Weather conditions throughout the year have enabled the implementation of alternative outdoor leisure activities to beach-based tourism, helping to alleviate the strong seasonality. Climate is currently a positive resource but it could become a limiting factor for these activities in the future. Here, we assess the present and future conditions by adopting the second generation climate index for tourism (CIT) to quantify the climate potentials for cultural, golf, sailing, hiking, cycling and football activities. Present and future potentials are derived using observed and projected daily meteorological data from the ERA-5 reanalysis and the DMI-HIRHAM5 regional climate model (RCM) included in EURO-CORDEX project, respectively. A quantile-quantile adjustment is applied to the projected CIT data to correct biases at the local scale. Present climate potentials confirm the optimal conditions of the Spanish Mediterranean coast for practicing all the activities in spring and autumn, while in summer, ideal conditions only prevail for sailing. Projections show a general future increase of excellent climate potentials in winter and a general improvement of the weather assets in the northern half of the country during the shoulder seasons, except for cycling and football.

    The limited influence of climate norms on leisure air travel

It does so by examining the roles of Norwegians' beliefs about climate change and emissions from air travel, their felt responsibility to limit emissions (personal norm), and expectations and behaviors of friends and family (social norms) in such travel. A representative sample of Norwegians was surveyed in 2019 and 2020 (N = 2842), based on a framework combining institutional and social-psychological perspectives. Structural equation modeling of the data reveals that leisure air travel is habituated and part of a lifestyle, supported by social norms, self-enhancement values and urban residency. Personal norms for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from flying are beginning to emerge in Norway, but their effect on leisure air travel is small and only indirect. Our findings suggest the need for interventions to complement and potentially amplify the emerging moralization process and support an evolution of new habits and travel lifestyle to limit the emissions from leisure air travel substantially. The disruption of travel habits by the COVID-19 pandemic might ease such a process.

    In the shadow of the mountain: the crisis of precarious livelihoods in high altitude mountaineering tourism

    Jase WilsonKatherine Dashper
    2270-2290页
    查看更多>>摘要：This article focuses on the crisis of precarious work/livelihoods that pervades the global tourism industry and prevents many from experiencing fair and just employment. Drawing on an ethnographic study of high-altitude mountaineering tourism in the Himalaya, we explore the various ways in which mountain workers are precarious, vulnerable, marginalised and often overlooked in the context of cross-border tourism practices. Drawing on concepts of justice and fairness we argue that the ongoing racial and social contours of colonialism give privileges to some bodies and not "Others," entrenching precarity of vulnerable communities and workers. However, despite these unfavourable conditions, local workers are not without agency to shape their conditions and experiences. Mountain workers on Everest provide an example of how, despite their precarity, workers can self-organise and exercise their voice to secure more just and equitable work. Decent work, secure livelihoods, and equality are core features of the sustainable development goals and will only be achieved through collective action, solidarity from different tourism stakeholders and the realisation of fair and just employment practices for the most vulnerable communities.

    Breaking bad: how anticipated emotions and perceived severity shape tourist civility?

    查看更多>>摘要：How to alleviate tourist incivility (i.e. social and environmental deviant behaviors) is not only a practical concern but an emerging tourism research topic. Advocating civilized tourist behavior could be an effective tool in enhancing sustainable tourism. In this paper, we test how tourists' anticipated emotions and perceived severity (of tourism incivility problems) shape tourist civility via an extended norm activation model (NAM). A total of 401 valid questionnaires were obtained from tourists of a national wetland park in China. The results indicated that: 1) both positive and negative anticipated emotions not only have a direct impact on tourist civility but also have an indirect impact via personal norms, 2) positive anticipated emotions (as compared to negative ones) play a more vital role in the tourist civility formation, and 3) perceived severity of tourism incivility problems negatively moderates the links of personal norms and negative anticipated emotions to tourist civility. This paper provides theoretical and practical implications to better understand the role of anticipated emotions and perceived severity in tourist civility decision-making.

    Tourism employee resilience, organizational resilience and financial performance: the role of creative self-efficacy

    Girish PrayagD. M. Chaminda Dassanayake
    2312-2336页
    查看更多>>摘要：Despite the recognition that employee resilience affects the resilience of tourism organizations, the influence of employees' creative self-efficacy on their own resilience and the subsequent effects on organizational resilience has yet to be ascertained. We use social cognitive theory to argue that creative self-efficacy and employee resilience have positive impacts on organizational resilience (planned and adaptive) and firms' financial performance. We test these propositions among 478 tourism and hospitality organizations affected by COVID-19 in Sri Lanka. Results suggest that employees' creative self-efficacy have a significant positive influence on employee resilience and planned resilience but, contrary to our predictions, lessens adaptive resilience and financial performance. Employee resilience only affects planned resilience but not adaptive resilience. Employee resilience and adaptive resilience have positive influences on financial performance of the firm. The findings have implications on how human capital development can contribute to sustainable tourism development. Implications for practice are also offered.

