Industrial Mining Tourism Activities

2010

INTRODUCTIONThe diversification of local sources of income is considered to be one of the main paths to achieving development in certain spaces which, due to their special, depressed situation, need a means of economic reactivation. Tour-ism can be considered to provide an effective and complementary method of achieving development as it combines local synergies, fosters employment and improves the standard of living of the residents of these zones. There-fore, tourism has become one way of addressing the socio-economic problems faced by rural areas, and some zones have used tourism as a method of miti-gating problems related to industrial decline (Arwell and Llurdes i Coit 1996; Hospers 20…

2022

Islands are frequently characterised by an economic structure centred on tourism and the service sector. This specialisation has taken different forms and characterisations concerning the chosen or spontaneously developed model. To understand the development choices and patterns, this article analyses sixteen islands and archipelagos in the European Union over ten years from 2010 to 2019. A panel data analysis was based on critical variables identifying the tourism industry model from those that could represent a proxy of the community-based tourism model.

2017

This paper discusses the process of transformation of the (coal) mining heritage from the 1990s up to the present day. It draws attention to the development of new trends related to the conservation and documentation of that heritage. In the last decades, numerous open air museums, tradition parks, monument trails have been created, which, through various forms of activities, encourage people to take interest in the history and traditions associated with mining. Today, the mining heritage has a significant potential, especially in terms of popular forms of tourism (industrial, urban, thematic). Due to institutional and financial support, also on the part of local environments, and a well-de…
