Book Tourism Recreation and Regional Development

Download or read book Tourism Recreation and Regional Development written by Jean-Christophe Dissart and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What factors contribute to tourism and recreation development? How can we characterise stakeholder rationales and organisation modes to enhance tourism resources and foster tourism and recreation services? To what extent do tourism and recreation contribute to regional development? What changes are taking place in terms of new destinations, stakeholders, policy objectives? Bringing together scholars from the fields of planning, economics, sociology, management studies and geography, this book examines cross-cutting issues in tourism and recreation with the aim of developing an extended view of leisure time. Focusing mainly on France with comparison to the experience of Northern and Southern European countries and North America, it combines a diverse range of case studies to address issues such as contrasting rural dynamics, changing public policies, sustainable development imperatives, evolving user behaviour and increasingly diverse recreation activities and stakeholder organisation. Specific topics are highlighted, such as the role of social capital or culture as factors of recreation development; resort organisation from international and experience-based perspectives; and the usefulness of the capability approach to evaluate tourism impacts on local development. Emphasising policy recommendations to help public or collective action on the issues and presenting emerging trends in the field, this book should be of interest to students, scholars and stakeholders in tourism/recreation planning and management.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis, (CINDAS) *at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity was transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 19 (thesis year 1974) a total of 10,045 theses titles from 20 Canadian and 209 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. The organization of Volume 19 is identical to that of past years. It consists of theses titles arranged by discipline and by university within each discipline.

Book The Economic Field of Dreams Analyzing the Local Economic Development Potential of Sports Tourism

Download or read book The Economic Field of Dreams Analyzing the Local Economic Development Potential of Sports Tourism written by Eric J. Harper and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Local economic development organizations use a variety of project and program types to stimulate local economic growth. Recently, many local economic developers have evaluated amateur sports tourism as a local economic stimulus. This thesis studies the economic benefits of one such tourism-based economic development project, the proposed Placer Valley Sports Complex in Placer County, California. The sponsors of the project, a local hotel group, seek to increase hotel visits in the Placer Valley area by creating and operating an amateur sports complex. Because of the substantial costs of the sports complex, and the potential economic benefits the complex could bring to the local region, it is important that project decision-makers fully study and evaluate the potential costs and benefits of the project. I study the economic benefits of the Placer Valley Sports Complex through input-output analysis using the IMPLAN model. The IMPLAN model is a commercial input-output model that synthesizes industrial input and output, labor, and tax data and enables researchers, analysts, and consultants to estimate the economic impacts of outside changes to local economies. Using secondary source visitor-spending surveys and estimated visitor counts, I used the IMPLAN model to estimate the economic impacts of the proposed sports complex. I projected the multiyear costs of the project, and compared them to the economic benefits of the project, using the design, construction, and maintenance cost data from the project sponsors. My results indicate that the Placer Valley Sports Complex could generate an estimated $28.8 to $91.7 million in net present value for Placer County over a 30-year period. However, because of several factors that could affect actual visitor spending related to the sports complex, there is potential that the actual economic benefits of the complex could be lower than I estimated. Sports complex sponsors need to further analyze visitor count estimates relative to the local sports market and conduct local visitor-spending surveys to fully address visitor spending uncertainty. Sports complex sponsors also need to identify a dedicated revenue source to finance the project, and there are financial, legal, and political problems that may inhibit project financing. Because of the complicated nature of economic impact analysis, and the various financial, political, and social issues involved with the Placer Valley Sports Complex, this thesis highlights the need for local policy makers to rigorously study and evaluate economic development project proposals.
