“…Nowadays especially overtourism-related issues receive much attention, from researchers and in local debates and various media. The contributions of Gerritsen (2019), Noordeloos (2019), and Smith (2020) offer relevant background information on Amsterdam's tourism development. The attractions of Amsterdam are known well: a beautiful and charming city centre with canals and historic buildings, a museum, a party-scene, and coffee shops where soft drugs can be enjoyed.…”

The purpose of this paper is to examine policies and planning for sustainable city tourism in Amsterdam and Rotterdam and relate them to the notions of ‘tourism reset’ that emerged during the COVID pandemic period. Amsterdam is a prime European tourist city and has been suffering from problems associated with overtourism. Rotterdam receives much less tourists and can be seen as an emerging tourist city. Both cities have recently adopted new tourism policies, essentially future tourism visions. The case of Amsterdam and to a lesser extent that of Rotterdam show that formulating and agreeing on a tourism policy vision is easier than the decision-making process and implementing a vision. The instruments and powers of local government to manage the quantity and qualities of tourism are limited. Overtourism problems have stimulated carrying capacity thinking, which is considered inadequate for a multi-faceted problem like urban tourism.

“…In particular, perceived economic impact plays an important role (Chili & Xulu, 2015). Locals attempt to improve their income and quality of life by participating in tourism-related economic activities only when the benefits exceed the costs (Chen et al, 2018; Noordeloos, 2018; Nunkoo & Ramkissoon, 2011; Sharpley, 2014). Residents of a community may have conflicting perceptions of tourism (Hernandez et al, 1996).…”

Rural residents’ enthusiasm and persistence for participation in tourism employment contribute to the sustainable development of destination tourism. Taking Majiagou village in Hebei Province as a case study, this research focused on changes to residents’ participation behavior in tourism employment, using unstructured interviews and observations. Bounded rational decision theory was applied to delineate the decision-making process of tourism employment participation. The results indicated that rural residents’ participation in tourism employment was subject to a dynamic process of change across three phases: trial participation, herd participation, and selective withdrawal. This evolution is specifically guided by an internal mechanism consisting of "tourism industry attributes—individual bounded rationality—individual employment decision-making.” The study provides an effective analytical framework for characterizing the behavior of rural residents in a tourism community and offers managerial implications for the government to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of community participation.
