Sustainability communication plays an essential role in informing tourists about the availability of sustainable products and in addressing them to choosing eco-friendly experiences, as well as in sharing awareness and responsibility within tourist operators about the urgent need to improve the sustainability of tourism offers. The European Tourism Indicator System for sustainable destinations (ETIS) looks a tool able to provide a holistic approach to improve the sustainable management of European tourism destinations, by encouraging stakeholder engagement and monitoring processes. Moving from the conceptual framework of the sustainable tourism, this qualitative study investigates the role of communication as a key strategy related to the ETIS’ implementation in the South of Sardinia, Italy, among the various stakeholders involved in it. Considering that research in sustainability communication and the ETIS outcomes are scarce, this study aims to contribute to filling this gap. The findings show clear weaknesses in the ETIS communication and stakeholders’ engagement, particularly at local level, and in the appropriation of the results. The study suggests to improving communication as a strategic lever to involve tourism operators and tourists while implementing sustainable actions like the ETIS, and to share the knowledgecreated, both at local and international level.

The aim of this article is to present and analyze two highly popular types of tourism, the all-inclusive resorts and cruises, and examine whether they can be considered as sustainable. It acknowledges the importance of the perception of the local community and its participation in the management and practice of tourism in their region. Moreover, it aims at presenting and understanding how local communities view the functioning of specific types of tourism in their area and to which degree modern communities, experiencing the intense presence of tourism, manage to comprehend the actual concept of sustainability and its application in the tourism sector. For that purpose a case study was undertaken on the island of Corfu, because of the strong presence of the all-inclusive resorts and cruises on the island and the importance of this area as a tourism destination. In order to get the perspective of the Corfu community regarding the presence of cruises and all-inclusive resorts on the island, questionnaires were distributed in a sample of locals. The data collected by the questionnaires enabled us to reach important conclusions regarding the perception of residents about the concept of tourism sustainability.

UniOn is an application for smartphone and tablets developed within ILOCALAPP (www.ilocalapp.eu), a European project coordinated by the University of Bologna. UniOn exists in four versions, one for each city involved in the project (Bologna, Coimbra, Poznan and Rovaniemi), and it is meant to foster the incidental learning of the language and the culture related to the city (respectively, Italian, Portuguese, Polish and Finnish). The fruition and the understanding of the contents (reading, listening, etc.) directly in the places let the users get in touch with aspects of language and culture in an implicit, non intentional way. UniOn has been created to cope with the specific needs of international students living a mobility experience, but it has become soon an interesting tool also for other typologies of travellers (high-school students, university students coming from other cities, tourists, migrants). In this article we will illustrate the main app features and its development based on a user-centred design approach. We will focus upon the Bologna version of the app to show how the app is being used, and how both the city and the users’ experience of the city play a crucial role.

Considering the importance of destination market segmentation as an influential marketing effort for identifying and understanding segments’ psychological characteristics, the present study investigates the differences of inbound visitors' who attend to the grand bazaar of Tehran city. Factor analysis of the data extracted fifteen motivation and lifestyle factors, which the process was perfect by using cluster analysis. The findings indicated four types of inbound visitors: ‘Ideal-sense seekers’, ‘Special aspiring visitors’, ‘Middle want vacationers’, ‘Principled behavior enthusiasts’. A chi-square test was applied to compare four groups for independence analysis based on the types as well as the visitors' socio-demographic profiles. The socio-demographic profiles of respondents indicated statistically significant differences between the four clusters in terms of gender, age, travel companions, and previous trips to Tehran grand bazaar. Since the motivations and lifestyle would potentially influence their decision-making style in particular holiday destination and its related products and services, the study investigated the distribution of the decision-making style dimensions to every classified segment to understanding the decision-making styles of groups. Combining motivation and lifestyle dimensions in the form of segmentation analysis allows researchers and managers to identify specific types of tourists groups for targeted marketing campaigns specifically directed promotion programs in the context of cultural tourism.

One of the key priorities of the Cultural Routes programme of the Council of Europe is intercultural dialogue. The resolution of the Council of Ministers no. 67 (2013) indicated that an overriding strategic goal of the Council was to “promote dialogue and understanding between majority and minority, native and immigrant cultures . ” It linked this general principle to two other documents regarding strategic policy for the Council of Europe: the White Paper on Intercultural Dialogue entitled “Living Together As Equals in Dignity” (White Paper on Intercultural Dialogue, 2008) and the Convention on the Value of Cultural Heritage for Society, otherwise known as the “Faro Convention” (Council of Europe Framework Convention, 2005). These general principles were adopted by the Council of Europe Advisory Forum of the Cultural Routes in Baku in 2014, whose closing declaration included an exhortation that the cultural routes should act as “ vectors of intercultural dialogue” (Baku Declaration (2014). This paper will look at the way the ATRIUM cultural route has attempted to interpret and implement this strategic goal.

