In this study, the behavior is the support or against of the local communities to the tourism development. Attitudes can serve functions for the individual (Katz, 1960). According to Katz (1960), there are four functional areas, one of the areas is knowledge. Knowledge means attitude provide meaning for life. This allows us to predict what is likely to happen. Knowing a person’s attitude helps us predict their behavior. According to Myers (2010), attitude can define as a favorable or unfavorable evaluative reaction toward something or someone which often rooted in one’s beliefs, and exhibited in one’s feelings and intended behavior.
Local attitudes may be described as the group of beliefs, predispositions, and the behavior (or the intention of) towards specific aspects of tourism such as its impacts, planning and development, the tourists and their behavior and any other tangible or intangible manifestation of tourism activity (Monterrubio & Bello,

2.3.2 Doxey’s Irridex Model
Doxey's 'Irridex' model or Irritation Index (1975) was one of the first models of residents' attitudes towards tourists and tourism. The model suggests that resident attitudes change over time, becoming more negative as tourism development and tourist influx increased (Akkawi, 2010). Besides, Harill (2004) also stated that Doxey’s Irridex model is the best-known models of resident attitudes. This model was actually developed by Doxey (1975) where the model includes four stages which are:
i. Euphoria- the stage where local community giving cooperation with tourism development. ii. Apathy- the stage where local community have a direct or formal contact with the tourists. iii. Annoyance- the stage where local community feel irritate due to increase of investment and infrastructure which will disturb their daily life. iv. Antagonism- the stage where local community show their irritate expression through verbally and
You fight it. You denounce it. You disarm it. Indifference elicits no response. Indifference is not a response.”
But displeasure is a really light term for what's happening right now in global, not just national, politics. You've probably heard about the riots that are unfolding in most major American cities to protest Trump's election, usually branded with the slogan;
The author uses words such as hate to describe the anger
In The Outrage Industry, Berry and Sobieraj argue that the topic of media outrage is very multidimensional. Outrage is defined as avstrong reaction with anger, shock, or rage. In the political context, this could be how citizens react to a speech a politician has made, commentary between politicians aired on television, and or commentary between political journalists. America loves sensationalism. When the media broadcasts negatively charged reactions between political journalists or politicians, their ratings go up.
Explosive emotional reaction out of all proportion to the occasion. Why? Why this unreasonable anger at the sight of others who are happy or content, this growing contempt for people and the desire to hurt them? All right, you think
Failures of this development could result in feelings of incompetence and doubt. Initiative vs. guilt, the third stage takes place within three to five years of age, during which children gain a sense of purpose and balance playing with others. However, children may face guilt as a result of unsuccessful play attempts. The fourth stage, industry vs. inferiority, takes place among children of five to eleven years of age. During this development children develop competence and belief within themselves, gaining a sense of freedom and self-determination.
“Marcel Oms describes this action in term of aggression against bourgeois perceptions of reality.” (1995, p. 77) This action could be interpreted as a uncontrollable emotion, possibly when the generational anger has transitioned to
The third stage is intensified conflict. Intensified conflict is a major conflict. It has to deal with a third party and a countermovement. It's recognized as dangerous and intense opposition. The final stage is dramatic denouement.
Throughout the essay, Kincaid, brings up a bunch of key points on why tourism is degrading to the natives. Much like how tourists tend to over-romanticized poverty. How the local’s homes, clothes, and bathrooms are worthy of your time. But, it’s not like tourists do not hate you either. Your bad manners, the way you speak, down to the the way you try to mimic their eating.
Community Policing is the system of allocating police officers to areas so that they become familiar with local inhabitants. It is used to change the way police departments interact with the public, focusing on community concerns, including crimes. The idea of community policing is to work together to improve the life and quality in their neighborhoods. Community Policing emerged in the 1970’s with the goal to eliminate public disenchantment with police services and the criticisms of the lack of police professionalism (Fagin pg. 114). They identify and resolve issues which potentially affect the way neighborhoods live.
IDENTIFY AND RESEARCH A TOURISM ATTRACTION Introduction Tourism has experienced continued growth and extensive diversification and competition on the last decades, becoming one of the fastest growing economic sectors in the world and by consequence, one of the main income sources for many developing countries. “Every time we travel we are part of a global movement that has the power to drive inclusive development, to create jobs and to build the sustainable societies we want for our future,” says the actual UNWTO¹ Secretary General, Taleb Rifai. “This movement also contributes to build mutual understanding and to safeguard our shared natural and cultural heritage,” he completes. A sustainable and responsible approach to tourism means that neither the natural environment nor the socio-cultural organisation of the host communities would be compromised by the arrival of tourists.
Benefits of Tourism Tourism is an important activity that people has undertaken for a very long time in the most countries around the world. In recent time it has been recognized as an important social and economic phenomenon. As well as its direct effect it has indirect effects both on the society and at the individual level. . The interaction between tourists and poor communities can provide a number of intangible and practical benefits. These can range from increased awareness of cultural, environmental, and economic issues and values, on both sides, to mutual benefits from improved local investment in infrastructure.
Therefore, tourism may be defined as the activities, processes and outcomes by the relationship and interaction among the tourist, government, suppliers of the tourism, the host communities and the environment that surrounding the destination which involved in attracting and accommodating of the visitors (Goeldner & Ritchie, 2009). According to Goelner & Ritchie (2009), there are four different perspectives of tourism can be identified from the tourist, business operator who providing goods and services, government of the host destination area and the local community. The first group is the tourists or visitors. They are the group who search for various travel experiences and satisfaction physically and psychologically.
Tourism can be considered one of the most significant economic and social phenomena of the twentieth and twenty-first century. The evolving of the tourist’s behavior has triggered a series of changes in the way of operating the tourism businesses. From traditional travel agencies, hotels and airlines up to the online tour operators. All tour operators have had to adapt to the changes of the individual as a traveler and this has led to continuous development of strategies by the agents.
The concept brings proofs on how people spend their time, in which areas and for which purposes. (Nash, 1960, cited in Morgan…). As the people spend their time on different activities, one of those activities is tourism. As well as leisure, tourism has many definitions; we will use one of those which reflect main idea.
