Download or read book Social Tourism written by Lynn Minnaert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social tourism refers to facilitating access to tourism for low income groups and/or the use of tourism as a regeneration and economic stimulation strategy. Although social tourism has its roots in the early 20th Century and is still a major component of the tourism sector in a range of countries, the concept has received relatively little research attention until recently. In this volume, international specialists on social tourism present perspectives on social tourism from different disciplines and geographical contexts. The book highlights the multitude of interpretations and implementations of social tourism that make the concept so multi-faceted: examples reviewed in this book include holiday vouchers in Hungary, charity initiatives in the UK, tourism schemes for senior citizens in Spain and state provision in Brazil. Seven themed chapters and two case studies explore the potential of social tourism from a range of perspectives. Should tourism be a right that is available to all? Is social tourism indispensable in a sustainable tourism strategy? What are the different systems of social tourism supply and demand in Europe, and why do the implementations differ so much between countries? The book provides a critical reflection on these and other questions, and is therefore a key resource for social tourism researchers and practitioners. This book was originally published as a special issue of Current Issues in Tourism.

Book Synopsis Social Tourism at the Crossroads by : Anya Diekmann
Download or read book Social Tourism at the Crossroads written by Anya Diekmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social tourism is at a pivotal point. Over the past decade, there has been increased interest and research into social tourism issues, and as a result there is now much greater evidence on the important role that social tourism can play in providing significant benefits for the people supported through social tourism schemes. However, despite these advances and awareness of the benefits of tourism participation in most countries, there is still much confusion and ambiguity about the definition, role, and purpose of social tourism. This comprehensive volume reflects recent shifts in social tourism research by focusing on target groups and the benefits or constraints of these groups in holiday participation. The authors explore the diversity of issues, theories and social contexts that are relevant to social tourism research, offering a range of quantitative and qualitative methods and experimental designs as well as various policy and practice contexts to address policy issues. They also highlight opportunities for greater intensity of research on the importance of policy in advancing social tourism and to stress the fundamental role that social tourism can play in achieving strategic policy goals towards enhancing wellbeing, citizenship, and quality of life in the future. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure and Events.

Book Synopsis Regards croisés sur le tourisme social dans le monde: l’apport de la recherche by : Anya Diekmann
Download or read book Regards croisés sur le tourisme social dans le monde: l’apport de la recherche written by Anya Diekmann and published by PUQ. This book was released on 2013-10-09T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’accessibilité pour tous représente la valeur centrale du tourisme social, mais celle-ci peut être comprise de différentes manières selon les pays et les contextes socioéconomiques. Pour certains acteurs du tourisme, elle correspond à la participation la plus large possible en assurant la mixité sociale ; pour d’autres, elle vise surtout la mise en œuvre de mesures favorisant le départ en vacances de groupes cibles ; pour d’autres encore, elle est mise de l’avant comme stratégie pour contrer la saisonnalité du tourisme. Cet ouvrage livre un examen critique du large éventail des pratiques du tourisme social à l’échelle mondiale. Réunissant des contributions du colloque sur l’état de la recherche en tourisme social dans le monde organisé par l’Alliance de formation et de recherche en tourisme social à l’Université libre de Bruxelles en mai 2012, mais aussi des textes originaux, il présente des analyses de contextes nationaux, des évaluations d’impact et une mise en perspective d’expériences et de réalisations en matière de tourisme social. Accessibility for all is the main tenet of social tourism, but it may be understood in different ways depending on the country and socioeconomic context. Some social tourism actors view it as the widest possible participation achieved by assuring social mix; for others, it involves the implementation of measures supporting the holiday departure of targeted groups; and for some, it represents a strategy to counter the seasonality of tourism. This book delivers a critical examination of the wide range of practices of social tourism at the global scale. Gathering the main papers presented at the conference on the state of the art of social tourism research in the world organized by the Alliance for Training and Research in Social and Fair Tourism at the Université libre de -Bruxelles in May 2012, along with several other original contributions, it offers analyses of national contexts, impact evaluations, and spin-offs from experiences and accomplishments in social tourism.

Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Health Tourism provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge overview of the philosophical, conceptual and managerial issues in the field of health tourism with contributions from more than 30 expert academics and practitioners from around the world. Terms that are used frequently when defining health tourism, such as wellbeing, wellness, holistic, medical and spiritual, are analysed and explored, as is the role that health and health tourism play in quality-of-life enhancement, wellbeing, life satisfaction and happiness. An overview is provided of health tourism facilities such as thermal waters, spas, retreats and wellness hotels and the various challenges inherent in managing these profitably and sustainably. Typologies are given not only of subsectors of health tourism and related activities but also of destinations, such as natural landscapes, historic townscapes or individual resources or attractions around which whole infrastructures have been developed. Attention is paid to some of the lifestyle changes that are taking place in societies which influence consumer behaviour, motivations and demand for health tourism, including government policies, regulations and ethical considerations. This significant volume offers the reader a comprehensive synthesis of this field, conveying the latest thinking and research. The text is international in focus, encouraging dialogue across disciplinary boundaries and areas of study and will be an invaluable resource for all those with an interest in health tourism.

Book Synopsis Neoliberalism and the Political Economy of Tourism by : Jan Mosedale
Download or read book Neoliberalism and the Political Economy of Tourism written by Jan Mosedale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism has become increasingly shaped by neoliberal policies, yet the consequences of this neoliberalisation are relatively under-explored. This book provides a wide-ranging inquiry into the particular manifestations of different variants of neoliberalism, highlighting its uneven geographical development and the changing dynamics of neoliberal policies in order to explain and evaluate the effects of neoliberal processes on tourism. Covering a variety of different aspects of neoliberalism and tourism, the chapters investigate how different types of tourism are used as part of more general neoliberalisation agendas, how neoliberalism differs according to the geographic context, the importance of discourse in shaping neoliberal practices and the different approaches of putting the neoliberal ideology into practice. Aiming to initiate debates about the connections between neoliberalism and tourism and advance further research avenues, this book makes a timely contribution which discusses the relationships between markets, nation-states and societies from a social science perspective. Neoliberalism is considered as a political-economic ideology, as variants of the global neoliberal project, as discourse and practices through which neoliberalism is enacted.
