This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amorcer une réflexion sur l'importance du tourisme comme moteur d'évolutions historiques, qu'elles soient économiques, techniques ou socio-culturelles, tel est l'objectif de ce livre. A l'instar de l'industrialisation, la généralisation de cette activité de loisir au cours des XIXe et XXe siècles a eu des effets positifs et négatifs considérables, mais encore mal connus, autant sur les sociétés qui ont généré cette pratique que sur celles des régions d'accueil. De fait, la circulation toujours plus massive de touristes - un des premiers vecteurs de la mondialisation culturelle - a non seulement contribué à l'homogénéisation des habitus, mais aussi à la redistribution géographique des richesses, à travers les dépenses effectuées durant le séjour. Par ailleurs, la mise en place des infrastructures nécessaires au voyage d'agrément - transport, hébergement, divertissement - a stimulé le développement économique des régions touristiques. Quant à la compétition engagée pour attirer les touristes, elle a accéléré la modernisation technique par l'embellissement des lieux d'accueil, l'établissement d'infrastructures sanitaires et la construction de réseaux d'eau, d'énergie et de communication. L'ouvrage prend en compte une grande diversité spatio-temporelle, de l'Arc lémanique de la Belle Epoque au Québec des années 1960, et permet ainsi de développer une analyse en profondeur du tourisme et de ses effets dans les sociétés contemporaines occidentales.
Book Synopsis The Development of the Hotel and Tourism Industry in the Twentieth Century by : Carlos Larrinaga
Download or read book The Development of the Hotel and Tourism Industry in the Twentieth Century written by Carlos Larrinaga and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-20 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection explores the pivotal role of the hotel industry in building Western Europe’s tourism economy during the 20th century. The book brings together ten contributions focused on the same period, 1900-1970, to offer comparative perspectives from across the region including Italy, Switzerland, France, Spain and Britain. Drawing on historical case studies, chapters illuminate the different factors linking hotels and the broader tourism system including interventions of the public authorities and the State, the importance of private involvement, commercial strategies, the medium-term development of private hotels, hotel entrepreneurship, and the impact of economic crises and wars. By placing differing national approaches taken to the growth of the hotel industry in comparison, the book aims to fill a gap in the historiography of European hospitality and shed light on the wider impact of hotels and tourism on economic development at both a national and regional level. It will be of interest to a range of scholars, including in economic and business history, tourism studies, the history of tourism management, and social history.
Book Synopsis Lifelines of Our Society by : Dirk Van Laak
Download or read book Lifelines of Our Society written by Dirk Van Laak and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2023-08-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive history and examination of global infrastructures and the outsized role they play in our lives. Infrastructure is essential to defining how the public functions, yet there is little public knowledge regarding why and how it became today’s strongest global force over government and individual lives. Who should build and maintain infrastructures? How are they to be protected? And why are they all in such bad shape? In Lifelines of Our Society, Dirk van Laak offers broad audiences a history of global infrastructures—focused on Western societies, over the past two hundred years—that considers all their many paradoxes. He illustrates three aspects of infrastructure: their development, their influence on nation building and colonialism, and finally, how individuals internalize infrastructure and increasingly become not only its user but regulator. Beginning with public works, infrastructure in the nineteenth century carried the hope that it would facilitate world peace. Van Laak shows how, instead, it transformed to promote consumerism’s individual freedoms and our notions of work, leisure, and fulfillment. Lifelines of Our Society reveals how today’s infrastructure is both a source and a reflection of concentrated power and economic growth, which takes the form of cities under permanent construction. Symbols of power, van Laak describes, come with vulnerability, and this book illustrates the dual nature of infrastructure’s potential to hold nostalgia and inspire fear, to ease movement and govern ideas, and to bring independence to the nuclear family and control governments of the Global South.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How was heritage understood and implemented in European socialist states after World War II? By exploring national and regional specificities within the broader context of internationalization, this volume enriches the conceptual, methodological and empirical scope of heritage studies through a series of fascinating case studies. Its transnational approach highlights the socialist world’s diverse interpretations of heritage and the ways in which they have shaped the trajectories of present-day preservation practices.
Book Synopsis Mineral Springs Resorts in Global Perspective by : John K. Walton
Download or read book Mineral Springs Resorts in Global Perspective written by John K. Walton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spa resorts were a favoured destination for affluent seekers after health and comfortable leisure in opulent surroundings from the seventeenth to the twentieth century, although in the railway age they began to suffer from competition from new fashions in leisure and tourism, especially the seaside holiday. During their heyday the leading spa resorts became hotbeds of political and diplomatic intrigue, and gathering-points for high society. As such, they also became important businesses, and distinctive, carefully-managed urban environments. ‘Taking the waters’ at a mineral springs resort fell into eclipse over much of the Western world in the mid-twentieth century, only to revive in more diffuse guise as ‘health and wellness tourism’ in the new millennium. This book examines an important body of practices and experiences from the perspectives of health, pleasure, conspicuous consumption and display, urban governance, culture and politics across a quarter of a millennium, drawing its examples not only from the British Isles, France, Spain and Central Europe, but also from the United States and Australia. An international team of distinguished historians puts this neglected theme back on the historical map, at a time when spas and their treatments have never been so popular and visible in contemporary society. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Tourism History.
Book Synopsis Cycling and Recycling by : Ruth Oldenziel
Download or read book Cycling and Recycling written by Ruth Oldenziel and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology has long been an essential consideration in public discussions of the environment, with the focus overwhelmingly on creating new tools and techniques. In more recent years, however, activists, researchers, and policymakers have increasingly turned to mobilizing older technologies in their pursuit of sustainability. In fascinating case studies ranging from the Early Modern secondhand trade to utopian visions of human-powered vehicles, the contributions gathered here explore the historical fortunes of two such technologies—bicycling and waste recycling—tracing their development over time and providing valuable context for the policy successes and failures of today.

This book was released on 2014-02-26 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le terme promotion de la santé en Afrique, près de 30 ans après l'adoption de la Charte d'Ottawa, continue d'avoir des connotations complètement hors du sens que lui confère cette charte. Cela n'est pas étonnant quand on sait que la notion de santé dans ce contexte africain équivaut à la lutte contre la maladie à travers les soins de santé dispensés par des professionnels de la santé dans des formations sanitaires et les hôpitaux. L'évolution que connait le continent depuis quelques décennies est de donner un peu plus de place à la communauté à travers les relais communautaires dans une participation communautaire vidée de son contenu, car le pouvoir n'est jamais passé entre les mains des communautés.C'est au vu de tout ceci que le présent ouvrage à sa raison d'être pour expliquer les fondements de l'autonomisation communautaire et de la promotion de la santé avec leur importance pour la région africaine en proie aux mauvais indicateurs de santé comparativement aux autres régions du monde.
