Scientific knowledge, they argued is premised on the basis of observations and incremental reasoning of the natural world (Gower, 1997). The sense of what it means to be human – freedom, ethics, personal and societal values and an effort to understand our place in the universe – not only do not require the presence of a God or Gods, but in arguing that we can devolve responsibility for our rationale thinking to religious belief, we are trusting in a ‘religious method [that] is refuted by its failure’ (Stenger in INCH, 2014). Science and the scientific method have long been recognised as one of the foundational disciplines of tourism knowledge (Tribe & Liburd, 2016; Urano et al., 2022). Schweinsberg (2023) has built on this disciplinary framework in this special issue, arguing that religious faith can serve as a values-based meta narrative governing an academic’s sense of self as they seek to engage with different disciplinary perspectives. What he did not consider, however, was how academics who have a religious faith might engage constructively with tourism practices, which conflict with their own faithbased perspective. Could I as a person of faith argue that abortion tourism should be developed in a particular destination, so long as it adheres to a particular political regulatory framework? Similarly, could I recommend the establishment/ expansion of a redlight district in a township if I could prove its economic value for the region? Hollinshead (2010) once asked the Academy to look beyond its traditional colonialist and economic framings and embrace a truly post-disciplinary interpretation of knowledge. This paper asks a follow-on question; how can new knowledge producers reconcile their idea of ‘truth’ to the rationalist socio-political and economic imperatives upon which the tourism industry still ultimately relies? Tourism scholars are frequently asked to critically investigate forms of tourism, which can be seen by many in society to be ethically suspect including sex tourism, child sex tourism, suicide tourism, fertility/ reproductive tourism, abortion tourism, and slum tourism. The economic importance of such industries is well documented in particular destination localities (e.g. Brooks & Heaslip, 2019; Guiney & Mostafanezhad, 2015). However, underpinning all of the afore mentioned tourism sectors are also wider societal issues regarding: the sanctity of life; cultural stigmatisation; the marginalisation of the ‘other’, respect or disrespect of privacy, and unequal power relations; all of which religious institutions have strong, often negative opinions on (e.g. Huschke & Schubotz, 2016; Masci, 2016). Carr (2016) suggests with respect to sex tourism that academics should find ways to engage with conten","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"40 1","pages":"627 - 629"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85763641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Darcy","doi":"10.1080/02508281.2023.2207152","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/02508281.2023.2207152","url":null,"abstract":"People with disabilities (PwD) are a COVID-19 vulnerable group, and globally they are experiencing even higher rates of social exclusion than before the pandemic. Value co-creation is a process whereby firms and their customers work together to develop service offerings and provides a tool for service improvement during disruptions such as health crises. Although many cultural and tourist attractions have access and inclusion as part of their strategic plans not all of them have turned to value co-creation to address access and inclusion in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. They also have varying degrees of understandings about what facilitates social inclusion. Using Critical Discourse Analysis, this study explores how museums have addressed access and inclusion in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the degree of uptake, discourses of value co-creation, and how their responses can be categorised. The research design included semi-structured, participatory interviews with 15 managers from eight museums;and ethnographic observation and semi-structured, post-museum visit interviews with 12 PwD. Then, an iterative data analysis process using ATLAS-ti was undertaken. The results provide insight into the social inclusion of PwD in museums during the COVID-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"195 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73951833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the anthropology of tourism had once sustained a revival, disciplinary inertia suggests a renewal is again overdue and anthropology might justify a reconstruction. The possibilities of tourism as ‘study’ perhaps remain unfulfilled, despite significant antecedents in Malcolm Crick’s work, where anthropology exactly glosses as travel plus study. This builds upon the desire to know worlds, to contribute to human togetherness across differences, economic disparity, languages, faiths, and political inclinations. Thus, calling for engagement with the political, postcolonial, and ontological concepts of anthropology, including multi-site ‘fieldwork’ methodologies, reanimates tourism studies via the critical idealism of study as priority for anthropologists, workers and tourists. Alongside questions of privilege, re-booting tourism studies through anthropology in the service of knowledge posits tourism as much more than study tours, finding out about heritage sites, or guides with stories to tell. Crick’s credo of ‘going to have a look for yourself’ could be a rallying cry for participatory ethnography in tourism. In a more vulnerable world, anticipating future ethnographic work in Vietnam, the paper seeks insights and opportunities for a new engagement in the study of anthropology as tourism studies and tourism more widely.","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"24 1","pages":"582 - 592"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89607111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is the most popular visitor snorkelling experience on the island of O'ahu. A social carrying capacity study was conducted upon reopening, following a nine-month COVID-19 closure due to travel restrictions. Surveys were compared to three prior surveys conducted between 1990 and 2002 to provide a larger historical context of social dynamics and perceived human impacts over time. Demographics, recreational activities, crowding perceptions, and educational availability were assessed. Visitor activity photos and counts were evaluated in context with survey responses. Perceived visitor contact on the reef was compared to in situ snorkelling impact. These quantitative observations reported an average of one reef disturbance for every two individuals. Photographic analysis of breakage of selected baseline corals prior to closure were compared to corals following reopening of the preserve in 2021. Partial mortality occurred in 60% of coral colonies. Successful management policies that include social carrying capacities should align with biological carrying capacities to balance the health of the ecosystem with a positive experience for visitors. These management strategies provide a holistic approach to advance conservation and meet visitor satisfaction goals. © 2023 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87382669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many find themselves in different faculties, colleges, and schools, doing their jobs based on values determined by their institutional belonging, but also based on their personal beliefs, and educational backgrounds. This interplay of academic roles is important because it creates worlds, real and imagined, that students, colleagues, and community members build theirs from. Worlds are made and evaluated quite naturally, they form and are formed by the academics’ values in interplay with the values of their contexts. Each tourism academic should therefore ask themselves: Why is tourism taught? This question might highlight vulnerabilities and viabilities of tourism studies. This article presents an investigation of tourism degrees offered at universities in the five Nordic countries. The data exposes what values dominate tourism education, but the significance of the argument in this paper arises from the theoretical framework, which is an axiological development of Jafar Jafari’s original Platforms model and its later adaptions. The conclusion drawn is that current tourism studies ought to be enriched axiologically, rather than ontologically or epistemologically.","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"20 1","pages":"569 - 581"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78203646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through epistemological/methodological blends of compatible arguments from the sociology of knowledge (Karl Mannheim's notion of world-vision or Weltanschauung, which emphasises planetary ways of knowing), the new mobilities paradigm (Sheller's suggestion that such ‘knowing' also produces often competing positionalities and communities in research) and scholarship on the worldmaking powers of tourism (Hollinshead's and Hollinshead and Suleman's suggestion that knowing about tourism comes to life when it is enunciated as a reality), it investigates ‘affective refrains': recurring scholarly discourses about crises in the sector, which are endowed with affective qualities (Felix Guattari’s approach to preconscious formations of feelings). Such refrains, which are both prepersonal and structured like collective imaginaries, shed light on the core ethical and moral universes that are supported by their authors. Whereas the nature of the themes covered by these authors is the modus operandi of the scholarly community to which they claim membership. But more importantly, the styles they use to intensify the attention of audiences/readerships to these styles organises the powers of affective persuasion into a paradigm.","PeriodicalId":47549,"journal":{"name":"Tourism Recreation Research","volume":"161 1","pages":"605 - 615"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88005239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
