    L’espace de liberté comme mesure synthétique du développement territorial durable

    No full text
    Par la mise en débat du concept de développement, les auteurs proposent deux indicateurs synthétiques fondés sur une évaluation de potentiel. Sous l’hypothèse, faible, que tout développement réussi élargit le potentiel futur, la variation de potentiel est une mesure pertinente du développement. Dans l’analyse, les auteurs montrent combien l’espace de développement est intimement lié à l’étendue des libertés : une réduction de ces dernières entraîne mécaniquement une baisse des indicateurs. Fiable en conditions d’analyse, la méthode sera prochainement testée en situation réelle, afin de vérifier la pleine disponibilité des données sur des territoires divers et de sécuriser les modalités de calcul

    Il presente contributo prende spunto dall’esperienza del progetto PO FESR AUGuSTUS, esperienza che vuole generare un nuovo modo di fruire dei beni culturali con tecnologie innovative. Nel quadro delle attività di ricerca condotte presso il dSEAS, ci siamo interessati alle motivazioni che hanno spinto (pre-COVID) i gestori dei beni culturali europei ad adottare strategie consapevoli e formalizzate di digitalizzazione dei contenuti gestiti. Basandoci sulla survey ENUMERATE (Fricano, Pirrone 2020; Nauta et al. 2017), si è constatato come (pre-COVID) la motivazione più significativa fosse quella di una migliore conservazione dei beni, in un’ottica di non-uso

    Patrimonio culturale e tecnologia: un incontro ancora da valorizzare

    Today, many factors are driving cultural institutions to adopt digitization strategies. For some of them, as organizations in charge of monument care, historical or archaeological museums and heritage parks, this might be critical. Indeed, making available off-site experiences of heritage places, for instance by augmented reality and/or video games, fuels polyvalent and potentially contradictory dynamics. They lay at the intersection of three main dimensions: understanding how cultural heritage and technology interact; which attitudes people in charge of cultural heritage bear, and how tourist destinations are built and promoted. The paper combines information about the evolution of the literature with the European survey ENUMERATE and data on the digital content market. Thus, it returns a critical portrait of the state of art and it outlines future research paths, as well as suggestions for involving the institutes in charge of cultural heritage in a digital strategy process

    An approach for estimating the net change in tourism demand for a destination due to COVID-19

    Mobility restrictions and fear of COVID-19 infection have led individuals to change their travel behaviours. These changes create the possibility that a destination both attracts tourists it would not have gained without the pandemic (visit-creating effect) while losing others it would have typically attracted (visit-diverting effect). We propose a methodology to estimate the net change in demand due to COVID-19. It involves jointly estimating actual demand (visits or nights completed with COVID-19) and counterfactual demand (visits or nights that would have been completed without COVID-19) within a pseudo-panel data framework. Counterfactual data is constructed by combining actual demand with gained and lost demand attributable to COVID-19, identified through survey data. Focusing on domestic tourism demand in Hauts-de-France, France, we find a slight net decline in visits (−2.2%) but no significant change in nights spent. Ignoring the visit-creating effect or attributing all cancellations to COVID-19 exaggerate the pandemic’s negative effect

    Creative Hubs and the Cultural Divide: Exploring European Creative Collaborations

    No full text
    The economies generated within the creative and cultural sectors are playing an increasing role in international competition between territories. Collaborations and synergies between territories can create the right conditions for the overall growth of cultural economies and make the them more attractive and better performing. Building collaborative cultural policies is challenging due to the parties’ differing attitudes, priorities, and resources. In this contribution, we have focused on the funds made available by the Framework Program of the European Commission dedicated to developing cultural and creative sectors. The analysis highlights the characteristics of a network of collaborations between partners of different cities. Our results show non-trivial features linked to the cultural-creative dimensions of cities. Findings unveil complex cultural-creative collaboration dynamics. Results show that effective collaborative policies require carefully balancing diverse attitudes

    Piattaforme oil and gas e sviluppo turistico: evidenze da una analisi esplorativa sull’accettabilità del decommissioning circolare

