Tourism Beyond AI

Smart Destinations, Immersive Technologies and Digital Futures

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.

This book helps community leaders identify the unique personality of a place, design strategies to maintain that place's authentic personality, and promote that personality to tourists and potential residents. Communities worldwide risk losing their soul-the distinctive character expressed through local stories, traditions, food, music, crafts, entertainment, and events. Business closures, homogenization, and imported retail also threaten community character. Since "authentic experiences" are among the primary motivations for traveling, this loss of distinctiveness can also have economic implications. Maintaining the balance between preservation and promotion, between residents and visitors, becomes more critical for community well-being. Some communities explore local characteristics as a branding opportunity and attract new residents, focusing on their authentic historic and cultural assets to provide immersive experiences. Other communities use placemaking and placekeeping to retain their unique character. Drawn from the author's extensive travel and work in the U.S. and around the world, Personality of Place illustrates various solutions to saving and sharing a community's diverse character and explores how communities can enhance their personalities through the often-intangible assets that distinguish them from neighboring places. Using more than 50 case studies from the United States and other countries, this instructive and informative book offers specific strategies for retaining a sense of place and leveraging this distinctive "personality" as the basis for a community's cultural and economic prosperity.

Malgré la diminution de l'accidentalité des deux-roues motorisés, leur sécurité demeure un enjeu majeur. Pour y répondre, chercheurs, industriels et pouvoirs publics développent des travaux sur les comportements, les technologies, les équipements de protection et les infrastructures. Créée en 2015 avec le soutien de la DSR, l'action COSMOS (Connaissances Scientifiques pour les MOtocycleS) fédère la communauté scientifique autour des enjeux liés aux motocyclistes et favorise la diffusion des connaissances. À la suite des colloques de 2019 et 2022, une troisième édition s'est tenue en 2024 à Marne-la-Vallée. Cet ouvrage en présente les principales contributions, consacrées à l'accidentologie, à la dynamique du véhicule et aux équipements de sécurité. Il s'adresse aux acteurs de la sécurité routière, aux usagers des deux roues motorisés et à tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux avancées de la recherche dans le domaine du motocycle.

The Business of Sustainable Tourism Development and Management

How Tourism, Sports, and Entertainment Are Changing the Way the World Works (and Plays)

Pioneers a conceptual blend of performance studies and linguistic anthropology to decode the vital 'backstage' spaces that sustain frontstage tourist encounters at the grassroots level This book presents an ethnographic study of tourism and cultural change at Diani Beach on Kenya's southern coast. It examines how tourism is performed across different spaces - including beaches, hotels, heritage sites and pubs - and analyses the relationship between frontstage performances visible to tourists and backstage practices that sustain local communities. Drawing on postcolonial theory, performance studies, linguistic anthropology and tourism studies, it explores how colonial legacies continue to shape tourism while highlighting the agency, multilingual creativity and everyday strategies of beach operators. The volume contributes to debates on tourism, cultural change and decolonisation by demonstrating how tourism simultaneously reproduces structural inequalities and creates spaces for negotiation, resistance and cultural innovation. It is a useful resource for researchers, teachers and students in social and cultural anthropology, tourism studies, African studies and postcolonial studies.
