Book excerpt: Aunque el sector turismo es, desde hace décadas, un sector fundamental para nuestra economía, si España pretende continuar siendo un destino turístico de referencia, va a ser necesario que sigamos siendo competitivos a nivel internacional. En este contexto se ha desarrollado el presente estudio que ha profundizado y aportado nuevas perspectivas en los conceptos de recurso, destino y competitividad turística; ha analizado y comparado los principales modelos de competitividad turística existentes; ha propuesto un nuevo modelo cuantitativo objetivo de competitividad de los destinos turísticos (MCOCDT); ha medido el grado de competitividad turística de los países de la Unión Europea utilizando este Modelo, posicionando a España en este espacio; ha puesto de relieve la existencia de intangibles en dicho Modelo y, por último, ha propuesto medidas de actuación que eleven el grado de competitividad turística de nuestro país. El estudio ha sido desarrollado por un amplio equipo de investigación formado por quince profesores de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, dirigidos por José Miguel Rodríguez Antón, catedrático de Organización de Empresas de dicha Universidad, y ha contado con la financiación obtenida gracias a la 2ª Convocatoria Propia de Proyectos de Investigación Multidisciplinares de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (2013-2015).

Book excerpt: El presente trabajo analiza el papel desempeñado por las Agencias de Desarrollo Local en las estrategias de recualificación de los destinos turísticos maduros de sol y playa del Mediterráneo español. A tal fin se examinan las acciones emprendidas por la Agencia de Desarrollo Local de Calp, un destino turístico de la provincia de Alicante analizándolo desde el paradigma de la Teoría de la Ventaja Competitiva de Michael Porter. La principal conclusión obtenida es que las Agencias de Desarrollo Local pueden ejercer un papel muy activo en la reestructuración y promoción competitiva de los destinos turísticos maduros a través de la innovación y la participación, pero para ello deberán abogar por una visión más ampl ia de Desarrollo Económico Local que la que or iginó su creación por parte de las instituciones locales.This paper analyzes the role played by the Local Development Agencies to restructure mature tourist destinations of the Spanish Mediterranean coastline. It is performed analyzing some actions undertaken by the Calpe's Local Development Agency through the prism of the Michael Porter's theory of competitive advantage. The main conclusion is that Local Development Agencies must play an active role in restructuring of mature tourist destinations based on innovation and public participation. This will require a broader view of local economic development than led to its creation by local institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estructura, Economía y Política Turística pretende cubrir, en primer lugar, la necesidad académica de una herramienta de uso, consulta y apoyo al trabajo cotidiano de la docencia universitaria en los grados de Turismo. Para ello los autores han diseñado una estructura interna flexible que trate de dar cobertura a la diversidad tan amplia de contenidos reflejados en los programas docentes de las distintas universidades españolas. La obra responde estrictamente a su título en su estructura interna: se divide en tres partes (estructura, economía y política) y sus trece capítulos se reparten del modo más proporcionado entre las mismas. La primera parte, titulada Estructura del mercado turístico español, se compone de cuatro capítulos: el primero, dedicado a efectuar un brevísimo recorrido por la Historia del fenómeno turístico; el segundo, dirigido a ofrecer de un modo sistemático los principales conceptos y definiciones técnicas relativas al turismo; el tercero, inmerso en la reflexión sobre el papel que tiene el sector sobre la actividad económica y, finalmente el cuarto, donde se exponen los principales rasgos distintivos del modelo turístico español. La segunda parte, titulada Economía turística, es con diferencia la más extensa y contiene, también, cuatro capítulos que entran a fondo en el análisis del mercado: el primero, dedicado a la demanda; el segundo, dedicado a la oferta; el tercero, profundiza en la estructura de la oferta y, finalmente, el cuarto, se dirige a la comercialización del producto turístico ofreciendo una descripción de los paquetes turísticos, las actividades turístico informativas, y el seguro turístico. La cuarta parte, titulada Política turística, está conformada por cinco capítulos que subrayan el papel del sector público ?a todos los niveles jurisdiccionales- en la generación, desarrollo y consolidación de espacios-destinos turísticos. El primer capítulo recoge una introducción a la Economía del Sector Público, con una especial incidencia en los fallos de mercado; el segundo capítulo trata de elevar la visión teniendo presente el contexto de globalización en el que nos encontramos; el tercer capítulo se dedica a efectuar un recorrido por la política turística en España; el cuarto capítulo concentra sus esfuerzos en explicar qué es y como se ejecuta la planificación turística, así como sus vínculos con la ordenación del territorio y, finalmente, en el quinto capítulo hacemos una revisión de los principales organismos internacionales -públicos y privados- relacionados con el Turismo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yellowstone National Park spans the states of Montana, Wyoming and Idaho in the USA. It is famous worldwide. Since their creation in 1872, most 'protected natural areas' have been considered as probably the greatest achievement of nature conservation. Many countries have such spaces within their territories and many visitors, native or foreign, use some of their free time to get to know them. In this sense these spaces undertake to conserve nature and educate society and give us a kind of cultural tourism that has grown considerably in recent decades. Cultural tourism today specifically includes, along with cities, museums, monuments and rural traditions, the aim of 'getting to know nature'. Protected natural areas are ideal for this. The tourism industry has realised this and so the value of the landscape and natural resources is becoming increasingly recognised. This is a welcome development and represents a challenge for tourism management, for environmental education and for dissemination of nature and conservation. This volume of the series Tourism Today considers the evolving relationship between tourism and protected natural areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inclusion, disability, an ageing population and tourism are increasingly important areas of study due to their implications for both tourism demand and supply. This book therefore sets out to explore and document the current theoretical approaches, foundations and issues in the study of accessible tourism. In drawing together the contributions to this volume the editors have applied broader social constructionist approaches to understanding the accessible tourism phenomena. Accessible tourism, as with any area of academic study is an evolving field of academic research and industry practice. As with other areas of tourism, the field is multidisciplinary, and is influenced by various disciplines including geography, disability studies, economics, public policy, psychology and marketing. "As one would expect from two scholars at the height of their academic abilities, Dimitrios Buhalis and Simon Darcy have delivered a timely and much needed contribution to the under-served area of accessible tourism. Harnessing the best conceptual developments on the topic, Accessible Tourism is a scholarly yet hugely readable collection and readily communicates the various contributors' passion for and command of their subject. This collection is a must have text for anyone engaged in the theory, practice and policy of accessible tourism and will be essential reading on undergraduate and postgraduate courses across a range of disciplines and fields. I cannot speak highly enough of this endeavour and I'm sure it will take accessible tourism and universal design debates into the mainstream of academic enquiry and industry practice."

