This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le tourisme international engendre une exportation particulière où seuls les clients se déplacent. La thèse étudie la problématique de la croissance tirée par le tourisme international en considérant cette spécificité de l'exportation touristique. La recherche s'attache à caractériser la dynamique de long terme entre la fréquentation touristique et le revenu par tête. Dans un cadre d'équilibre général, différents contextes sont modélisés: économie uni-sectorielle et bi-sectorielle; mécanique de croissance par accumulation du capital (physique privé et public) et par innovation. L'effet de la fréquentation sur la croissance de long terme est doublement traité: via un flux exogène (suivant le Tourism Area Life Cycle selon Butler, 1980) puis endogène (au capital public et contraint par les capacités de réception). Chaque contexte dégage des résultats spécifiques. De la mécanique d'accumulation dans un cadre uni-sectoriel émerge une équation explicative du revenu par tête lié directement à la fréquentation touristique. L'expérience de la Caraïbe valide la modélisation. L'économie bi-sectorielle démontre que les effets de spécialisation du flux touristique reposent sur les caractères technologiques du bien consommé par les visiteurs. La croissance à base touristique par accumulation du capital public ou par innovation génère un effet d'échelle lié à la taille de l'espace économique. L'exercice du pouvoir de marché des destinations est une conséquence du Tourism Led Growth. II doit être compensé par le progrès technique ou les effets de productivité du travail du capital public. La contribution théorique de la thèse dépasse les résultats spécifiques de chaque modélisation. Elle qualifie la croissance tirée par le tourisme international de croissance endogène, majoritairement caractérisée par un taux de croissance du revenu par tête qui diminue dans le temps.

Download or read book The Role of Binational Entrepreneurs as Social and Economic Bridge Builders Between Europe and North Africa written by Fatima Lahnait and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the role of binational entrepreneurs as social and economic bridge builders between Europe and North Africa is to show academics and practitioners the importance of the role of European bi-nationals. It contains chapters by professional practitioners from a number of countries and businesses, and from journalists and security agency members. The main issues discussed are the principle features of successful integration of North African immigrants into French and Spanish societies and the causes and symptoms of dysfunctional integration; how a partnership network can be established between the Maghreb diaspora in France and Spain and their parent countries, what the obstacles of such a network are and what can be used to develop it; how emigrants of dual nationality are viewed in their countries of origin and how the process of social reintegration can be assured; if dual nationals can play a role in giving an impetus to economic growth in North African countries and if France and Spain can adopt measures to facilitate this process; the respective roles of government and NGOs and international organizations; and how relevant the lessons are that can be learned from this case study to the relationships between other immigrant populations and their host countries. This book includes some suggestions for action discussed in the workshop prior to this publication.

Download or read book The Perraults written by Oded Rabinovitch and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Perraults, Oded Rabinovitch takes the fascinating eponymous literary and scientific family as an entry point into the complex and rapidly changing world of early modern France. Today, the Perraults are best remembered for their canonical fairy tales, such as "Cinderella" and "Puss in Boots," most often attributed to Charles Perrault, one of the brothers. While the writing of fairy tales may seem a frivolous enterprise, it was, in fact, linked to the cultural revolution of the seventeenth century, which paved the way for the scientific revolution, the rise of "national literatures," and the early Enlightenment. Rabinovitch argues that kinship networks played a crucial, yet unexamined, role in shaping the cultural and intellectual ferment of the day, which in turn shaped kinship and the social history of the family. Through skillful reconstruction of the Perraults’ careers and networks, Rabinovitch portrays the world of letters as a means of social mobility. He complicates our understanding of prominent institutions, such as the Academy of Sciences, Versailles, and the salons, as well as the very notions of authorship and court capitalism. The Perraults shows us that institutions were not simply rigid entities, embodying or defining intellectual or literary styles such as Cartesianism, empiricism, or the purity of the French language. Rather, they emerge as nodes that connect actors, intellectual projects, family strategies, and practices of writing.

This updated edition updates the text and includes several new narratives and a new chapter about American students' experiences during summer field school and home stays in Barbados.

Download or read book Last Resorts written by Polly Pattullo and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2005-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Caribbean has the fortune—and the misfortune̬to be everyone's idea of a tropical paradise. Its sun, sand and scenery attract millions of visitors each year and make it a profitable destination for the world's fastest growing industry. Tourism is increasingly touted as its only hope of creating jobs and wealth—literally, the island's last resort. Last Resorts examines the real impact of tourism on the people and landscape of the Caribbean. It explores the structure of ownership of the industry and shows that the benefits it brings to the region do not live up to its claims. New developments in ecotourism, sex tourism, and the burgeoning cruise industry are not changing this pattern of short-term exploitation of the region's resources. The book shows how Caribbean societies are corrupted by tourism and its culture turned into floorshow parody. This new edition has been extensively revised and updated. It gives voice to people inside the tourism industry, its critics, and tourists themselves, and offers vital insights into a phenomenon that is central to the globalized world of today.

Download or read book Tourism and Development in the Developing World written by David J. Telfer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism is widely considered to be an important factor in socio-economic development, particularly in less developed countries. However, despite almost universal recognition of tourism’s development potential, the extent to which economic and social progress is linked to the growth of a country’s tourism sector remains the subject of intense debate. Tourism and Development in the Developing World offers a thorough overview of the tourism-development relationship. Focusing specifically on the less developed world and drawing on contemporary case studies, this updated second edition questions widely-held assumptions on the role of tourism in development and seeks to highlight the challenges faced by destinations seeking to achieve development through tourism. The introductory chapter establishes the foundation for the book, exploring the meaning and objectives of development, reviewing theoretical perspectives on the developmental process, and assessing the reasons why less developed countries are attracted to tourism as a development option. The concept of sustainable development, as the most widely adopted contemporary model of development, is then introduced and its links with tourism critically assessed. Subsequent chapters explore the key issues associated with tourism and development, including the rise of globalization; the tourism planning and development process; the relationship between tourism and communities within which it is developed; the management implications of trends in the demand for and uptake of tourism; and an analysis of the consequences of tourism development for destination environments, economies and societies. A new chapter considers the challenges of climate change, sustainability of resource supply (oil, water and food), global economic instability, political instability and changing demographics. Finally, the issues raised throughout the book are drawn together in a concluding chapter that assesses the tourism and development ‘dilemma’. Combining an overview of essential concepts, theories and knowledge with an analysis of contemporary issues and debates in tourism and development, this new edition will be an invaluable resource for those investigating tourism issues in developing countries. The book will be of interest to students of tourism, development, geography and area studies, international relations and politics, and sociology.
