Towards Quality and Sustainable Tourism in Bali: Should the Regional Master Plan be Adjusted?

Bali is the area in Indonesia that is most affected economically due to the paralysis of the tourism industry during the Covid-19 Pandemic. Consequently, tourism development programs designed by the government faced many obstacles in their implementation. This article discusses how the concept of quality and sustainable tourism are incorporated into the Tourism Master Plan of the Bali Province 2015-2029.

A series of qualitative interviews and a focus group discussion were conducted to deepen understanding of legal and non-legal matters. This article suggested that even though the concept of quality and sustainable tourism has been incorporated into the aforementioned master plan, the document implies a contradiction between the vision that desires to apply the concept and the goals and objectives which tend to support quantity tourism. The qualitative evaluation indicated that the master plan could not be appropriately implemented and requires an adjustment to bring in again the vision into the implementing policy adopted by the provincial government.

Evolution and Influencing Factors of Social-Ecological System Vulnerability in the Wuling Mountains Area.

With the wide spread of the concept of sustainable tourism in various countries and regions, the research on tourism poverty alleviation is paying increasingly closer attention to the sustainability of the poverty reduction effect of tourism, and the social-ecosystem theory of tourist destinations has been widely applied in the sustainable development of tourism in backward mountainous areas. However, existing studies lack the dynamic evaluation of social-ecosystem vulnerability in places of tourism, and are devoid of large sample data. This paper aims to analyze the law of spatial and temporal evolution of the social-ecosystem vulnerability in China’s Wuling Mountains area, and to help solve the obstacles and difficulties of realizing the effective connection between poverty alleviation and rural revitalization. The set analysis method (SPA) was used to evaluate the vulnerability and the obstacle degree model was utilized to identify the vulnerability barrier factors. Forty-two national key poverty-alleviation counties in the Wuling Mountains area were selected as the research objects to analyze the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of social-ecosystem vulnerability based on the valuation model of “Social-Economic-Ecological (S-E-E) model” and the “Vulnerability-Scoping-Diagram (V-S-D) model”. In this paper, we clarified the two types of changes in social-ecosystem vulnerability in the Wuling Mountains area, and analyzed the spatial differences of vulnerability from the perspective of subsystems and counties. In terms of the results of this study, from 2010 to 2019, the overall vulnerability of social ecosystems showed a trend of “slow-rise and steady-decline”, with the vulnerability index peaking in 2014 and declining year by year thereafter. Spatially, the overall vulnerability is smaller in the north than in the south; and social-ecosystem vulnerability is the result of the interaction between system exposure-sensitivity and system adaptive capacity. Based on the change in vulnerability of different subsystems and different counties, and the barrier factors it faced, we make targeted suggestions to help the region to reduce its social-ecosystem vulnerability.

Seeking pathways for sustainable urban tourism: a critical deconstruction of Berlin's approach for city-compatible tourism

ABSTRACT This article explores the current dynamics in the policy field of urban tourism and new approaches to sustainable urban tourism that have emerged after years of growing tensions and controversial debates in the pre-COVID 19 era. By using a critical interpretive approach of a discourse-based deconstruction, the case of Berlin and its novel approach of ‘city-compatible tourism’ are used to analyse how, in the context of a proclaimed policy change, an expansion of the understanding of urban tourism and its possible modes of regulation is taking place. It illustrates how different ideas and conceptions from different discursive knowledge formations converge, promising an innovative policy approach but with some inconsistencies, leading to a diffuse policy discourse on sustainable urban tourism. By underlining the generally complex nature of implementing the concept of sustainable tourism, the paper finally argues that a more profound negotiation of the essential goals and principles of sustainable tourism in an urban context is necessary to initiate a fundamental change in policy practice.
