Family Relations and Socio-Ecological Resilience within Locally-Based Tourism: The Case of El Castillo (Nicaragua)

Abstract: Although family-run micro and small businesses largely form the crux of the locally based tourism sector, either as part of a community organization or as independent units of private enterprise, in El Castillo (Nicaragua) can be found an example of how, even in the absence of a community organization to provide a structural framework, the development of local tourism has sustained practically all businesses set up and run by households, organized largely through family relationships. This structure is pivotal… Show more

“…Most of the managers claimed that despite legal constraints on prioritizing local suppliers, they still supported local entrepreneurs in the development and sale of products based on local nature, history and culture. Similarly, Diaz-Aguilar and Escalera-Reyes (2020) emphasize the importance of local communities for the sustainable development of tourism. Moreover, Wen, Zhang and Li (2020) show that small tourism and hospitality entrepreneurs who are rooted in the community are more motivated to act responsibly toward stakeholders in the local environment.…”

“…A socio‐ecological system is resilient if it maintains the connection between its elements in that transformation process. And that depends on its social capital and inclusion mechanisms (Adger, 2000) and on the flexibility and adaptive capacity of its community (Olsson et al, 2004) and domestic organisational structure (Díaz‐Aguilar & Escalera‐Reyes, 2020; Ruiz‐Ballesteros & Ramos‐Ballesteros, 2019). The use of this concept to study tourism in rural areas, and community‐based tourism in particular, has gained strength over the last decade (e.g., Cochrane, 2010; Espeso‐Molinero & Pastor‐Alfonso, 2020; Lew, 2014).…”
