From deconstruction to reconstruction:The inner mechanism and evolutionary model of tourism-driven rural reconstruction in the context of rural revitalization:Taking Zhongliang Village in Xixiangtang District,Nanning City as an example
Rural tourism is an important driver of rural reconstruction,and the central question of how tourism drives rural reconstruction has been a hot topic of interest in both academia and industry.Existing studies have confirmed that tourism has a significant positive impact on rural reconstruction,but the specific evolutionary paths and mechanisms have not yet been identified,and the differences between rural reconstruction and natur-al evolution have been overlooked.Based on systems theory,this paper adopts a"rooted+case"approach to study typical tourist villages,reveals the mechanisms behind tourism-driven village reconstruction based on the dual logic of"deconstruction-reconstruction",constructs a model of its evolution,and further compares it with villages in their natural state of evolution.The study finds that The study finds that:1)The process of tourism-driven rural reconstruction is characterised by stages,with the primary stage of tourism-driven rural reconstruc-tion not without the help of the"visible hand"of the government.2)The essence of tourism-driven rural re-construction is to realise rural value re-creation,the fundamental way is the interaction of the"people-place-in-dustry"trilogy,the important support is the"three rural communities"-the rural organizational and cultural community,the rural geo-economic community and the rural multi-spatial community,the basic conditions are rural economic reconstruction,spatial reconstruction,social reconstruction and cultural reconstruction.3)Tour-ism-driven rural reconstruction is a dynamic,developmental and cyclical process,which has gone through an initial stage of development from the economic and spatial reconfiguration led by"land,ecology,consumption and services"to the social and cultural reconfiguration led by"identity,otherness,revival and culture".The initial stage of development will be the reconstruction of the economic and spatial dimensions led by"identity,otherness,rejuvenation and culture",and the rapid development stage of reconstruction of the social and cultur-al dimensions led by"identity,otherness,rejuvenation and culture".4)Both tourism-driven rural reconstruc-tions and villages in a state of natural evolution begin with economic reconstructions,and the core elements of both are"people-place-industry",but there are differences in the course and speed of these reconstructions.
