“Couchsurfing has made me a better person and the world a better place”:the transformative power of collaborative tourism experiences
No full textPresented as an alternative form of tourism, Couchsurfing is a predominantly non-commercial accommodation type where hosts offer a “couch” to travelers through a hospitality network. Couchsurfing.com is considered as an icon of the sharing economy and more specifically of shareable tourism. This article provides a deeper understanding of couchsurfers’ motivations and shared values. Through an empirical qualitative study, we discuss the transformative power of Couchsurfing experiences, the underlying transformational processes, conditions, and socio-psychological and behavioral consequences. We also discuss the findings’ implications for society, businesses, and tourism in general.</p

Geographical agglomeration: Ellison and Glaeser's index applied to the case of Belgian manufacturing industry
No full textBertinelli L. and Decrop J. (2005) Geographical agglomeration: Ellison and Glaeser's index applied to the case of Belgian manufacturing industry, Regional Studies 39 , 567-583. The aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive discussion of the use of the Ellison and Glaeser index and subsequently to carry out a descriptive analysis of the geographical concentration of the manufacturing sector in Belgium. To assess the degree of concentration, individual plant data on wage and salary earners are used, with a relatively fine geographical breakdown (districts and townships). It is shown that more than 30% of the industries are excessively agglomerated.Agglomeration, Ellison and Glaeser index, Spatial autocorrelation, Belgium, Agglomeration, Indice Ellison-Glaeser, Autocorrelation geographique, Belgique, Ballung, Ellison und Glaeserscher Index, Raumliche Autokorrelation, Belgien, Aglomeracion, Indice de Glaeser y Ellison, Autocorrelacion espacial, Belgica, JEL classifications: R12, R30,
La consommation collaborative:Enjeux et défis de la nouvelle société du partage
No full textDepuis quelques années, l’économie collaborative, souvent qualifiée d’économie du partage, connaît un succès fulgurant, bousculant les principes traditionnels de l’économie basés sur l’acquisition d’un bien. Cette consommation collaborative est née de la conjoncture de plusieurs facteurs incluant les nouvelles technologies qui facilitent le contact entre les individus, la baisse des ressources face à la crise économique, mais aussi les évolutions sociales et un certain militantisme suite aux changements des valeurs de la génération « Y »

Redirection theory and antisocial travel behavior : configural antecedents to nascent road-road signaling
No full text© 2017 by Emerald Publishing Limited. The focus of this study is on analyzing influencing factors of antisocial travel-related behaviors - in particular road rage. Building on the concept of redirection, the current chapter develops a theory of natural and planned redirection to derive starting points for demarketing antisocial behaviors. A fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) with survey data from 6,811 consumers from the DDB Life Style Study is used to gain insights into the individuals behind road rage. Results show that specific kinds of anti- and prosocial behavior associate with high and low levels of road rage, respectively. The study finds that these prosocial behaviors may function as natural redirection mechanisms and prevent or reduce road rage. Thereby, the findings extend previous analyses of road rage and allow for deriving theoretical and policy implications
