A Hashtag Campaign: A Critical Tool to Transmedia Storytelling Within a Digital Strategy and Its Legal Informatics Issues. A Case Study
This paper dwells upon transmedia storytelling as a cutting-edge
tourist-oriented approach to promote a territory in a smart perspective with a
focus on the power of a hashtag campaign within a pilot Instagram tour occurred in
2015. Starting from the belief that involvement, participation and sharing are useful
key to most industries and sectors, and especially to tourism, we study in-depth
Salentoupndown case, as a successful example of 2.0 initiative in terms of creating
new models for public engagement, visitor meaning-making (i.e. travel generated
content) through the application of the “legal informatics by design and by default”
logic, on the assumption that no digital solution today can be conceived without
assessing it as by law enacted. Data collection and analysis show how
Salentoupndown becomes, in terms of reach, exposure and engagement through the
social media channels, a viral tourism web-based event. By integrating the conceptual
discussion on the adoption of technology-based innovations in the tourism
sector with a 2.0 tourist-oriented empirical experience, the study provides useful
insights on the practical implementation of future location-based transmedia storytelling

An investigation into the sharing economy phenomenon in the Greek tourism industry in the accommodation sector
A phenomenon that has spread as rapidly as the sharing economy, bypassing traditional distribution channels and disrupting established business models, has naturally provoked considerable controversy. Users, providers, sharing economy sites, established businesses offering similar services to those being shared (or traded, exchanged, rented, swapped or otherwise) and governments at all levels (municipality, province, nation state, regional, and even international), have found themselves on different sides of a furious debate about the present and future shape of the sharing economy. This article explores the drivers and impacts of sharing economy in the Greek hospitality industry, presents the legal framework and discusses the challenging and at times controversial nature of it.</jats:p
Application of a Cultural Landscape Tourism Marketing Management Approach in a Mountainous Area
The Sustainable Strategic Innovation adopted by the Archaeological Museum of Taranto "MArTA" which drives the repositioning of Taranto as a Cultural Tourist Destination
Policy makers' strategic choices are directed to seek the endogenous resources to create sustainable development paths in Taranto, a city known as a symbol of industrial pollution because of its steel mill. The research objective is trying to give a strategic framework in order to start development paths, thus making the city of Taranto rediscover a cultural and tourist vocation, thanks to its historical endowment of local resources.
The analysis of the archaeological museum of Taranto, "MArTA", clarifies how a sustainable museum model can help local development and civic innovation thanks to its inclusion potential and its ability to involve various local stakeholders. Therefore, the paper aims to shed light on the path of sustainable strategic innovation undertaken by museum organizations, in particular by the MArTA museum organization.
Faced with the social, economic and technological changes that have characterized the last few decades, museums have gradually initiated transformative policies of their core concept. In this way, they have rediscovered themselves as an active part in the process of social innovation and territorial development, following the Sustainable Development Goal 11 of the UN 2030 Agenda.
In-depth interviews with the museum management, the local community, and the local public and private stakeholders involved in the socio-economic development of the city will be adopted.
The paper provides policy indications to public decision makers operating in the cultural sector and in the local administration in order to design and develop a management model that responds to a systemic perspective
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
