Framing Tourism Geography: Notes From the Underground

Understanding Indigenous Exploitation Through Performance Based Research Funding Reviews in Colonial States

“…This guidance stems from a history of research which has been detrimental in many respects to Indigenous peoples (Smith, 2012). Recognition of how knowledge is produced, circulated and assessed is therefore fundamental to establishing its credibility, its beneficiaries and how it is read in different places (Hall, 2013). It is at the local level that research gets its audience and therefore, "its motivation, relevance, application and strength" (Roa et al, 2009: 234).…”

“…However, to this could also be added the various forms of impact and quality assessments of individual publications, including as to whether publications are included in the "right" bibliometric database or not (Hobson and Hall, 2010), and the related development of university and institutional rankings (Kauppi, 2018). Such systems of surveillance often have direct impacts on how and on what research is conducted and where it is published (Hall, 2005), with corresponding sets of incentives and disincentives to do so which affect not only individual research careers but also the capacity to voice different forms of indigenous (and gendered and localized) knowledge and research practices (Hall, 2013). From an indigenous perspective, such a situation may only further reflect colonial knowledge relationships as the various institutional arrangements for assessing knowledge will frame the local knowledge of the colonised in relation to the knowledge and assessments of the coloniser (Connell, 2007;Smith, 1999, Smith, 2012.…”

Geographies of tourism development and planning

“…As noted, amidst a swelling and rich body of international writings around geographies of urban tourism, planning and development, mainstream debate is almost entirely concentrated upon presentday developments around tourism in cities which bypasses any substantive concern for past or inherited geographies of city tourism (Bickford-Smith, 2009;Rogerson, 2016;Rogerson & Rogerson, 2017). Nevertheless, concepts such as sustainable tourism or responsible tourism, a major focus for contemporary tourism and development scholarship, have rich historical antecedents (Walton, 2013), Historical research on tourism, "has usually been shunted into a siding and regarded, at best, as peripheral" (Walton, 2012, p. 49), in the same way that the field is often portrayed in the wider discipline (Hall, 2013). Overall, there is only limited research by geographical scholars that seriously investigate tourism geographies of the past which, it can be argued, is essential to inform comprehension of the transformation of tourism destinations and how we arrived at contemporary tourism development and planning issues (Butler, 2015;Saarinen, 2004;Walton, 2003Walton, , 2009b.…”

Turismo chino emisor: estado de la cuestión y agenda

“…La geografía del turismo se preocupa de forma central de las relaciones entre la actividad turística y el espacio y el entorno humano y natural en el que se desarrolla esta actividad (Williams y Lew, 2015). La geografía del turismo ayuda a entender el turismo como un fenómeno binario en relación entre humano/físico y conocimiento aplicado/teórico (Michael Hall, 2013), prestando especial atención a la gestión turística (Hall y Page, 2009). El presente estudio nos permite revelar que ninguno de los artículos revisados han utilizado marcos conceptuales propios de la geografía o de la geografía del turismo.…”
