Hence, this study mainly focused on why reconvicted and recidivists increased while existing judiciary severe punishments in the country? Thus, the main objective was to explore the causes of the increase of recidivists.

    Tourism Governance for Sustainable Heritage Tourism in Sri Lankan

    Tourism Governance for Sustainable Heritage Tourism in Sri Lankan Heritage Destinations Sivesan Sivanandamoorthy This thesis is submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Education and Arts Federation University Australia Ballarat, Victoria Australia Submitted in December 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates tourism governance models for sustainable heritage tourism in Kandy, a world heritage city situated in central Sri Lanka. Additionally, it explains how the success of sustainable heritage tourism has underpinned sustainable livelihoods development from a socio-cultural perspective. The main objective is to find, identify and assess the influence of tourism governance on sustainable heritage tourism in Sri Lanka. Stemming from this approach is the development of a tourism governance model for sustainable heritage tourism in Kandy. This thesis is intended as a response to the challenges of adopting a sustainable livelihoods development approach. Accordingly, it investigates the role sustainable heritage tourism plays in host community development within the context of sociocultural, economic and environmental aspects in Kandy. Employing a qualitative methodological approach, this thesis is underpinned by an interpretive research philosophy. Research data was collected through field-based in- country interviews and open-ended questionnaires as this approach allowed respondents to offer more information and to include their feelings, attitudes and understanding of the subject. Research results from in-country fieldwork reveal that tourism governance models have a major influence on the viability of sustainable heritage tourism at Sri Lankan heritage destinations. Macro-scale and micro-scale factors were found to be influential in tourism governance models. Additionally, sustainable heritage tourism was found to be a persuasive factor in host community development.