Book excerpt: This book presents the foundations for the future of tourism in a structured and detailed format. The who-is-who of tourism intelligence has collaborated to present a definitive blueprint for tourism reflecting the role of science, market institutions, and governance in its innovation and sustainability. The book adopts a comprehensive approach, exploring recent research and the latest developments in practice to inform the reader about instruments and actions that can shape a successful future for tourism. Broad in scope, the book incorporates the perspectives of leading tourism academics, as well as the views of tourism entrepreneurs, destination managers, government officials, and civil leaders. The book is divided into three parts, the first of which addresses the scientific facets of innovation, analyzing the challenges and opportunities that technology provides for organic and disruptive developments in tourism, which will shape its future. In turn, the second part examines socio-cultural paradigms – with a view to dismantling traditional barriers to innovation. It also explores the role of heritage and the ethics of inclusiveness as drivers for sustainable tourism. The third part investigates new ways and means in governance and policy making for tourism. It introduces advances such as strategic positioning, symbiotic partnerships, and innovative management, and closes by presenting governance frameworks for an inclusive and sustainable future of tourism.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many countries tourism is an industry of great economic significance; it is seen as a main instrument for regional development, as it stimulates new economic activities. Tourism may have a positive economic impact on the balance of payments, on employment, on gross income and production, but it may also have negative effects, particularly on the environment. Questions arise as to whether it is possible to keep on developing tourism in a certain area without negative or irreversible influences on the environment. Tourism and Sustainable Economic Development provides a theoretical framework for these problems, as well as practical illustrations on the following topics: the conditions under which specialization in tourism is not harmful for economic growth; the trade-offs, if any, between tourism development and economic growth; the need for government intervention and the various policy options and instruments available to policy makers. The book comprises two parts. The first part presents general views on tourism and sustainable economic development, and some opinions on the relationship between tourism and the environment. Some of the basic concepts implicit in sustainability are examined in relation to regional development, urban tourism, art cities, and rural tourism. The second part of the book concentrates on strategies and policy instruments. The purpose is to concisely define and bring together some policies which appear to be necessary, and whose implementation is required if we are to reconcile tourism development with the protection and conservation of the environment. Some analytical tools for policy making with regard to tourism and the environment are developed. As will become clear, there are many gaps in our knowledge that need to be filled if we are to be successful in controlling tourism in a way that puts this important industry onto a sustainable development path.

Committee on the Rehabilitation and Integration of People with Disabilities and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Europeans with disabilities are unable to participate in important areas of society, simply because policies and the built environment are not designed to meet their requirements. Moreover, with the number of elderly people rapidly increasing, European societies will have to accommodate more and more disabled citizens in the future. This book invites member states to promote full participation in community life by ensuring access to all areas of society, including the built environment, transport, products and goods, information, public service, education, employment and health care and implement universal design as a strategy to ensure equal and democratic rights in society for all individuals, regardless of age, abilities or cultural background, including persons with disabilities.--Publisher's description.
