Sustainability and Visitor Management in
Tourist Historic Cities

Sustainability and Visitor Management in Tourist Historic Cities

This book invites a reorientation of tourism towards accountability, restorative practices and social impact This book examines the dominant profit-driven paradigms that have traditionally underpinned tourism development. By bridging theory and practice, this book challenges conventional industry perspectives and advocates for a more sustainable and socially conscious approach to tourism development. It invites readers to question long-held assumptions, confront uncomfortable truths and engage with emergent ideas and practices that are pushing the boundaries of what socially responsible tourism can and should be. Through insightful case studies and empirical research, this book equips readers to rethink the social impact of tourism and demonstrates that profitability and accountability are not contradictory objectives but mutually reinforcing dimensions of resilient and regenerative tourism systems.

Beyond Profits

Rethinking Social Impact and Accountability in Tourism

It has become increasingly common to discredit the great modern worldviews, arguing that their attempts to realize ideals have ended in failure. The first to be criticized was Enlightenment leftism, following the collapse of real socialism. This was followed by other failures--wars, crises, ecological disasters--which also affected liberalism, unable to build a better society. All this has fostered a collective sense of defeat: we no longer understand reality, nor do we know how to relate to it. We once believed we could; now we feel intellectually disillusioned and politically frustrated. As a Benjaminian might say, we live among ruins.

Was haben Sauerteig, Kaffee, Falafel und Mayo gemeinsam? Warum riechen Kindheitserinnerungen nach Gewürzen? Und wer bestimmt, was auf den Tisch kommt? In 'Aufgetischt' folgt Mohamed Amjahid den Geschichten, die in unseren Zutaten und Gerichten stecken. Persönlich, kenntnisreich und mit großer Lust am Genuss erzählt er von Esskultur, Kolonialismus, Lebensmittelindustrie und sozialer Ungleichheit. Ein Buch über das, was wir täglich essen - und über die Welt, die darin verborgen liegt: überraschend, sinnlich, streitbar und voller Anekdoten und Küchentipps.

StoryQ Founder Dr. Rick Stevenson has conducted 7,000 interviews across 6 continents over the last 25 years. His journey has taken him from the orphanages of Cambodia, into the favelas of Brazil and the dirt-floored huts of Zambia, to the beaches of Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the marble-strewn halls of Oxford University, and the C-Suites of corporate America. This book outlines the method behind his perpetual quest to help people discover, articulate, and gain agency over their own stories. He is a sought-after speaker in the corporate, non-profit, and educational worlds sharing his unique insights and valuable lessons with audiences ranging from underprivileged school kids to executives and board members of Fortune 500 Companies.

How to Be a Personal Story Mentor

Digital technology has transformed how societies communicate, interact, and organize, creating a world where information flows faster than ever before. Social networks, in particular, shape identity, influence, and collective behavior in profound ways. Digital Society and Social Networks explores how digital platforms affect human relationships, political engagement, and cultural trends. The book discusses online communities, digital communication theories, data privacy, and the role of algorithms in shaping public opinion. It also examines issues such as digital inequality and cyber ethics. By connecting sociological theory with real-world phenomena, it provides readers with a critical understanding of how technology is redefining modern social life.

Digital Society and Social Networks

Systematic and ethical research is essential for understanding social behavior, institutions, and change. Research methods provide the foundation for evidence-based knowledge and policy formulation. Social Research Methods introduces qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method approaches to studying social phenomena. The book discusses survey design, sampling, data collection, and analysis techniques. It also covers ethics in research and the interpretation of findings for social policy and academic inquiry. Through clear explanations and practical examples, it equips students and researchers with the methodological tools needed to conduct rigorous and meaningful social science investigations.

Over the past two decades, Latin American politicians and activists have reckoned with their nations' histories of racism, forced displacement of native peoples, and inequality by acknowledging Indigenous communities as peoples preexisting the modern states. In Argentina-a nation long fixated on presenting itself as "white" and "European"-this shift has been dramatic. After decades of erasure and racism toward Indigenous peoples, Argentinian civil society is identifying Indigenous groups as not just an element from the past, but as nations central to the country's culturally plural and multiracial identity.
 
 In Urban Indigenous Assemblages, Ana Vivaldi considers how Argentina's urban Indigenous population fits into this recent political and social movement. To do this, she focuses on how the Qom Indigenous people-whose traditional territories are in northern Argentina-have moved to Buenos Aires, made homes in shantytowns alongside other migrants, and remade urban space by building Indigenous lives in the city. Starting from a Qom barrio in Greater Buenos Aires, Vivaldi traces how Qom peoples' travels to rural communities and movement across the city create complex networks and produce an urban life always in connection to other places. She argues that urban racialized indigeneities represent sites of contradictory relations visible and invisible to state actors and hypervisible to development agencies, as the Qom are expected to prove their authenticity and remove themselves from important relationships with nonwhite neighbors to access rights and recognition.
 