    Using a human rights approach to improve hotels' water use and sustainability

    Yesaya SandangStroma Cole
    2337-2355页
    查看更多>>摘要：This article explores the intersect between the human right to water, the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, and the reality of hotels water use. Our qualitative study was based on semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and focus groups with hoteliers, government agencies and community stakeholders in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. It examines the challenges faced by hoteliers to respect the human right to water and why hotels do not voluntarily adopt the Guiding Principles. The impeding factors identified include a lack of awareness, a lack of substantive voluntary schemes, the water tariff, the absence of data management; return on investment, profit and public image prioritized over environmental considerations; and inadequate regulations and their enforcement. Our study also indicates the potential of combining a human right to water impact assessment within the existing EIA to reform hotels water management and improve their water stewardship. In doing so, hotel water management would move beyond the domain of the hotel to consider their impact on the local community. This, the first study to take a human rights-based approach to the study of hotel's water use, also identifies the further research required on this topic: legal enforcement and community participation.

    How does negative destination publicity influence residents' shame and quality of life? The moderating role of perceived destination resilience

    Lujun SuHuixuan ChenYinghua Huang
    2356-2380页
    查看更多>>摘要：Destination management organizations (DMOs) increasingly focus on enhancing residents' quality of life. A key driver of this trend is that the quality of life of a destination's residents is closely linked to sustainable development in it. While DMOs recognized that negative destination publicity seriously undermines the sustainable development of tourist destinations, the negative impact on local residents and how to mitigate the negative impact have not been paid little attention. In light of this, the present paper contributes to knowledge by analyzing the effect of negative destination publicity on local residents' emotions and quality of life. Four scenario-based experiments were performed to test hypothesized relationships. Findings revealed that value-related negative destination publicity leads to a higher level of shame and lower level of quality of life for residents than performance-related negative destination publicity. They also revealed that high perceived destination resilience can attenuate the effects and low perceived destination resilience strengthens them. The findings, as well as enriching the literature on negative destination publicity, can guide practitioners to improve perceived destination resilience to attenuate negative impacts on residents.

    Tourism, compounding crises, and struggles for sovereignty

    Carter A. HuntMaria Jose Barragan-PaladinesJuan Carlos IzurietaAndres Ordonez L...
    2381-2398页
    查看更多>>摘要：Applying justice theory in tourism studies has yielded a vibrant flourishing of scholarship in recent decades. Yet, it is still argued that a clear conceptualization of justice tourism is still lacking. Sovereignty theory has seen broad application across many social sciences in recent decades, yet despite a clear connection, the tourism scholarship has engaged minimally with the sovereignty literature. This article aims to assimilate sovereignty theory into the justice tourism scholarship by carrying out a deep historical analysis to demonstrate how destination residents negotiate chronic and acute crises in the Galapagos Islands, a place with no original human population. With global immigration projected to grow and exacerbate environmental conflicts in the coming years, the current research is well-poised to provide urgent and generalizable insights into the sociocultural underpinnings of increasing human mobility, the environmental conflicts that exist between different value systems and worldviews, and the opportunities that exist to promote improved destination management on behalf of human wellbeing in places experiencing intense in-migration. Historical analyses are thus critical to understanding the subjective and temporal nature of struggles associated with justice-centric concepts, including but not limited to sovereignty.

    Tourism development and sustainable well-being: a Beyond GDP perspective

    Larry Dwyer
    2399-2416页
    查看更多>>摘要：The Beyond GDP approach to development is gaining widespread support from policy makers and researchers worldwide. While not formulated specifically for tourism activity, the approach serves as a guide to measuring the current and future well-being of destination residents associated with tourism development. Inspired by the Beyond GDP approach, a framework comprising the main dimensions of well-being is argued to provide valuable input into an action agenda to achieve sustainable tourism development. The paper discusses some key responsibilities of tourism industry stakeholders structured according to several different senses of 'beyond' that characterise the Beyond GDP research agenda. The paper concludes that research on destination tourism development can learn much from the Beyond GDP approach in respect of conceptual advance, industry practice and policy implementation.

    Tourism Geopolitics: Assemblages of Infrastructure, Affect, and Imagination

    Jennie Germann Molz
    2417-2420页
    查看更多>>摘要：In the introductory chapter to Tourism Geopolitics: Assemblages of Infrastructure, Affect, and Imagination, the authors refer to a headline from a travel news site that reads: 'Tourism is now the geopolitical center of the world. Deal with it." Dealing with the geographical and political implications of contemporary tourism is precisely the point of Tourism Geopolitics. Of course, this is not to say that tourism is only now becoming the geopolitical center of the world. Even before the tourism industry topped a billion international travelers per year, as it has done in the past decade, tourism has long been embedded in the geopolitical landscapes of extractive colonialism, state control, and military mobilization. Nor is geopolitics just now being considered in tourism studies. The book's editors acknowledge the extent to which their thinking has been informed by feminist geographers and mobilities scholars who have previously sought to bridge tourism, geography, and politics. Those of us who were introduced to tourism studies through books like Kincaid's A Small Place (1988), Enloe's Bananas, Beaches, and Bases (1990), or Pratt's Imperial Eyes (1992) will be familiar with the broad geopolitical critique in Tourism Geopolitics. In the pages of this journal, as well, scholars have long brought a geopolitical approach to the study of sustainable and responsible tourism in particular, with a number of recent articles and special issues focused on statecraft and international sanctions (Seyfi et al., 2022), dispossession, violence, and terrorism (Devine & Ojeda, 2017), peace, justice, and development (Higgins-Desbiolles et al., 2022), or human rights (Burrai et al., 2019), to name a few.
