“…As such, the JNA was dissuaded from launching an outright attack on Istria and the northern coastal regions (Cigar, 1993). Instead, the greatest impact of the war in this region comprised a virtual standstill in tourism (the region's top industry), as well as severe suppression in its transport and economic development (Čavlek, 2002;Rivera, 2008).…”

Intergenerational transmission of historical memories and social-distance attitudes in post-war second-generation Croatians

Intergenerational transmission of memory is a process by which biographical knowledge contributes to the construction of collective memory (representation of a shared past). We investigated the intergenerational transmission of war-related memories and social-distance attitudes in second-generation post-war Croatians. We compared 2 groups of young adults from (1) Eastern Croatia (extensively affected by the war) and (2) Western Croatia (affected relatively less by the war). Participants were asked to (a) recall the 10 most important events that occurred in one of their parents' lives, (b) estimate the calendar years of each, and (c) provide scale ratings on them. Additionally, (d) all participants completed a modified Bogardus Social Distance scale, as well as an (e) War Events Checklist for their parents' lives. There were several findings. First, approximately two-thirds of Eastern Croatians and one-half of Western Croatians reported warrelated events from their parents' lives. Second, war-related memories impacted the second-generation's identity to a greater extent than did non-war-related memories; this effect was significantly greater in Eastern Croatians than in Western Croatians. Third, war-related events displayed markedly different mnemonic characteristics than non-war-related events. Fourth, the temporal distribution of events surrounding the war produced an upheaval bump, suggesting major transitions (e.g., war) contribute to the way collective memory is formed. And, finally, outright social ostracism and aggression toward out-groups were rarely expressed, independent of region. Nonetheless, social-distance scores were notably higher in Eastern Croatia than in Western Croatia.

“…Preko polovice od ukupnog broja publiciranih čla-naka (129) napisali su znanstvenici iz SAD-a With regard to the geographical distribution of contributions, based on the origin of fi rst author affi liations, there is an evident domination of authors from the Anglo-Saxon area (Table 1). More than a half of the 129 published articles were written by scholars (50) i Velike Britanije (21). Ako se još pridodaju autori iz Australije (9) i Novog Zelanda (7), dvaju značajnih anglo-saksonskih dugolinijskih tržišta, udio autora s ovih područja povećava se na otprilike dvije trećine.…”

If further including those from Australia (9) and New Zealand (7), which are another two other important Anglo-Saxon long-haul markets, this share amounts to approximately two thirds of contributions.…”

SAŽETAK:Obzirom na sve veći značaj i utjecaj terorizma na međunarodni turizam, buduća će se istraživanja u turizmu zasigurno pojačano usredotočiti na ovu posebnu vrstu krize. U ovom se članku analizira evolucija istraživanja na poveznici turizma i terorizma kako bi se potakla buduća istraživanja u ovom području. S jedne strane, provedena je klasična bibliometrijska analiza članaka u časopisima na temu "turizam" i "terorizam" a da se pri tomu fokus nije sužavao isključivo na časopise iz područja putovanja, turizma i ugostiteljstva. S druge strane, uparene su kvalitativna analiza sadržaja i kvantitativna višestruka korespondencijska analiza kako bi se opisalo ovo specifi čno područje istraživanja. U tu svrhu se rabila procedura HOMALS (analiza homogenosti metodom najmanjeg kvadrata). Ova je analiza rezultirala vrijednim pregledom trenutnog stanja istraživanja u ovom, nažalost, aktualnom istraživačkom području.KLJUČNE RIJEČI: terorizam, kriza, bibliometrija, analiza sadržaja, HOMALS ABSTRACT: Given the rising signifi cance of terrorism and its implications on international tourism, future tourism research will certainly intensify its focus on this particular type of crisis. To assist future research in this area, this article analyzes the evolution of research at the tourism and terrorism nexus. On the one hand, a classical bibliometric analysis of journal articles on "tourism" and "terrorism" is conducted, thereby not narrowing the focus exclusively to journals from the fi elds of travel, tourism and hospitality. On the other hand, qualitative content analysis and quantitative multiple correspondence analysis are paired to map this detailed research area. For this purpose, the HOMALS (analysis by means of altering least square) procedure was used. The results of this analysis create a valuable overview of the current state of research in this, unfortunately, topical area of research.

“…The same research foci in this area were followed by most hospitality and tourism researchers throughout the last decade, analysing mainly the causes of crises that affected tourism and industry responses (Henderson 2003;McKercher & Chon, 2004;Taylor & Enz, 2002), their impact on the industry (Blake & Sinclair, 2003;Cavlek, 2002;Raab & Schwer, 2003) and recovery strategies (Armstrong & Ritchie, 2008;Beirman, 2003, Lo et al, 2006. Some initial attempts to develop a more strategic framework for managing crises in hospitality and tourism were made by Cassedy (1991) and then by Santana (1999), Faulkner (2001, Ritchie (2004), Paraskevas and Arendell (2007) and Hystad and Keller (2008).…”

Purpose -To critically review the use of Delphi techniques in qualitative research for utilising 'expert' opinions and to explore through a detailed example, how Policy Delphi can be used by hospitality researchers as an alternative to the more widely used Normative Delphi.Design/methodology/approach -This paper reflects on the research methodology of a project that explored organisational crisis signals detection using Policy Delphi with a criterion sample comprising 16 senior hotel executives involved in crisis management.Findings -The main methodological concerns regarding Delphi are the definition of consensus, the expertise of the panel, its lack of scientific rigour, and -due to its lack of uniformity-reliability and validity of findings. Policy Delphi by default addresses the first since it does not seek consensus and can, through its design and execution, address the remaining concerns.Research limitations/implications -Carefully designed Policy Delphi can offer a powerful research tool for exploratory research in hospitality, particularly for development of policies and strategies within an organisation. Unlike Normative Delphi, it is not intended as a decision making tool, but rather as a tool to generate options and suggest alternative courses of action for consideration.Originality/value -The paper presents a valuable research tool that has evaded the attention of many hospitality researchers offering an illustrative example of its use in exploratory research to deliver credible, transferable and confirmable findings.