 Based on eighteen months of fieldwork, this book analyzes the historical process that created the barrio: the constant remaking of this Indigenous space in interaction with state institutions and NGOs, the links between the barrio and northern Argentina through travels "far out" to rural communities in the Chaco, and the expansion of "Indigenous territories" beyond bounded location.

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

Routledge Studies in Religion and Politics

The Politics of Catholic NGO Networks asks 'Who speaks for the Catholic Church during a humanitarian crisis?' and answers that there is no single voice; only a plurality of Catholic actors whose relationships with the Holy See differ sharply, and whose humanitarian work is shaped as much by internal organisational dynamics and Church politics as by the crises they respond to.This book offers the first comparative study of three of the world's most significant Catholic humanitarian networks: the Caritas confederation, the Jesuit Refugee Service, and the Community of Sant'Egidio, through drawing on over thirty interviews and extensive fieldwork in Rome and the Vatican. Each network occupies a distinct status (dependent, semi-dependent, and independent organisations) in relation to Church hierarchy, producing strikingly different approaches to assisting refugees and forced migrants. Moving between the internal governance of the Church and the external landscape of secular humanitarianism, the book exposes a persistent and more nuanced "religious literacy gap" among UN agencies, donors, and NGOs working alongside faith-based partners. Combining an interpretivist, practitioner-informed methodology at the intersection of IR, religion, and humanitarianism, Dr Intropido directly engaged with diplomats, humanitarian workers, and Church officials, offering both a new theoretical account of religious actors in world politics and a practical checklist for anyone partnering with Catholic humanitarian organisations.The Politics of Catholic NGO Networks will be essential reading for students and scholars of religion and politics, international relations, sociology and anthropology of religion, humanitarian, development, and migration studies, and for practitioners navigating the increasingly visible role of religion in global affairs.

The Politics of Catholic NGO Networks

Kein Junge wacht morgens auf und beschließt zu hassen. Die Täter werden jünger, die Gewalt brutaler, der Hass sichtbarer - auf Schulhöfen, in Innenstädten, in Chats und Kommentarspalten. Die Debatte beginnt meist erst nach der Tat. Nina Kolleck fragt: Was geschieht in den Jahren davor, und warum erkennen wir die Warnzeichen oft erst, wenn Wut bereits in Hass und Gewalt umschlägt?Die Bildungsforscherin zeigt, wie Jungen schon früh lernen, Verletzlichkeit zu verbergen, wie sich Kränkungen festsetzen und Einsamkeit wächst - und welchen Einfluss Familie, Schule, Peergroup und digitale Räume dabei haben. Sie folgt den Entwicklungslinien von der frühen Sozialisation über die Orte, an denen Jungen den Halt verlieren, bis zu dem Punkt, an dem sich Wut ein Ziel sucht - gegen Frauen, Minderheiten oder 'das System'.Gewalt ist kein Schicksal. Kolleck macht Warnzeichen als Veränderungsprozesse sichtbar - zunehmender Rückzug, Gereiztheit, Zynismus, die Fixierung auf 'Respekt' - und zeigt, was Familien, Schulen und Prävention tun können, um Jungen wieder zu erreichen. Was wie individuelles Versagen aussieht, ist ein gesellschaftliches Problem - und geht uns alle an.&nbsp;Ein hochaktuelles Sachbuch, das Zusammenhänge sichtbar macht - und Handlungsspielräume dort markiert, wo sie am meisten zählen: bevor es eskaliert. 
'Klug, fundiert und mit ganz viel Herz geschrieben. Danke für dieses wirklich wichtige Buch - wahrscheinlich eines der wichtigsten unserer Zeit!'&nbsp;Lukas Klaschinski

This book explores how digital acceleration and algorithmic mediation have transformed the temporal structure of modern journalism. It considers journalism to be a temporal institution that must balance speed with reflection and automation with human interpretation. Drawing on sociological theories, the book examines practices such as slow journalism and local storytelling, which seek to resist the culture of immediacy. Through qualitative research and case studies, the book puts forward the "downbeat" as a metaphor for reclaiming journalistic time - an alternative rhythm through which depth, resonance and ethical awareness can once again define the meaning and public value of news in the digital age.
