This paper, aligned with the ethical turn, applies the sociology of education to explore host parents' perceptions and strategies regarding children's education. It argues that educational aspirations and investments in children's education are closely linked to family social mobility and the future of the destination. Through an ethnographic and comparative study of three villages in Dali, China, the paper examines how tourism influences educational consumption among host parents, focusing on both institutional and alternative educational models. The findings show that tourism has reshaped parental consumption practices at both structural and cultural levels. Hosts recognize the value of cultural capital and reassess traditional educational practices. Tourism facilitates cultural capital accumulation and reshapes social stratification. Hosts also adopt new educational practices through exposure to external influences, integrating them into their own strategies for children's education. By linking tourism, educational beliefs, and children's education, the paper offers new theoretical insights into tourism as a driver of upward social mobility and provides an alternative framework for rural education and social development.

The present paper investigates the relationship between tourism development and residents' well-being in the top ten tourist destinations utilizing monthly data from 2007 to 2019. The novel quantile-on-quantile (QQ) regression approach introduced by Sim and Zhou is employed for this research, which offers an ideal framework for capturing the overall dependence structure between tourism and residents' well-being. The outcomes reveal that tourism development exhibits a positive influence on residents' well-being for France, Italy, Germany, Russia, and Spain across most of the quantiles, while tourism development negatively affects residents' well-being for Turkey and the UK in the majority of the quantiles. The study also finds that China, Mexico, and the US produce the mixed (positive and negative) effects of tourism development on residents' well-being in the majority of the quantiles. Furthermore, there are substantial variations throughout nations and across quantiles of tourism development and residents' well-being within each nation. Additionally, the results of Granger causality in quantiles validate the bidirectional causal association between tourism development and residents’ well-being for all selected nations. This paper concludes with a discussion of the implications for theory and practice.

Creative tourism provides a novel, diversified, and meaningful experience to tourists. It is distinctive due to the active participation of tourists in activities. Destination managers often lack awareness of the complex relationship between creative activities and the role of creative industries, which is crucial for tourism development. Limited studies have explored the dynamics between creative tourism, creative industries, and activities, necessitating investigation of this area of research. Hence, the present study addressed the knowledge gap by identifying key strategic areas for creative tourism development. The first objective was to analyse the interrelationship of creative activities and their influence on each other. The second was to rank the importance of creative industries based on creative activities. Accordingly, the expert opinion survey was conducted, and collected information was analysed using two multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques. While the causal effect of activities and their weights were calculated through fuzzy DEMATEL, creative industries were prioritised using the fuzzy TOPSIS method. This study identified six activities and 12 creative industries contributing to creative tourism. Findings indicated that 'visiting workshops' significantly impacted every other activity, while 'interaction of tourists with artisans' emerged as the most influential activity. Furthermore, the 'handicraft' industry was identified as most suitable for engaging tourists in creative tourism, followed by the 'design' and 'performing art' industries. The study underscored the interlinkage of creative tourism activities and emphasised that improvement in one activity can positively affect others. These findings will assist decision-makers in formulating strategies for specific activities and creative industries, enhancing creative tourism experiences.

People with disabilities still encounter many hurdles when traveling. This study aims at identifying the factors hindering the development of accessibility in tourist destinations. To this end, we developed a stakeholder analysis using the Spanish Costa Blanca as a case study. Employing a qualitative approach, insights from accessible tourism stakeholders were gathered. Data was collected through 83 semi-structured interviews. The research revealed instances of non-collaborative relationships and conflicts among stakeholders, which are acting as obstacles to accessible tourism. Among others, discrimination by firms and non-disabled customers to tourists with disabilities, inconsistencies in legislation, or challenges associated with the implementation of Universal Design.

