TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a framework for the ordering of the curriculum for tourism higher education, which comprises four key domains of vocational action, vocational reflection, liberal reflection, and liberal action.

TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical exploration of the attraction system model, based on a survey of over 6,000 tourists to cultural attractions, is presented, which provides strong support both for the general structure of the model and for the idea that tourists are "pushed" towards attractions by their motivations.

TL;DR: The authors analyzes the significance of tour operators on the recovery of destinations hit by crisis and recommends the steps that can be taken by the destination itself to become re-established on the international market.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mail survey of tourism businesses, focus groups, and other collected data, describes and interprets recent tourism trends, and the relevance of Butler's proposed later stages in his destination lifecycle model is examined.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid approach including correspondence analysis and logit modeling is introduced to compare the relative market position of Virginia with eight other eastern US states and the District of Columbia.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determine the features that characterize a new tourist class, called modern rural tourism, and to figure out the proportion of this market in one specific Spanish region.
