Abstract

Until the end of WW2, the Margaret River region (MRR) was a popular domestic destination based on cave explorations. A series of incremental innovations between the 1950s and 1990s reconfigured the destination into a thriving international tourism destination that offers diverse experiences based on wine, surf, and nature. Nonetheless, contemporary external and internal forces are stimulating another shift – one towards sustainability. Apart from the global pro-sustainability agenda, this sustainability transition in tourism is mainly driven by two emerging niches: eco-accreditation and grassroots organisations. This paper adopts the multilevel perspective (MLP) – a commonly adopted framework in the sustainability transitions research field – and combines it with a typology of tourism innovation to examine the evolution of the MRR as a tourist destination. The paper addresses the ongoing sustainability transition in the MRR and discusses both top-down and bottom-up initiatives that stimulate it. In order to provide a holistic view of this transition, the paper also pays attention to the first transition in the destination (i.e. from caves to wine, surf, and nature), and examines its influence on the ongoing sustainability transition. As such, this paper aims to help bridge the gap between tourism geography and the interdisciplinary field of sustainability transitions.

从利基到制度:多元化旅游目的地的可持续性转型
直到第二次世界大战结束,玛格丽特河地区(MRR)是一个受欢迎的国内目的地,基于洞穴探险。在20世纪50年代至90年代之间,一系列渐进式创新将目的地重新配置为一个蓬勃发展的国际旅游目的地,提供基于葡萄酒,冲浪和自然的多样化体验。尽管如此,当前的外部和内部力量正在刺激另一种转变——向可持续性的转变。除了全球可持续发展议程外,旅游业的可持续发展转型主要由两个新兴利基推动:生态认证和基层组织。本文采用可持续性转型研究领域普遍采用的多层次视角(MLP),并结合旅游创新类型学来考察旅游目的地的演变。本文讨论了MRR中正在进行的可持续性转变,并讨论了刺激这一转变的自上而下和自下而上的举措。为了提供这种转变的整体观点,本文还关注了目的地的第一次转变(即从洞穴到葡萄酒,冲浪和自然),并研究了其对正在进行的可持续性转变的影响。因此,本文旨在帮助弥合旅游地理学与可持续性转型跨学科领域之间的差距。
