| Tourism evolution is a significant branch of tourism study that focuses on the summary of trends in tourism evolution and corresponding phenomena. With the development of society and the tourism industry, some classical theories have become unsuitable, due to isolation comprehension of each factor and the unclear criteria of stage partitions. Consequently, finding more appropriate analytical tools has become a rising concern.
Mitchell put forward the thesis of creative destruction in tourism-a model based on Schumpeteru0027s creative destruction theory and Lefebvreu0027s thoughts regarding the production of space. Mitchellu0027s model focused on the inherent connection between human activities and their results-namely changes to landscape and commercial structures-which was more progressive than other classical theories. However, both the criteria of stage partitions and characteristics of each stage remain unclear.
To clarify the potential linkages between fragmented phenomena and discern potential stage partition criteria, this study constructed predictive indicators based on the results of previous research that applied Mitchellu0027s model as a dominant framework, and which recorded fragmented phenomena in different fields-such as tourist growth rate and commercial agglomeration. This study also proves the rationality and applicability of predictive indicators through an empirical investigation of the research area, Tan-Shui; a famous coastal tourism destination in Taiwan, which is facing the risk of over-commercialization due to the overdevelopment of tourism.
By collecting and analyzing social statistics and land cover aerial photographs, this study clarifies the potential criteria of the stage partition of the tourism evolution process in Tan-Shui, as well as the corresponding characteristic of each stage. The rationality and applicability of predictive indicators are also proved. |
