The growing role and relevance of tourism in cities – and of cities in tourism – has in recent decades emerged as a topic of great interest to scholars across many social sciences disciplines. Yet, while urban tourism research has flourished, various issues relating to tourism in metropolitan contexts are in need of greater scholarly engagement. What forms does tourism take in today’s metropolises and metropolitan regions? How do these forms differ from tourism in other urban contexts? Are these differences significant enough to warrant the classification of ‘metropolitan tourism’ as a distinct type of urban tourism? What are their implications for policy and planning processes? How do policy and planning processes in different metropolises and metropolitan regions differ from each other, and what can they learn from each other? And finally, how could tourism in metropolises and metropolitan regions be made more sustainable, resilient, and inclusive? Given the importance widely attributed to major metropolises and metropolitan regions as contemporary engines of economic development, innovation, and change, the widespread portrayal of tourism as a leading economic and social force of the 21st century, and the fact that the world's large metropolitan areas are key recipients of tourism flows, it is surprising how little systematic attention is paid to tourism in metropolitan contexts. This book aims to fill these gaps.

Сегодня музей рассматривается не только как место сохранения и репрезентации культурных объектов и ценностей, но и во многом как агент социальной инклюзии. Особое внимание при этом в российском контексте уделяется работе с людьми с разными формами инвалидности, в основе которой лежит принцип «ничего о нас без нас», стимулирующий музеи вовлекать людей с различным жизненным опытом не только ...

В конце 1980‑х гг. в Китае начался период реформ, который стимулировал бурную урбанизацию, а также позволил сельскому обществу повысить самостоятельность. В то же время централизованное управление под руководством Коммунистической партии Китая (КПК) по-прежнему играет очень большую роль в развитии села в современном Китае.

However, it remains unclear how this risk–benefit evaluation, after translating into corresponding privacy behaviors, subsequently affects users’ well-being. This study proposes an extended model in which several measures of well-being ...

Символические объекты исполняют в застроенном пространстве роль метафоры, погружающей в образ города. Особенно такие объекты важны в столицах, где они должны как репрезентировать всю страну миру, так и выступать представителями регионов, а также подчеркивать временную преемственность текущего состояния с воображаемой непрерывной историей. Повышенная знаковая, сигнификативная функция символических объектов часто вводит их в конфликт с непосредственным ...

Many sociologists drink wine, but hardly any write about it, at least for professional purposes. Sociological studies of wine are few in number, even in historically wine-producing countries, and wine matters remain ceded to other disciplines. The scholarly field of the ‘sociology of wine’ remains inchoate. Yet wine is an eminently sociological research object. This ...