This paper examines how the Phoenicians’ Route acts as a framework for intercultural dialogue in today’s Mediterranean. Particular reference is made to tourism in the region, with a focus on Malta. The paper refers to recent aspects of the route’s development in the field of intangible heritage. It focuses on those elements of intangible heritage that accompany, reveal and highlight the social relevance of heritage by highlighting the appreciation accorded by Mediterranean communities to artefacts, sites and monuments that are part of the route. It emphasises the educational and social elements of the actions supported by the route in relation to intercultural dialogue, looking at how this practice relates to other cultural manifestations. This paper pays special attention to the inter-relation between tourism activities and cultural expression in Malta, a recent member of the route. Furthermore, special attention is given to the annual Malta Mediterranean Literature Festival, in order to study the way the approach towards research about the Phoenicians supported by the route is applied in the framework of the Festival. The paper notes how the Festival links past and present by seeking inspiration from historical episodes of intercultural dialogue in the Mediterranean and applying them to the contemporary needs of artistic, cultural, political and social exchange within the Mediterranean space.

Special events, if well organized, assist a tourism destination to improve its image and to attract new visitors. Though there is an emerging research on the connection between tourism destinations and fashion events, very few is known about how online presence of tourism destinations is framed with the help of established fashion events. The purpose of this research is to study four primary destinations holding their respective major fashion weeks accordingly: New York and “New York Fashion Week”, London and “London Fashion Week”, Milan and “Milan Fashion Week”, Paris and “Paris Fashion Week”. This research identifies the role of tourism destinations in the online presence of the four primary “fashion weeks”. To do so, two converging analyzes are done: on one hand, the websites and online presence of the fashion weeks are analyzed, to assess tourism related content; on the other hand, the websites of Destination Management Organizations at the city level are inspected, to assess the presence and relevance they provide to fashion weeks.

Roma e stata nel corso dei secoli uno dei piu importanti poli di attrazione del turismo internazionale, per motivi di ordine storico, culturale, religioso. Nel corso dell'eta moderna, soprattutto dal Settecento quando la citta divenne una delle tappe imprescindibili dei viaggiatori del Gran Tour , i ricchi visitatori stranieri iniziarono a scoprire anche i prodotti dell'artigianato artistico romano quali riproduzioni in copia di pitture e sculture, piccoli oggetti e monili in mosaico, cammei e pietre incise, ecc. Nei primi decenni dell'Ottocento, l'incremento della domanda turistica per l'artigianato di lusso spinse alcuni orafi ad abbandonare la produzione di gioielli di gusto esterofilo (che fino ad allora aveva caratterizzato l'oreficeria romana finalizzata ad intercettare la domanda locale) e a produrre oggetti il cui valore aggiunto risiedesse nel contenuto artistico e culturale ispirato alla tradizione orafa italiana. I primi orafi ad innovare l'oreficeria romana furono i Castellani che inventarono la cosiddetta “oreficeria archeologica”, riscuotendo un immediato successo tra i facoltosi turisti, artisti e intellettuali che nel corso dell’Ottocento visitarono la citta di Roma. Il paper intende ricostruire la vicenda dei Castellani e le strategie imprenditoriali adottate per ottenere un prodotto orafo capace di sedurre il gusto dei consumatori stranieri che divennero anche un tramite per la conquista del mercato internazionale.

In the last decades a large number of Italian tourist destinations have become increasingly popular thanks to the growth of purchase as a consolidated habit of collective tourism, and to the identification of many sites as upscale shopping centers. For such resorts, this trend has turned into a tool for promotion comparable to art, landscape and food. This phenomenon developed in particular in Capri, Ischia and Positano, where between the Fifties and Sixties, thanks to the initiative of local artisans or shrewd foreigner visitors, tailor’s shops, boutiques and workshops were created in response to the customers’ requests for clothes and accessories tuned to the native ‘style’. The authenticity of this process was originally guaranteed by the strong consolidated artisan tradition of the sites and found a favorable conjuncture in the fact that in the middle of the century fashion was combined with tourism and cinema to help Italy out of the post-war crisis. Thanks to its folklore and natural landscape heritage connected to the beauty of its coast, Naples acted as a main trigger for this project: it boasted suitable productive, cultural and economic conditions to aspire to become the "capital of fashion in southern Italy" and Capri, Ischia and Positano were the ideal stages through which the new facet of Italian creativity could be conveyed.