The research examines a conceptual approach to proactive, resilient, and cooperative initiatives to develop destination resilience. This approach addresses internal factors of tourism service production as objects of resilient cooperation. The framework for tourism cooperative networks for co-creating value in the destination is elaborated theoretically and confirmed by experts. The synthesis of corporate, network, and destination resilience creates the model of resilient cooperative networks, Confidence-Model. The model showcases value-chain co-creation, consisting of integrative survival capacities, transition networks, cooperative resource management, leisure sharing economy, and communication collection points. Value-chain co-creation is aligned on a regional level. The Confidence-Model reiterates the embeddedness of stakeholders in destinations through the resilient business model. Transitioning towards destination resilience involves ensuring self-sufficiency in tourism supply chains and developing resilient products, ultimately leading to new experiences and the creation of meaningful livelihoods.

This study investigates how online users from domestic and international audiences authenticate social media influencers (SMIs) that contribute to building a destination's organic image through creative content about the destination's culture, traditions, heritage, and the life of its ordinary people. The context of the study is a popular Chinese influencer, Li Ziqi, whose videography depicts domestic, day-to-day life in rural areas of the Sichuan province of China. We use an approach that combines the Large Language Model (LLM) prompt engineering with theoretically guided human interpretations of authentication aspects such as genuineness, otherizing, traditionalizing, nostalgia, and existential authenticity. We obtained evidence that authentication through otherizing and existential authenticity, specifically self-reflection and self-discovery, is more prevalent among international followers, while domestic viewers use traditionalizing and nostalgia more. Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) can potentially leverage those differences in perceptions in their marketing communications with respective audiences.

Drawing upon existing anthropomorphism literature, this research employed two experiments to investigate the relationships among video-based destination anthropomorphism, AI mind perception, and destination image, while examining the moderating influence of AI anxiety. Study 1 confirmed that video-based destination anthropomorphism and AI mind perception positively impact destination image. It also demonstrated that video-based destination anthropomorphism positively affects AI mind perception and established the mediating role of AI mind perception. Study 2 verified that AI anxiety moderates the impact of video-based destination anthropomorphism on AI mind perception. These research outcomes contribute to the body of knowledge in destination marketing literature by constructing an integrated model. Furthermore, the findings offer valuable insights for destination marketers and advertisers in enhancing destination image through anthropomorphic strategies.

This study investigates whether and how sustainable forms of hospitality could affect the local community by generating socioeconomic benefits in rural and distressed areas. Focusing on the 'Albergo Diffuso', a unique form of sustainable accommodation that transforms rural villages into tourist destinations, this research analyzes its impact through semi-structured interviews in two communities in Irpinia, Southern Italy. Findings show that the Albergo Diffuso could be a territorial development tool; however, several factors contributed to its failure, resulting in a lack of social impact on the local community. Specifically, findings suggest that this sustainable hospitality model could positively influence destination promotion, community participation, place attachment, and even the future orientation of residents. Nonetheless, each of these outcomes faces specific barriers that hinder their achievement. This study offers valuable implications for practitioners and policymakers, emphasizing the need to foster relationships built on listening to and engaging local stakeholders, especially residents. Lastly, the study offers valuable insights for practitioners and policymakers in developing tourism in rural destinations.

As the night economy contributes widely to cities, regions, and nations worldwide, resident value co-creation, has been a topic of significant interest. Although there is a growing interest in value co-creation, there is limited research on how multi-sensory stimulation affects residents engaged in night-time leisure. It is also unclear whether a place could instigate value co-creation with local residents by strategically selecting appropriate sensory stimuli, and if so, how. Using a mixed methods approach, this study draws on the sensory marketing framework to explore the process by which residents’ multi-sensory perceptions evoke emotion and subsequently influence value co-creation. The structural equation modelling indicated that multi-sensory experience, place identity and place dependence, positively impacted value co-creation, and results of the fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis revealed 12 combined paths that could stimulate value co-creation. These findings provide actionable insights for DMOs to tailor sensory marketing initiatives, maximising resident value creation in night-time leisure.
