  • From Farmers and Shepherds to Shopkeepers and Hoteliers: Constituency-Differentiated Experiences of Endogenous Tourism in the Greek Island of Zakynthos
    From Farmers and Shepherds to Shopkeepers and Hoteliers: Constituency-differentiated Experiences of Endogenous Tourism in the Greek Island of Zakynthos By: Yiorgos Apostolopoulos and Sevil F. Sönmez Apostolopoulos, Y. and S. Sönmez (1999). From Farmers and Shepherds to Shopkeepers and Hoteliers: Constituency-Differentiated Experiences of Endogenous Tourism in the Greek Isle of Zakynthos. International Journal of Tourism Research, 1(6):413-427. Made available courtesy of Wiley-Blackwell *** Note: Figures may be missing from this format of the document *** Note: The definitive version is available at http://www3.interscience.wiley.com Abstract: The effects exerted by endogenous tourism investment on the developing Greek island of Zakynthos are examined, focusing in particular on whether the experiences among residents, tourist enterprises and local government are homogeneous, or whether they reflect varied attitudes related to sociodemographic, destination, development-process and tourist characteristics. Multivariate analysis shows that the main factors contributing to the variance in locals' experiences of and reactions to tourism development are the endogenous nature associated with the early 'development' phase of the evolution cycle, inhabitant constituency, carrying capacity and tourist nationality. In addition, the protection and conservation of natural and sociocultural resources are revealed as serious concerns of the island's local government. Management strategies for visitor-impact alleviation should focus on community-based

  • Functions, Structure, and Physical Resources of Healthcare Organizations 5
    CHAPTER FUNCTIONS, STRUCTURE, AND 1 PHYSICAL RESOURCES OF HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS Bernardo Ramirez, MD, Antonio Hurtado, MD, Gary L. Filerman, PhD, and Cherie L. Ramirez, PhD Chapter Focus The key idea of this chapter is that form follows function, and function defines structure. Healthcare organizations vary—not only from country to country, but also within each country—as they address issues of access, quality, and cost that are influenced by social, economic, and political factors. The principles described in this chapter can be applied to ambulatory, acute, chronic, and home care organizations with varying levels of resources and local organizational response capacity. The first section of this chapter examines the key functions of healthcare organizations, with an emphasis on the need for a continuum of patient-centered care. Later sections review the main components of health- care organizations and the ways they interact to achieve desired outcomes and performance improvement. The chapter explores ways of designing, structur- ing, and analyzing organizations to effectively and efficiently manage physical resources and carry out key functions. Learning Objectives Upon completion of this chapter, you should be able to • distinguish the key functions of healthcare organizations and relate them to the priorities of access, cost, and quality; • develop mechanisms to assess the performance of healthcare organizations; • design a structure for an organization that takes into consideration the resources available in a given community to achieve the best possible health outcomes; 3 This is an unedited proof.

  • Healthcare in the Usa: Understanding the Medical-Industrial Complex
    B3 | HEALTHCARE IN THE USA: UNDERSTANDING THE MEDICAL-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX Introduction In the mid-1960s a group of progressively-minded New York activists came together to found the Health Policy Advisory Center or Health/PAC as it came to be called It was a time of intense activism in New York as poor communi- ties took to the streets demanding improved services and were emboldened to actually take over Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx (known locally as ‘the butcher shop’) 1 Following a 1967 ‘exposé-analysis’ written by one of the authors of this chapter (Robb Burlage), Health/PAC began publishing a monthly bulletin offering a ‘New Left’ perspective on health Three years later in 1970, John and Barbara Ehrenreich published a book-length critique of US healthcare based on the Health/PAC article, titled The American Health Empire. The medical–industrial complex In November 1969, Health/PAC first used the phrase ‘medical–industrial complex’ (MIC) as a way of characterizing the US health system The term was a spin-off from President Eisenhower’s farewell address in 1961, during which he discussed the dangers of the “military–industrial complex” Health/PAC’s use of the term ‘MIC’ incorporated the perception that healthcare was moving away from a system built on individual doctors and small community hospitals; healthcare was becoming more and more the ‘business’ of large academic centres that Health/PAC characterized as medical empires These medical empires were constructed around a central (private, academic) hospital and outlying satellite
