Download or read book Second Home Tourism in Europe written by Zoran Roca and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together a wide range of studies from twelve European countries, this book offers a state-of-the-art overview of the driving forces behind spatial diversity and social complexity inherent in second home expansion in all parts of the continent - from Scandinavia to the Mediterranean and from the British Isles to Russia - in the context of contemporary mobility patterns largely induced by tourism. As befits the overall conception of the book as a compendium of current second home research, planning and policy issues, the book endorses the following: multidisciplinary approaches to the second home phenomenon as an expression of the ’leisure class’ mobility and recreation-based lifestyles, as well as a constitutive element of post-productivist land-use patterns and landscape change; and socio-economic and territorial development planning and policy-related perspectives on social change and spatial re-organization provoked by the expansion of second home tourism in times of prosperity and crisis. ’This book shows that second home tourism has become such an important sector of the economy that it is no longer possible to let it develop freely: it is the source of new forms of social deprivation; it generates residential economies that are particularly sensitive to the economic cycle; it often impairs beautiful landscapes and increases human pressure on natural environments. As a result, it is one of the major physical planning stakes of touristic areas’ (From the concluding essay by Paul Claval, Université de Paris I - Sorbonne, Paris, France).

This book was released on 2014-03-03 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta obra recoge una miscelánea de artículos de autores españoles y brasileños sobre desarrollo regional que demuestran que, en este aspecto, las experiencias de ambos países son cada vez más semejantes. Aunque el sistema socioeconómico imperante se basa en postulados neoliberales, con una disminución del papel de los estados en las tendencias del desarrollo, todavía perviven políticas regionales subsidiadas con fondos públicos que se resisten a desaparecer. Esta aseveración es válida tanto para España como para Brasil y puede aplicarse, en general, a toda Europa y América Latina. Medamérica, desde su fundación hace ya veinte años, ha tenido como objetivo tender puentes académicos entre Barcelona y América Latina mediante la publicación de libros, la organización de seminarios internacionales, la creación de convenios entre la Universidad de Barcelona y diversas instituciones de Brasil y México, y la realización de más de treinta tesis de doctorado.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Côte d'Ivoire, or the Ivory Coast, is a country located in West Africa that borders the Gulf of Guinea. It is known for being the world's largest producer of cocoa beans, as well as for its vibrant cultural heritage. The country is home to over 25 million people, with the majority of the population being of African descent. The official language of Côte d'Ivoire is French, although local languages such as Baoulé, Dioula, and Anyin are also spoken. Côte d'Ivoire has a rich history that dates back to pre-colonial times. The country was first colonized by the French in the late 19th century and gained independence in 1960. Since then, it has experienced periods of political instability, including a civil war that lasted from 2002 to 2011. Despite these challenges, Côte d'Ivoire has continued to develop its economy, which is largely driven by agriculture, including the production of coffee, cocoa, and palm oil. The country has also made progress in areas such as education and healthcare, although poverty and inequality persist in many parts of the country.
