The role of economic conditions and sustainable rural development on the sustainability of tourism development: evidence from China

Abstract

At present, tourism is counted among those industries which have gained global attention due to rapid growth. Hence, a constant diversification in terms of destination is needed in tourism development. The recent trends of industry highlight the demand of alternative tourism types, among which nature-related tourism appears to be an emerging concept. In this regard, the present article investigates the impact of economic conditions and sustainable rural development on the sustainability of tourism development in China. The current research has gathered secondary data from the World Bank from 1981 to 2020. The quartile autoregressive distributed lag model has been applied to test the association between the variables. The results revealed that GDP, inflation, FDI, exchange rate, energy use, gross savings, and sustainable rural development have a significant and positive association with the sustainability of tourism development in China. Findings offer managerial implications recommending the local government to focus on the sustainability of rural development and economic conditions that may lead to the implementation of tourism-related development projects. This study also guides the policymakers in establishing policies related to tourism development using different economic conditions and sustainable rural development.

How to Increase Sustainable Rural Tourism Performance? An Empirical Study in Indonesia

“…The discrepancies in the results of these studies have been debated by many authors. It is different from empirical evidence from other studies which states that government support has a positive impact on sustainable rural tourism development (Songling et al, 2018;Liu et al, 2023;Xue et al, 2023). As a consequence, the findings of this study do not support the previous contribution by Gica et al (2021), Apostolopoulos et al (2020), andPicas et al (2021).…”

Impactos económicos del turismo en proveedores de servicios turísticos a nivel mundial: Una revisión sistemática

“…La pandemia de COVID-19 ha tenido un impacto profundamente adverso en la industria turística, caracterizado por una drástica disminución en el flujo de turistas internacionales y una marcada reducción en la demanda de servicios turísticos (Xue et al, 2023). Este escenario ha dado lugar a la pérdida de numerosos puestos de trabajo en el sector turístico, intensificando la tasa de desempleo a nivel mundial, especialmente en países en desarrollo (Chen, 2023).…”

“…Es claro que se trata de un sector volátil, más aún cuando no ha sabido recuperarse a la fecha del golpe de la pandemia (Chen, 2023;Hu & Zhu, 2023). Mientras que los gobiernos han brindado estímulos económicos al sector y por ende a los prestadores de servicio, los resultados indican que, si bien los paquetes de estímulo económico contribuyen a la mejora de la recuperación del sector turístico tras la pandemia de COVID-19, esta influencia varía según el nivel de resiliencia de un país (Xue et al, 2023). Se observa que, en los países menos resilientes, la respuesta de la política económica tiene un impacto más pronunciado en la recuperación del turismo, pero este efecto se disipa a medida que los países aumentan su nivel de resiliencia (Okafor et al, 2022).…”
