Abstract

Power is inherent in tourism development, shaping who defines place narratives, controls resources, and governs participation. While scholarship has moved beyond top-down/bottom-up binaries to adopt a relational view of power as co-produced and negotiated, two limitations remain: 1) emphasis on institutional and discursive dimensions over how power materializes through spatial design, and 2) treatment of historical legacies as background rather than active forces shaping resistance. As such, this paper examines the spatially-oriented micropolitics of tourism development on Teshima, a Japanese island transformed from an industrial dumping-ground into an art destination. Drawing on multi-method fieldwork, the study identifies three micropolitics: identity politics, spatial politics, and engagement politics that structure how residents subtly resist or reconfigure the externally imposed “art island” identity.

垃圾/艺术岛：旅游发展中的微观政治

权力在旅游发展中是固有的，它塑造了谁来定义地方叙事、控制资源和管理参与。虽然学术界已经超越了自上而下/自下而上的二元对立，采用了一种共同产生和协商的权力关系观，但仍然存在两个局限性：1)强调权力如何通过空间设计实现的制度和话语维度；2)将历史遗产视为背景，而不是塑造抵抗的积极力量。因此，本文考察了日本岛铁岛从工业垃圾场转变为艺术目的地的旅游发展的空间导向微观政治。通过多方法的田野调查，本研究确定了三种微观政治：身份政治、空间政治和参与政治，它们构成了居民如何巧妙地抵制或重新配置外部强加的“艺术岛”身份。

期刊介绍： The Annals of Tourism Research is a scholarly journal that focuses on academic perspectives related to tourism. The journal defines tourism as a global economic activity that involves travel behavior, management and marketing activities of service industries catering to consumer demand, the effects of tourism on communities, and policy and governance at local, national, and international levels. While the journal aims to strike a balance between theory and application, its primary focus is on developing theoretical constructs that bridge the gap between business and the social and behavioral sciences. The disciplinary areas covered in the journal include, but are not limited to, service industries management, marketing science, consumer marketing, decision-making and behavior, business ethics, economics and forecasting, environment, geography and development, education and knowledge development, political science and administration, consumer-focused psychology, and anthropology and sociology.
