FOREWORD – 3 Foreword The OECD Tourism Committee and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Korea have carried out extensive research into the role of food and tourism in enhancing destination attractiveness and competitiveness, and its potential for country branding. Tourism and culture are intrinsically linked. In a previous publication, The Impact of Culture on Tourism (2009), we introduced the concept of the experience economy and explained the shift towards intangible culture and heritage. A growing number of countries are attempting to position food as intangible heritage in the global tourism market. Food, by connecting tourists to local culture and heritage, is becoming one of the most noticeable examples of the tourism experience. The main objective of this publication is to help policy makers and practitioners develop a better understanding of the linkages between food and tourism, annd local economic development. This report also brings new knowledge on the relationship between food experiences and tourism that can support policy and business development as well as marketing and branding activities. Food and the Tourism Experience: The OECD – Korea Workshop provides concrete examples of good practice, as well as policy orientations for national and local authorities. The book covers the following countries and regions: Austria, France, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latin America, New Zealand, the Nordic region and Spain. It is largely drawn from presentations made at the OECD-Korea workshop on Korean Cuisine in Tourism: International and Local Perspectives, in December 2010. The illustrative and innovative examples presented in the report show that a strong relationship between food and tourism/culture can help destinations to become more attractive and more competitive as locations to visit, work and live in. This report underlines the fundamental importance of food as a nexus of cultural, economic and social growth and diversity, and also as a springboard for local development and poverty eradication.

  • Rural Tourism in Spain, from Fordism to Post-Fordism
    PART VI ALTERNATIVE TOURISM RURAL TOURISM IN SPAIN, FROM FORDISM TO POST-FORDISM Lluís Garay Economics and Business Department, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya Barcelona, Spain Gemma Cànoves Geography Department, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona Barcelona, Spain and Juan Antonio Duro Economics Department, Universitat Rovirai Virgili Tarragona, Spain ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is twofold: from an empirical perspective, to demonstrate the qualitative importance of rural tourism in the recent development of Spanish tourism and its quantitative importance for other sectors such as agriculture; and from a conceptual perspective, to demonstrate the validity of the combination of two theoretical approaches. On the one hand, the Tourism Area Life Cycle, the most commonly used for this purpose since its publication thirty years ago and, on the other hand, the Regulation Theory, aimed at explaining the restructuring processes between different stages in specific sectors or in the whole economy. Key Words: Rural Tourism, Life Cycle, Regulation Theory, Restructuring, Fordism, Post-fordism. INTRODUCTION The tourism sector is undoubtedly one of the main sources of income of the Spanish economy. The country is currently the second favourite international destination in the world and the sector generates about 12% of the country’s total income and jobs (INE, 2010). Historically, the sector was one of the main engines that brought about the recovery of the Spanish economy in the last fifty years and has been frequently identified with the mass model of sun and sea tourism, but the country has a vast potential to offer in other typologies, as proved in recent years with the explosive growth of urban tourism.

  • The Conceptual Framework of Determinant Factors of Food
    International Journal of Business, Economics and Law, Vol. 15, Issue 2 (April) ISSN 2289-1552 2018 THE CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK OF DETERMINANT FACTORS OF FOOD EMOTIONAL EXPERIENCE AND OUTCOMES OF INTERNATIONAL TOURIST SATISFACTION: EMPIRICAL STUDY ON MALAYSIAN STREET FOOD Rafatul Haque Rishad ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to develop a conceptual framework to find out determinant factors of food emotional experience and outcomes of international tourist satisfaction about Malaysian street food. Literature in this study has noticed that, a lot of research has been done on the traditional food sector of Malaysia, compare to a very few on the street food sector especially to attract the foreign tourists and to find out their level of emotional attachment on point of product offering, health issue, atmosphere and service quality of Malaysian street food. Since no validate model has been developed so far, street food vendors are yet to be aware of how to provide quality services to the foreign tourists. Many researchers have found that the food is a major part of tourist attraction, so there may be a possibility of reducing the flow of international tourist in Malaysia near future. Introduction Food is the supreme elements in the tourism sector that acts as a sense of place attraction for travelers (Bessiere, 1998; Cohen & Avieli, 2004; Ryu & Jang, 2006; Seo, Kim, Oh, & Yun, 2013; Luis & Panuwat, 2016; Simon & Wang, 2017; Chen & Huang, 2018) who seek for unusual or extraordinary food experience and different food culture that might not acquire at their home countries. The tourism industry of many developing countries continues to record a steady progress and contribute to nation‟s economy (Yap, C.S., Ahmad, R.

  • THE PROMOTION of TOURISM in SPAIN from Stereotype to Brand Image
    THE PROMOTION OF TOURISM IN SPAIN From stereotype to brand image FERNANDO LLORENS BAHENA UNIVERSITY OF SALENTO 1. Introduction When we speak of stereotypes, few of us are aware that that the word originally referred to a duplicate impression of a lead stamp, used in typography for printing an image, symbol or letter. These stamps could be transferred from place to place, and it is this feature that gave rise to the current metaphorical meaning of stereotype as a set of commonly held beliefs about specific social groups that remain unchanged in time and space. Etymologically, the term stereotype derives from the Greek words stereos, ‘firm, solid’ and typos, ‘impression’. The earliest record we have of its use outside the field of typography was in psychiatry, in reference to pathological behaviours characterised by the obsessive repetition of words and gestures. The first use of the term in the context of social sciences was by the journalist Walter Lippmann in his 1922 work “Public Opinion”. He argued that people’s comprehension of external reality is not direct but comes about as a result of “the pictures in their heads”, the creation of which is heavily influenced by the press, which in Lippmann’s time was rapidly transforming itself into the mass media that we know today. Lippmann believed that these mental images were often rigid oversimplifications of reality, emphasising some aspects while ignoring others. This is because the human mind is not capable of understanding and analysing the extreme complexity of the modern world. Stereotypes are, furthermore, a ‘group’ concept. We cannot speak therefore of ‘private’ stereotypes because they are based on collective uniformity of content.

  • Developing Homestay to Support Community-Based Tourism Pengembangan Homestay Dalam Menunjang Pariwisata Berbasis Masyarakat Ilham Junaid, Nur Salam, & Muh
    Developing homestay to support community-based tourism Pengembangan homestay dalam menunjang pariwisata berbasis masyarakat Ilham Junaid, Nur Salam, & Muh. Arfin M. Salim Department of Tourism Management, Politeknik Pariwisata Makassar Address: Jalan Gunung Rinjani, Tamalate, Makassar, South Sulawesi 90224 E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], & [email protected] Abstract Wakatobi regency has been chosen as a ten-top priority tourism destination in Indonesia. It provides the opportunity for the local community to obtain benefits through tourism. The aims of this research are 1) to study the expectation of the community related to the management of homestay as accommodation business; 2) to analyse challenges and provide recommendations concerning how to implement community-based tourism on the perspective of community as the organiser of the homestay. Qualitative research conducted in March 2018 by visiting Wakatobi for participant observation and interviews three community members or homestay managers, two tour guides and two people from the tourism industry (accommodation). The research indicates that tourism has encouraged the local community to manage homestay, although there are members of the community require motivation and support to understand the significances of managing homestay and tourism. The management of homestay by the local community links to the implementation of community-based tourism and to optimise the management of homestay; it is necessary to provide sustainable training for the local community as well as to empower people through local tourism organisation. Key attractors such as activities and alternative attractions for the visitors are essential for the management of homestay. Limited numbers of tourists who choose homestay to become the challenge for homestay management, thus, the local community expects that the increasing number of tourists as well as a willingness by tourists to choose homestay as their accommodation.
