planning for sustainable tourism [65].…”

Managing Sustainable Urban Tourism Development: The Case of Ljubljana

2020

The interest in sustainable urban development and sustainable tourism development is growing. Yet, according to our knowledge, only a limited number of studies combining those two areas exist, and the holistic model for sustainable urban tourism development has not been introduced. Our study aims to integrate sustainable urban development scientific area with sustainable tourism development scientific area and to integrate and advance the existing models for sustainable urban tourism development. As a method for analyzing the results of 322 interviews, we used content analysis. Based on the analyzed data, the conceptual sustainable urban tourism model is proposed and applied to the case of Ljubljana. The results show that Ljubljana needs more emphasis on sustainable urban tourism development by considering different dimensions of sustainability, stakeholders, as well as types of tourism. Specifically, respondents took into consideration social, environmental, as well as economic sustainability. The most often mentioned stakeholders were local communities and companies; meanwhile, according to their opinion, Ljubljana has the greatest potential in cultural, green, and sports tourism. Finally, the study integrates sustainable urban development and sustainable tourism development scientific areas by providing a conceptual model and taking into consideration the need for proper management, ranging from planning to education and policy-making.
