What this set covers
Resort development and its effects on host communities fill this set. The Butler model, Doxey's Irridex, leakage, the multiplier effect, enclave tourism, ecotourism, community-based tourism, Olympic legacy, mass and niche tourism, and commodification appear.
- Common mix-up
- Students often mix up leakage and the multiplier effect: leakage is tourist spending that leaves the host economy, while the multiplier is extra local spending and jobs that spending creates.
- Revision tip
- Take one resort and place it on the Butler model, then say where Doxey's Irridex attitudes would sit at each stage.
