Evaluation and Obstacle Factors of Farmer Households'Livelihood Resilience in Ethnic Tourism Villages:A Case Study of 10 Villages in Wuling Mountain Area of Hunan and Hubei
Livelihood resilience,which can assess the adaptive capacity of farmer households in coping with external shocks such as rural tourism,is one of the current hotspots in the research of rural social-ecological system resilience.This paper constructs an evaluation index system of farmer households'livelihood resilience based on the three dimensions of buffering capacity,adaptive capacity and transformation capacity.It takes 480 farmer households of 10 ethnic tourism villages in Wuling Mountain area of Hunan and Hubei as the research objects,classifies their livelihood resilience types,quantitatively evaluates the livelihood resilience index,and analyzes the livelihood resilience obstacle factors.The results show that:1)The livelihood resilience of farmer households can be divided into four types:cultural inheritance type,diversified livelihood type,policy support type and traditional livelihood type.2)The livelihood resilience indices of the four types of farmer households are 0.4562,0.3865,0.2022 and 0.1964 respectively,the cultural inheritance type has the highest values in three dimensions,followed by the diversified livelihood type,the policy support type has the lowest value in terms of transformation capacity,and the traditional livelihood type has the lowest values in terms of buffering capacity and adaptive capacity.3)Four indicators,including the number of family members participating in tourism,access to professional skills training,the education level of core family members,and the types of assistance subsidies available to the family,are the main obstacle factors of livelihood resilience for different types of farmer households.