    Lo studio propone una lettura dell’accettabilità sociale del decommissioning circolare delle piattaforme oil and gas a fini di sviluppo turistico con una particolare attenzione alle installazioni presenti in Italia. Esso mostra come: 1) il pubblico riconosca un certo potenziale di riutilizzo turistico delle piattaforme; 2) l’accettabilità sociale sia ostacolata da distorsioni percettive; 3) la modifica di tali percezioni richiedano compiute policy di marketing sociale.This study focuses on the social acceptability of oil and gas platforms circular decommissioning and its potential for tourism development purposes, especially in Italy. It shows how: 1) the public acknowledges potential for reusing and repurposing offshore platforms for tourism development; 2) social acceptability is hindered by biased perceptions; 3) changing perceptions will require non-trivial social marketing policie

    Strategic Adoption of Immersive Technologies in Cultural Heritage and Tourism

    Immersive technologies are at a crossroads, with many actors pondering their adoption. The cultural and tourism industries are particularly impacted, facing significant pressure to make decisions that could shape their future landscapes. Stakeholders’ perceptions play a crucial role in this process, influencing the speed and extent of technology adoption. As immersive technologies promise to revolutionize experiences, stakeholders in these sectors need to evaluate the benefits and challenges of embracing such innovations. The current choices will likely determine the trajectory of cultural preservation and tourism enhancement, potentially transforming how we engage with history, art, and travel. Starting from a decomposition of stakeholders’ perceptions into principal components using Q-methodology, this article employs an evolutionary game model to forecast the possible scenarios and highlight potential decision-making trajectories. The proposed approach highlights how evolutionary dynamics identify a dominant strategy that emerges in the long-ter

    Le preferenze dei consumatori verso i marchi e le etichette di qualità dei prodotti ittici

    No full text
    Il consumo dei prodotti ittici è ormai sempre più analizzato per via delle implicazioni socio-economico-ambientali che da esso ne derivano. Se da un lato un maggiore consumo è sicuramente positivo in termini di salubrità, dall’altro mette in crisi il sistema ambiente per l’eccessivo sfruttamento degli stock ittici. Negli ultimi anni, vi è stata inoltre una progressiva crescita dell’attenzione del consumatore all’impatto ambientale dei processi produttivi con la conseguente maggiore presenza sul mercato di prodotti che utilizzando brand e label associati procedure certificate cercano di aggiungere alla qualità dei prodotti ittici percepita dai consumatori anche componenti che valorizzano produzioni più eco-sostenibili. Dal confronto dei risultati delle survey sulle preferenze dei consumatori europei di prodotti ittici, si è analizzato il trend dei consumi per effetto della pandemia da COVID19 e l’importanza attribuita alle eco-label, ai marchi di qualità e ai brand

    Metaverse and tourism development: issues and opportunities in stakeholders’ perception

    In recent years, understanding how the managers of tourism attractors (such as archaeological parks, museums, seaside resorts, nature reserves, etc...) adopt, refuse, integrate, and benefit from the digital transformation has received growing interest. In addition, consistent case-study literature highlights how adopting technologically advanced tools can generate positive externalities for the territories in which such attractors are located. However, it is still unclear how different tourism stakeholders value including Metaverse tools in their strategies. In this paper, we explore stakeholders’ preferences for embedding metaverse tools in their strategy, and we check for the existence of cluster of preferences. The study applies a recent development of Q-methodology which allows substituting classical q-statements formulation with multi-attribute and multi-level formulations. Data are collected by involving stakeholders from Sicilian territories. The results of this exploratory study demonstrate that the use of the Metaverse tool is influenced by the perception of the stakeholders and confirm the existence of heterogeneous preferences among groups of stakeholders, as expected in a diffusion model of innovation. The dominant point of view considers a full awareness of the metaverse tools and perceives them as slightly worse than the social ones. Some stakeholders do not have adequate knowledge of the Metaverse. We can argue that we are still in a moment of transition in the diffusion of the Metaverse between the phase of persuasion and that of evaluation and decision on the basis of the impact effects of the Metaverse on competitiveness within the tourism sector. The critical mass may not have been reached yet in the adoption rate of Metaverse innovation
