Abstract
Tailored and effective governance is a key requirement for implementing sustainable tourism: it can enhance democratic processes, provide direction and offer the means to make practical progress. This introduction explains how the papers in this collection provide critical assessments of the theory and practice of tourism governance and sustainability. It argues that theoretical frameworks are crucial to research on the subject as they affect the issues examined and the policy recommendations made. Several papers in the collection focus on relevant theoretical frameworks and concepts, while others consider governance at different geographical scales and the interconnections between those scales. The temporal dimensions of governance are also explored because sustainable development relates to long time horizons. Governance is also considered in relation to trade-offs, policy failures, learning processes, adaptive management, the public sphere and the principle of subsidiarity.
对旅游和可持续性的政策治理的批判性的分析
量身定做和有效的政策治理是对实施可持续发展旅游的关键要求:它能加强民主化过程,提供方向,并且赋予实践过程意义。该绪论解释了在这一辑的文章是如何对旅游政策治理和可持续性的理论和实践做出批判性的评估分析的。理论化的框架对该主题的研究是非常重要的,因为这些框架可以影响到审查的问题和需要提供的政策建议。该辑的一些文章集中讨论相关的理论框架和概念,而另一些文章则考虑不同地域大小的基础上的政策治理和他们之间的联系。因为可持续性发展关联到长时间的治理,因此政策治理在时间分区上的不同也在一些文章中讨论到。政策治理也可以被认为与双赢,政策失败,学习过程,适应性管理,公共区域和政府补助原则相关。
