abstract
Cultural tourism is one of the most sustainable and fastest-growing types of tourism, and so has been widely studied. Despite countless works analyzing the possible factors that can condition the choice of the tourist destination, few have addressed how they may differ by sex and within cultural tourism, and they contradict. This paper analyzes this phenomenon through the dimensions of cultural offerings, services and motivations in the city of Málaga, a very tourist city in Spain, which is the fourth country out of 167 with the most world heritage sites—UNESCO. Partial least squares—structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) and importance-performance map analysis (IPMA) were performed for a database of 415 cultural tourists survey responses. The results showed differences between constructs depending on the sex of the tourists. For men, the factor that most affects the choice of destination is tourist motivation—namely, the reason for their visit— followed by services. Conversely, services are first for women, followed by cultural offerings and motivations. The results of this study can be valuable when designing more specific tourism strategies adapted to the profile of tourists.

Being one of the most dynamic economic sectors in the world, tourism has become very important for both the supply side and the demand side, which contain both the destination itself and the local population. Popular tourist destinations must deal with increasing pressures on environment and society, as a result of the increase in the number of tourists; therefore, the term “overtourism” appeared and became a fertile concept in research, studied from many points of view (social, environmental, economic, psychological). The scientific literature includes numerous works on overtourism (especially research articles), but this book is one of the few that presents this phenomenon by complementary definitions, proposes methods to identify and measure it, and tries to offer solutions for its management. The book reviewed here is part of the “Contemporary Geographies of Leisure, Tourism and Mobility” book series, which aims to address the needs of students and academics. It is an edited book with 32 contributors, mostly from Italy, Germany, and Austria, but also from other countries such as Poland, The Netherlands, South Africa, the United States, Canada, and Australia. Only the academic affiliation of the authors is presented, not the professional category (PhD student, professor, researcher, and the like) as in other edited books, so their degree of competence can only be assessed by searching the Internet for information about each one. But what confirms the credibility of the scientific contribution of this book is that it is the result of the international conference on “Overtourism” that took place on 13 March 2018 at Eurac Research, the research flagship of the Autonomous Province of South Tyrol, situated in the European Alps in northern Italy. Eurac Research is “one of the biggest think tanks specializing in the Social Sciences in Northern Italy, and one of the top tourism studies institutions with regard to area development, strategy and anticipation” (xiii). The topic addressed in this book is important in the context of the rapid growth of overtourism in the world, of mass protests against overtourism in Europe and in other destinations around the world, but also because “the perception of overtourism by resident populations has been significantly linked to the perception of illegal mass immigration to Europe” (xiv). This book “aims to contribute to a better understanding of this question (‘When is it too much of a good thing?’) and the related challenges, and to generate options for

Unorthodox ideas can make or break a scholar’s career, but with time, the most reasonable ones might meet a receptive audience. One such concept is slowdown, coined by Danny Dorling, the Halford Mackinder Professor of Geography at the University of Oxford. In Slowdown, Dorling presents quantitative findings that question the explanatory merit of Great Acceleration, a period following World War II signaling the quickening pace of population increase, human impacts on the environment, and climatic change. According to this English geographer, the Great Acceleration has ended, and humans have been pumping the brakes on many of their global activities. Slowdown goes against the grain of what geographers, including myself, have published on the Great Acceleration, oft depicted through graphs with upturned curves and dire interpretations of humanity’s future. Based on my reading, the term slowdown signifies a temporal process, not a thematic time period like the Industrial Revolution. Dorling does not appear to propose a replacement to the Great Acceleration, or, for that matter, the Anthropocene, Capitalocene, Cthulucene, Novacene, Plantationocene, and other periods made fashionable by scholarly discourse. Slowdown is a temporary pattern of change occurring after an acceleration in humanenvironment interactions. (Dorling similarly defines capitalism not as a formal ideology or philosophy, but as a transition between two states of relative economic stability.) Recognizing that change is nonlinear, Dorling concentrates analysis on “change in the change that is occurring” (27). Raw numbers may show increases, but the pace of those increases complicates the story. Certain aspects of the Great Acceleration are ending, but not all. Dorling dedicates a chapter to various decelerating dimensions of society, specifically debt, data, demographics, fertility rates, and economics. To illustrate slowdown in each of these areas, Dorling incorporates a diverse array of variables, including change in the U.S. student debt (2006–2018), articles on Wikipedia (2001– 2019), total population (1–2100), total fertility rate of the United States (1973– 2016), and the NASDAQ Composite Index (1971–2019). Climate change and temperature increase, on the other hand, continue to accelerate with no sign of slowing down anytime soon. To be sure, Dorling qualifies that he is not gaslighting the doomsday environmentalists by acknowledging, “If we are to survive as a populous species, the human-made component of climate change
