To develop precise strategies for managing connectivity, it is crucial to examine stakeholders' networking behaviourshow they connect to a destination network and contribute to its structural formations within and beyond their sectors and geographic locations. This study looks at online networking forms that are qualitatively different from interpersonal contacts among organisational members. Specifically, it focuses on hyperlink networking, given its significance for the visibility of organisations and the overall destination and the credibility of tourism websites. Using social network analysis, this research identifies diverse online networking behaviours related to involvement in networking activities, link-placing and linkreceiving, connections with similar and dissimilar actors, and community formation of tourism stakeholders across different sectors within a multi-destination region. The network is characterised by assembling behaviour, where many actors are connected to the network by other organisations rather than by their own linking activity. The study confirms organisations' low involvement in networking and significant imbalances in their activities. It highlights how imbalances arise in the conjuncture of various sectors, each having a distinct role in uneven link allocation. Destination management organisations are key connectors and mediators but struggle to establish high-density within-sector connections. Public domain-related sectors are generally more active in networking than private ones. Intersectoral connections, rather than within-sector connections, are the major source of links for sectors. Stakeholders tend to connect more with actors from the same geographic area.

Para este analisis, se han tenido en cuenta dos perspectivas diferentes: (1) el nuevo paradigma de movilidad ?New Mobilities Paradigm (NMP)? que entiende la sociedad desde un prisma movil, caracterizado por la constante interaccion de personas y culturas; y (2) las teorias del ocio, especialmente desde la perspectiva de barreras a la participacion en ocio, que consideran que el comportamiento humano puede estar limitado o constrenido por diversos factores, dando lugar a un cambio en el comportamiento. La fusion de esta doble perspectiva ha posibilitado estudiar las pautas de movilidad y las practicas en ocio desde una perspectiva mas profunda que la que cada una de las teorias podria facilitar por separado, dando como resultado la identificacion de las razones que impulsan la movilidad y, al mismo tiempo, los elementos que pueden...

Borders, on the one hand, are commonly seen as inhibitors of mobilities, but changes in border processes have led to greater porosity enabling an increase in cross-border leisure practices for those cosmopolitan individuals with the time and money to travel. On the other hand, recent governmental responses to the refugee/asylum-seeker crisis and terrorist attacks have opened up new debates about reinforcing border controls. Such rebordering challenges the idea of a “borderless” Europe, which then leads to further leisure constraints. We discuss the politics of leisure mobilities through an analysis of the Basque Eurocity as an example of a geographical area in which cross-border leisure mobility has been enabled. We then analyse the politics of the contemporary European refugee crisis as an example of the increased securitisation of leisure mobilities.

Si bien es evidente que se trata de una ruta de peregrinacion, no es ajena a una orografia y un patrimonio, natural y cultural, muy concreto. Estudios preliminares realizados muestran que, al igual que pasa en otros casos, las motivaciones de los peregrinos van desde las religiosas y espirituales hasta otras mas ‘turisticas’ como pueden ser las culturales, deportivas o de naturaleza (Abad, et al., 2016; Olsen, 2013). Este estudio propone un acercamiento al peregrino ignaciano desde los diferentes ‘tipos de turismo religioso’ (Griffin, 2007), con el objetivo de comprender mas profundamente la interconexion entre la experiencia vinculada a espacios sagrados y las necesidades mas basicas del turista, persona en movilidad, al cual es necesario garantizar servicios...

Ciudades circulares, cohesivas y creativas. Por un desarrollo humano sostenible integral, 2022

As we will see in this volume, both the circular city and the cohesive and creative city can actively collaborate to this end. The circular city can obtain everything it needs from the surrounding environment, minimise and reduce its needs, optimise its forms of use and consumption, reuse and recycle the waste generated and reclaim damaged spaces. While the cohesive city can do its bit by taking care of the people who live in and move through it and foster their emancipation and autonomous life by providing universal educational, social and health services. Finally, the creative city can enhance the talent and creativity of its citizens, in order to foster greater cultural development and help solve other challenges of an environmental, economic and/or social nature. -- En el marco de la Colección Ciudad 2030, esta obra tiene por finalidad reflexionar, desde diversos puntos de vista, sobre el papel de las ciudades circulares, cohesivas y creativas en la generación de modelos de gobernanza democrática y colaborativa que avancen en el desarrollo humano sostenible de las ciudades, territorios y comunidades. Como podremos observar en este volumen, tanto la ciudad circular como la ciudad cohesiva y creativa pueden colaborar activamente con tal fin. La ciudad circular puede obtener del medio próximo todo cuanto necesite, minimizar y reducir sus necesidades, optimizar sus formas de uso y consumo, reutilizar y reciclar los residuos generados recuperando los espacios dañados. Mientras que la ciudad cohesiva puede aportar su granito de arena cuidando de las personas que la habitan y transitan y fomentar su emancipación y vida autónoma al prestar servicios educativos, sociales y de salud de carácter universal. Finalmente, la ciudad creativa puede potenciar el talento y la creatividad de su ciudadanía, con el fin de favorecer un mayor desarrollo cultural y acompañar en la resolución de otros retos de naturaleza medioambiental, económica y/o social.
