Abstract

ABSTRACT A huge number of climate change adaptation projects are underway to manage risk and minimise vulnerability for communities and businesses. Yet, adaptation processes are often ineffective because of deeply entrenched structures of power and different value systems leading to conflicting priorities for action. This paper draws on the notion of cultural politics to understand climate change adaptation in the tourism sector of Aotearoa New Zealand, a sector that depends on the environment for its survival but neglects it for short-term gains, often precipitating maladaptation in the process. Building on insights into how and why the tourism industry – in a pre-COVID19 context – struggled to adapt to the urgent imperatives of climate change, the paper goes on to show how a culture-centred, deliberative democratic approach can be applied to identify pathways for a transition to an environmentally sustainable tourism sector that can adapt to a climate-changed and pandemic-affected world.
适应气候变化的文化政治:对新西兰奥特罗阿旅游业的分析
摘要大量的气候变化适应项目正在进行中,以管理风险,最大限度地减少社区和企业的脆弱性。然而,由于根深蒂固的权力结构和不同的价值体系导致行动优先事项相互冲突,适应进程往往无效。本文利用文化政治的概念来理解新西兰奥特亚旅游业的气候变化适应,该行业依赖环境生存,但为了短期利益而忽视环境,往往在这个过程中引发适应不良。在深入了解旅游业在2019冠状病毒病之前如何以及为什么难以适应气候变化的紧迫性的基础上,该论文继续展示了以文化为中心,可以采用审慎民主的方法来确定向环境可持续的旅游业转型的途径,以适应气候变化和受疫情影响的世界。
