“…Also, few negative influences can be observed. The most controversial is the number of tourists (Yang et al, 2020). As the prosperity of the world increases, more people are able to enjoy trips that were once only possible for the select few.…”

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Increasing the socio-economic effects caused by the tourism development in the local population, they adopt some attitudes according to the impacts directly or indirectly perceived. However, some of this impact can be considered positive or negative, according to different perspectives. The issue of the resident-tourist relationship has been much-discussed recently. Therefore, many case studies are being conducted that address the impacts on both residents and tourists. The goal of this manuscript is to analyze the attitudes of local residents to the development of tourism in the urban monument zone Předhradí. Primary data were collected in a questionnaire survey for residents who have a permanent residence in a municipality of Předhradí in 2020. In our research, we tried to identify the significant negative impacts of tourism development. In the same way, we evaluate how the locals see positive effects on their quality of life conducted with tourism development. The research finds out that local respondents perceived some negative impacts to increase the economic perspective, as they referred to in the higher traffic load or increased noise. The pandemic crises are perceived as a game-changer in the tourism industry. For that reason, we suggest the primary considerations for future research not only with the academic perfective as for the practical point of view. The local population’s entrepreneurship attitudes must be one of the tools to assume the resilience toward the tourism development impacts.

“…This inevitably leads to disappointment as people are reduced to a melancholy mass (Pompurová et al, 2020). The positive relationships between tourism psychological empowerment, tourism economic empowerment, and participation willingness would be more robust when village residents' participation ability is higher (Yang et al, 2020).…”

“…Farmers can acquire additional income as their individual abilities are reinforced. Therefore, as Yang et al (2020b) and Wang and Xiang (2017) stated, motivation, opportunity, and ability have positive impacts on farmers' participation in tourism. However, in comparison, the motivation of farmers has the greatest impact on participation, whereas the opportunity to participate has the least impact.…”

“…In tourism activities, tourists' motivation and opportunity are positively related to their participation, but not significantly related to their ability (Leung and Bai, 2013). Therefore, is the tourism participation of farmers in border tourism areas affected by the three components (Wang and Xiang, 2017;Yang et al, 2020b)? Based on this question, this study proposes the following: Hypothesis 1a (H1a): Participation motivation has a significant positive impact on involvement level.…”

Tourism, as a new way of industrial poverty alleviation, is of great significance to poverty reduction in border areas. This research takes the Sino–Vietnamese border tourism area as a case study and introduces a sustainable livelihood analysis framework. It collects questionnaire data from Napo County of Guangxi and uses structural equation modeling to analyze the behavioral intention of farmers still willing to participate in tourism after overcoming poverty. Results indicate that (1) participation motivation, participation opportunity, and participation ability had significant positive effects on farmers’ involvement level; (2) farmers’ economic, social, cultural, political, and environmental outcome perceptions had significant effects on their sustainable livelihood outcome perception; (3) farmers’ involvement level had a significant positive effect on their sustainable livelihood outcome perception; (4) the positive effect of the involvement level on behavioral intention failed to pass the significance test; and (5) farmers’ sustainable livelihood outcome perception had a significant positive impact on behavioral intention. Therefore, farmers’ involvement in poverty alleviation through tourism is a complex process of behavior and psychological perceptions.

“… Mihalič (2000) reported that tourist destinations, tourist routes, and the tourism industry are the main factors to use when measuring tourism competitiveness. Scholars have found that the main influencing factors of tourism competitiveness are human resources, talent competition, image marketing, and knowledge-based management ( Wei, 2000 ; Nie, 2006 ; Zhang et al, 2011 ; Cvelbar et al, 2016 ; Yang et al, 2020 ; Lan et al, 2021 ). In addition, tourists’ perceptions and the level of scientific and technological development of tourist destinations have a significant impact on the competitiveness of urban tourism destinations.…”

Tourism Competitiveness Evaluation: Evidence From Mountain Tourism in China

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The evaluation of tourism competitiveness is an important tool for analyzing the potential of tourism in a specific context. Enshi Autonomous Prefecture (EAP) in China is selected as a case through which to explore the potential of mountain tourism and its competitiveness in the tourism industry. This study develops EAP’s mountain tourism competitiveness model focusing on three criteria: core competitiveness of mountain tourism, the economic environment’s competitiveness, and infrastructure competitiveness. Context-specific customized evaluation index has been applied to data collected from EAP Statistical Yearbook for 2005–2014. The study reveals that the value of EAP’s mountain tourism core competitiveness, economic and environmental competitiveness, and infrastructure competitiveness are 84.292, 13.4, and 2.308%, respectively. When tourism core competitiveness is increased by one unit, EAP’s mountain tourism competitiveness will increase by 0.84292 units. Similarly, when economic environment competitiveness is increased by one unit, EAP’s mountain tourism competitiveness will increase by 0.134 units. EAP’s mountain tourism competitiveness increases by 0.02308 units when infrastructure competitiveness increases by one unit. The major reasons for low levels of competitiveness were lack of awareness of the county authority, a low level of cooperation, and weak infrastructure. The recommendations from the study’s findings are as follows. Firstly, the county authority should appropriately improve the relationship between competition and cooperation, maintaining cooperation in competition, and competition in cooperation. Secondly, the county authority should strengthen communication by establishing an effective coordinated mechanism. Thirdly, the county authority should improve the sense of cooperation and jointly develop the mountain tourism market. Fourthly, the county authority should improve the construction of tourism infrastructure and break down the barriers to tourism cooperation. The study’s findings help develop a “win-win” cooperation mechanism within the competition and support the sustainable development of the mountain tourism industry while reducing poverty and promoting the revitalization of the mountains of China.
