Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper develops a new theoretical framework for understanding rural spatial change under the creative destruction of rural commodification and tourist consumption activities. In the context of tourism as creative destruction, place making is used as a theoretical tool to elaborate on positive spatial change in rural areas, and resilience is regarded as a new perspective for rural change management to capture the good adaptive cycle of this place making. The findings from a review of the literature on tourism as creative destruction, place making, and resilience are that maintaining a strong sense of the rural idyll and incessantly transforming innovative spaces into quality places in a resilient cycle of adaptation are the core of place making under tourism as creative destruction. These findings further suggest that continual innovation and the adaptive cycle are the main factors to consider when applying the notion of resilience in change management to the overall framework and deriving managerial implications from tourism as creative destruction and the transformation of space in rural areas.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Tourism and Cultural Change ( JTCC ) is a peer-reviewed, transdisciplinary and transnational journal. It focuses on critically examining the relationships, tensions, representations, conflicts and possibilities that exist between tourism/travel and culture/cultures in an increasingly complex global context. JTCC provides a forum for debate against the backdrop of local, regional, national and transnational understandings of identity and difference. Economic restructuring, recognitions of the cultural dimension of biodiversity and sustainable development, contests regarding the positive and negative impact of patterns of tourist behaviour on cultural diversity, and transcultural strivings - all provide an important focus for JTCC . Global capitalism, in its myriad forms engages with multiple ''ways of being'', generating new relationships, re-evaluating existing, and challenging ways of knowing and being. Tourists and the tourism industry continue to find inventive ways to commodify, transform, present/re-present and consume material culture. JTCC seeks to widen and deepen understandings of such changing relationships and stimulate critical debate by: -Adopting a multidisciplinary approach -Encouraging deep and critical approaches to policy and practice -Embracing an inclusive definition of culture -Focusing on the concept, processes and meanings of change -Encouraging trans-national/transcultural perspectives
