摘要

摘要：多年来，越南政府就可持续发展和旅游业增长的重要性发表了各种声明。企业旅游开发商迅速跟进，发表了类似的言论，一些社会学学者也发表了类似的言论--有时不加批判地宣传旅游业，有时则毫不掩饰地批评旅游业。本文基于在 COVID-19 之前和期间对越南东南海岸线还真地带赌场旅游开发的人种学观察，以及对政府声明、企业新闻和旅游管理中的宣传性社会学研究的密切评论。文章论述了赌场旅游的目标市场、规划、基础设施、相关行业工人的问题以及具有较长有毒历史的环境生态系统。在 COVID-19 之后，"可持续性 "的含义可能会在旅游经济的 "重启 "中受到质疑。

Rebooting Tourism in Vietnam: The Ho Tram Strip

Abstract: Over many years, the Government of Vietnam made various statements on the importance of sustainability and tourism sector growth. Corporate tourism developers quickly followed suit with similar rhetoric, as did some sociological scholarship—at times promoting tourism uncritically and sometimes critiquing it unapologetically. This article is based on ethnographic observations of casino tourism development along the Hồ Tràm strip on the South-eastern Vietnamese coastline, both before and during COVID-19, as well as close commentary monitoring government statements, corporate press, and promotional sociological studies within tourism management. The article addresses target markets for casino tourism, planning, infrastructure, issues for workers in associated sectors, and environmental ecosystems with longer, toxic histories. What 'sustainability' means after COVID-19 might be questioned in the 'rebooting' of the tourism economy.
