ABSTRACT This paper forwards a promising philosophically-based agent for treating busyness/enframing, a characteristic of contemporary society marked by predominately seeing entities in terms of their usefulness, efficiency, and productivity. The proposed agent combines Josef Pieper’s conceptualisation of intellectus-based leisure with Martin Heidegger’s notion of aletheia. The subsequent combination enables people to unveil deeper, fuller comprehensions of phenomena, especially when they perform contemplative seeing. While it is too early for issuing claims regarding leisure’s effectiveness, it is not premature to identify recreation professionals, expressly those who enrich their existing expertise with knowledge of aletheia and the ability to teach contemplative seeing, as qualified for addressing busyness/enframing.

ABSTRACT In the last two decades, Brazil has hosted some of the world’s greatest sports events, the Pan American Games (2007), the FIFA World Cup (2014), and the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games (2016). Thus, dealing with the funding for sports and leisure in Brazil, this article aims to study the public funding of sport and leisure in Brazil at the state level and test the adherence of state funding for sport and leisure to the theory of punctuated equilibrium. This quantitative research was based on data regarding resources allocated by the Brazilian states budget between 2002 and 2018. The comparison of the sports and leisure area of public policy across states and with other areas of public policy confirms the central hypothesis of the punctuated equilibrium theory. Our data and results show how sports mega-events, together with political and economic events, were decisive for the punctuation of state funding for sport in Brazil. Also, we discuss how factors typically noted by the theory of punctuated equilibrium were important in agenda setting and affected the pattern of sports investments at the state level in Brazil.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this research is to get a better understanding of the impact of the Stockholm Fire Festival on the cultural integration of immigrant communities, and particularly its impact on the sociocultural integration of individual participants into Swedish society. The methodological approach is mixed-methods, consisting of participant observation, and a selected part of the data from 280 completed surveys based on answers to open-ended and closed-ended questions. The results indicate that participation in the festival and its celebration have a positive impact at the macro and ethnic community levels in terms of recognition of the festival by the host society, and thereby cultural integration, identity and inclusion of the ethnic community in the entire society. However, the results do not support the idea that participation in this festival has a positive impact on the sociocultural integration of the individual participants into society. Sociocultural integration presupposes intercultural encounters between immigrant individuals, between them and other ethnic groups (including the natives). It is evident that this festival cannot create such a platform for individual participants. This research contributes to the existing body of research on immigrant-oriented festivals in Western societies and strengthens the debates on migration, inclusion, integration, multiculturalism and interculturalism.

ABSTRACT Coworking spaces (CSs) have become increasingly popular as a mode and place of work, particularly in urban areas and among digital nomads. However, these spaces are also expanding in remote and attractive locations. Despite this trend, little is known about how tourism can influence the emergence of CSs. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the accommodation industry (hotels and other short-term and medium-term lodging options) and the presence of CSs in peripheral districts of Germany. By analysing both panel and longitudinal data at the district level, we found that the impact of the accommodation industry on the emergence of CSs was moderate. Using a design-thinking perspective and the breakthrough model, the study demonstrated that concepts related to work and leisure have broad applications for hotels, CSs in peripheral areas, and regional policymakers. Therefore, these stakeholders should consider making changes to their business strategies to adapt to structural changes and take advantage of the growing market potential for a resilient business.

ABSTRACT Digital nomadism gradually expanded during the 2010s. Since the COVID-19 pandemic, remote work (a prerequisite to digital nomadism), suddenly became mainstream. In this new context the term digital nomadism is increasingly used in ways that are broader or different to its original conception. This paper reviews scientific literature and draws on the author’s ethnographic fieldwork to create an updated classification of contemporary digital nomadism that acknowledges the broad spectrum of individuals, groups, communities, identities, and imaginaries labelled with the term digital nomad. The paper updates the definition of digital nomadism and provides a new taxonomy which subdivides the digital nomad model into five distinct types: freelance digital nomads; digital nomad business owners; salaried digital nomads; experimental digital nomads and armchair digital nomads. It also proposes that six key variable themes should be applied to these classifications. These are: autonomy over mobility; homebase practices; domestic vs. transnational travel; legal legitimacy; work-life balance and coworking space usage. The taxonomy and the variable themes are proposed as a roadmap for future research and as a tool so researchers and policymakers can more accurately evaluate real-world examples of digital nomad context, motivation, practice, and impact.

ABSTRACT Leisure sickness, a cover story of parascientific journals, lacks a current distinguishing. Therefore, 15 European participants who experienced health complaints during time off work took part in semi-structured online interviews, which were evaluated via focused interview analysis. The interview focused on the type, duration, timing and intensity of complaints during time off. Respiratory tract complaints were the most frequent, followed by headaches and a general feeling of being unwell. Ear problems were also reported, unlike in previous reports. Problems seem to occur on the second, and especially the third, day of the holiday, with the intensity varying over around 3 days, and the symptoms usually lasting 2–3 days. We operationalize facets of leisure sickness including the number (at least 2 from a list of 10), timing (during the first 3 days of holiday), duration (maximum of 3 days) and intensity (2–4 days) of symptoms, to guide future research.

ABSTRACT Attitude, norm and perceived behaviour control were theorized as important concepts influencing intention. Understanding these concepts toward persons with disabilities (PWDs) simultaneously is essential in developing acceptance and achieving an inclusive society. This study utilizes the Theory of Planned Behaviour to gain insights that could help promote public acceptance towards the participation of people with mobility impairment (PWMI) in nature-based recreation. An online survey was distributed to Malaysian respondents using a non-random sampling approach (n = 275). Based on descriptive analysis, the Malaysian sample has a slightly positive attitude (M = 3.31), low subjective norm (M = 1.89) and slightly positive in their perceived behaviour control in assisting PWMI (M = 3.58). Regression analyses revealed norm had the most frequent significant interactions and had the strongest relationships relative to attitude and perceived control variables. Lack of perceived control affects respondent intention to help according to different types of recreational activities. These findings present a serious need to promote acceptance by improving public attitude and perceived control, as well as breaking any normative barriers. Future research could extend the current findings by investigating public acceptance of different types of disabilities and employing a more robust sampling approach.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to examine the compulsory and elective course learning outcomes that indicate the goals of the primary education curriculums in terms of leisure education. The data were collected using a structured content form based on qualitative research methodology and were analysed using content analysis, which is a quantitative method. A total of 3013 learning outcomes in the primary curriculum in the 2017–2018 academic year were separately examined and coded by three researchers. Of the 2160 compulsory courses, 326 (15%) included direct leisure education outcomes, and 456 (21.1%) included indirect leisure education outcomes. Of the 853 elective courses, 90 (10.5%) included direct leisure education outcomes, and 182 (21.3%) included indirect leisure education outcomes. The highest learning outcomes of leisure education in the compulsory courses were in Physical Education and Sports and Games and Physical Activities courses, while the highest learning outcomes of leisure education in the elective courses were in Visual Arts and Intelligence Games courses. In conclusion, approximately 25%of the primary education curriculum courses provide learning outcomes in terms of leisure education, but the learning outcomes are focused on awareness and leisure skills, and there is no balanced distribution of leisure education dimensions.

ABSTRACT During the COVID-19 pandemic, recreation sites around the country experienced a rise in visitation numbers as residents looked for alternatives to staying home. The researchers hypothesized that the social and cultural changes associated with the pandemic have increased the level of visitor place attachment towards these sites. This research works to identify the level of connection guests have towards Arkansas State Parks (ASP) during COVID-19. Results from this study have shown that attachment towards ASP has grown throughout the pandemic and has increased the likelihood that these visitors will return to the site in the future.
