Este trabalho se propõe a discutir a relação entre o lugar literário e a possibilidade de desenvolver um turismo cultural sustentável, na cidade de Salvador, Bahia, Brasil, dando destaque à casa-museu Casa do Rio Vermelho, última residência do escritor Jorge Amado. Localizada no Bairro do Rio Vermelho, a Casa reúne fotografias, objetos pessoais e obras de arte, que retratam a vida da família Amado, suas viagens pelo mundo e a cultura da Bahia. É considerada um lugar de memória (Nora, 1993) e, também, um lugar literário (Quinteiro & Baleiro, 2019), por apresentar elementos que possuem significado afetivo, histórico, cultural e literário, atraindo turistas e residentes. Devido à riqueza do acervo e utilização das técnicas e estratégias de interpretação do patrimônio, é um dos lugares mais visitados para aqueles que desejam uma experiência longe da agitação do centro histórico, o Pelourinho, contribuindo para o fortalecimento do turismo cultural sustentável. Neste estudo, foram realizadas análise documental, revisão bibliográfica e observação in loco.

Street trade has existed in Brazil since the colonial period, practised by free blacks and slaves. The aim of this study is to show the changes in this trade in cities such as Rio de Janeiro and Recife, from the Imperial period to the Estado Novo of the Vargas government, marking Eastern influences, especially Islamic, introduced by slaves and Portuguese slaves and colonisers, until the arrival of New European immigrants in the first decades of the 20th century. The study is based on the analysis of extracts and images of works by three authors: Jean-Baptiste Debret, in Viagem pitoresca e histórica ao Brasil (1835-1839); Gilberto Freyre, in Casa-grande & Senzala (1933), Sobrados e mucambos (1936) and Guia prático, histórico e sentimental do Recife (1934); Cecilia Meireles (1941), in the chronicle "Pelas ruas do Rio", published in Travel in Brazil magazine, illustrated with photographs by Jean Manzon. It is also intended to show the intersection between this trade and the conceptions of traveller and tourist.

This study uses a post-feminist lens to examine destination-marketing material connected to three sites in Bergslagen, an area located in the central part of Sweden famous for centuries of mining activity. This region continues to have ongoing mining operations, but has also worked at developing cultural and industrial heritage interpretations of its industrial past. A rich history of development based on mines, quarries and smelting huts has created a foundation for possible re-interpretations of history for tourism and became a ground for representation of metanarratives. In this study we analyse three sites located in the area of Bergslagen ˗ Långban, Axmar Bruk (Axmar mill) and Engelsberg Bruk (Engelsberg mill). On-line textual and visual marketing materials used by these destinations allowed for the analysis of representations of the industrial heritage. Using post-feminist theory, we analysed representations of the industrial heritage in the marketing textual and visual materials of these chosen attractions. Our goal was to find the dominant representations as well as to explore what representations were missing from the stories told to the visitors. Our results show that both images and textual material continue to rely heavily on the representations of patriarchal system of Bergslagen and its industrial heritage, whereas the role of female and ‘other’ alternative narratives continue to be excluded. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of how marketing materials remain as facilitators in upholding male and female stereotypes connected to industrial heritage and the conclusions highlight the continued polarisation of gender through contemporary channels of communication.

A economia compartilhada é uma atividade de peer-to-peer com base na obtenção, concessão ou compartilhamento de acesso a bens e serviços, coordenada através de serviços comunitários online. Tal fenômeno tem afetado o campo do Turismo por meio de diversas plataformas como o Airbnb. O objetivo deste artigo foi propor um modelo teórico para verificar os fatores que contribuem para a propensão de uso de plataformas de economia do compartilhamento no âmbito do turismo, especificamente o Airbnb. Para isso, foi realizado estudo quantitativo com 454 respondentes do Brasil e 446 de Portugal, utilizando análise de modelagem de equações estruturais. Os resultados principais indicaram que a Economia de Custos, a Expectativa de Desempenho, a Expectativa de Experiências Culturais Compartilhadas e de Construção de Vínculos Sociais, a Percepção de Cocriação de Valor e a Perspectiva Anti-indústria têm relação direta com a Propensão para o Uso.

A comunidade científica tem apresentado vários contributos conceptuais e estudos empíricos transdisciplinares associados à perspetiva do Service-Dominant Logic (S-D Logic), onde a indústria do turismo não é excepção. Neste sentido, é de realçar a existência de diversos trabalhos empíricos já desenvolvidos neste domínio, com especial enfoque na cocriação de valor do turista. Este artigo, enfatizando a compreensão do conceito de cocriação de valor do cliente, visa propor um modelo conceptual agregador que permita identificar as diferentes dimensões da cocriação de valor do turista, resultante dos múltiplos contributos empíricos da comunidade científica. Com efeito, este artigo para além de contribuir para uma compreensão mais abrangente das várias dimensões associadas à cocriação de valor do turista na perspetiva do S-D Logic, poderá auxiliar as organizações turísticas, a partir do modelo conceptual proposto, na avaliação do processo de cocriação de valor dos seus clientes, assim como na comunicação e concepção do design de serviço.

This paper explores social capital in the tourism destination of Bohemian Switzerland, located in the north of the Czech Republic. The research uses the synergy view on social capital, which incorporates organisational and institutional actors as well as local community. Through interviewing different types of stakeholders from the destination, data were collected and consequently analysed with the use of thematic analysis. An important element was identified: trust, which is especially necessary in order to facilitate collaboration. Furthermore, positive influence from communication and local engagement in collaborations was noted. In addition, the role of institutions and tourism organisations in the creation and positive demonstration of social capital in a tourism destination was emphasized. Therefore, there is a need to recognise the complementary relationships of different agents in tourism destinations.

Para mejorar ciertas injusticias sociales y problemas medioambientales es necesario modificar el sistema de consumo actual, fomentando un consumo socialmente responsable. El diseño de campañas de concienciación eficaces requiere un conocimiento sobre las actitudes y comportamientos actuales de los consumidores hacia este tipo de consumo. El objetivo de este trabajo es conocer las actitudes y comportamiento de los consumidores hacia el consumo socialmente responsable. Para ello, se ha realizado una encuesta a 415 consumidores españoles. Los resultados reflejan que existe un alto nivel de preocupación por los problemas sociales y ambientales, así como una alta eficacia percibida del consumidor. Sin embargo, aún es bastante bajo el nivel de percepción del beneficio personal. Además, el estudio señala que las acciones de consumo socialmente responsable se pueden agrupar en cinco factores, aunque los consumidores no realizan con la misma intensidad todos ellos actualmente.

Editorial

The article presents the results of an investigation about the meanings that university students give to the learning that occurs in this context. We worked with a qualitative design in order to discover and deepen the dimensions involved in this learning, the definitions about it and the strategies put into play. The sample consisted of twenty-five students of the last year of careers taught at the Paraná Headquarters of the Universidad Católica Argentina (UCA). The focused interview was used. It included the technique of choosing objects that allows the construction of metaphors, in this case of university learning. Thus, the findings allow the notion of university learning to be expanded to fields not directly linked to the academic, cognitive or performance aspects, but to issues that specify the curricular and didactic, subjective, family, relational and teaching dimensions. In addition, they describe the objects of learning (WHAT is learned), elucidate the definitions about it (WHAT it is) and determine strategies for studying and passing, ways of learning and advancing in the career respectively. The conclusions refer to positioning an inescapable psychopedagogical view that articulates different theoretical frameworks.

University studies are crossed by a social environment that makes it difficult to meet others and joint reflection; a context that often tends to the isolation and removal of critical thinking. Faced with this, since 2013 we have developed a working device with workshops and reflection groups with students from Psychology Degree. These devices seek to develop feelings of permanence and belonging to the University, stimulate tolerance, respect, participation, social and institutional commitment, promoting the achievement of ethical and responsible professional subjectivity. In this paper we propose to qualitatively analyze the characteristics of the group ties that were generated within this intervention. To this end, we analyze the participant observation records made from 2013 to 2019. We find that these groups in university offer a prop up that is vitally important to go through the uncertainties inherent to entering the faculty, the vicissitudes of studies and vocational crises that may appear. With others, we find that students discover alternative ways to deal with discomfort and create possibilities that allow them to find a healthier way to deal with the challenges of studying.
