L'écotourisme visité par les acteurs territoriaux
Face au modèle dominant d’aménagement de grands complexes hôteliers conçus pour satisfaire les besoins du tourisme de masse recherchant le soleil, la plage et l’amusement, l’écotourisme apparaît comme une solution réaliste de développement durable. Ce nouveau modèle, basé sur la conservation de l’environnement et sur la participation des communautés locales à l’activité touristique, représente un marché en croissance grandement convoité. Trois décennies après l’apparition de la notion d’écotourisme, qu’en est-il au juste ? Parlons-nous toujours d’un tourisme aux pratiques alternatives et responsables ou d’un concept marketing vide de sens dédié d’ab...
L'écotourisme, entre l’arbre et l’écorce
Comment analyser un projet à caractère touristique ? est-il écologiquement soutenable ? socialement viable ? économiquement durable ? À quelles conditions l'écotourisme peut-il créer une richesse collective, une plus-value sociale Pour réfléchir à ces questions, nous avons privilégié : des trajectoires plurielles, en provenance de la France, des Caraïbes, de l'Australie, du Costa Rica, du Nunavut et du Québec, tantôt sous l'angle économique, social ou culturel, tantôt sous l'angle de l'écotouriste, de l'opérateur, du parc ou de la communauté ou encore sous celui de la forêt, de la terre ou de la mer.
Representation and Democratic Theory
With public confidence in representative institutions dropping to distressing levels, it is time for political theorists to reconnect issues of representation to considerations of justice, rights, citizenship, pluralism, and community. Representation and Democratic Theory investigates theoretical and practical aspects of innovative political representation in the early twenty-first century. It reveals the complexity of contemporary political representation and the importance of re-invigorating public life outside legislatures, political parties, and competitive elections. A crucial supplement to empirical studies of conventional political representation this book offers a timely and thought-provoking contribution to contemporary democratic theory. It will be a necessary and welcome addition to the libraries of many political and social scientists.
Polar Tourism
The creation of the Nunavik is a major step forward, both for the Province of Quebec and its Inuit population. Not only does it underline the recognition of the Inuit people and their identity but it also stresses the importance of discussing some fundamental issues regarding the emancipation of the Inuit, their empowerment, the development and management of the northern resources of Quebec, and the protection and conservation of the fragile Nordic ecosystems. Rich in culture and scenery, Nunavik has identified tourism as one of the main and best suited avenue for economic development. But before Nunavik can truly enjoy the benefits of a well established tourism “industry”, many challeng...

Social and Environmental Impacts in the North: Methods in Evaluation of Socio-Economic and Environmental Consequences of Mining and Energy Production in the Arctic and Sub-Arctic
Future development in the Arctic and Subarctic region requires careful attention to the possible consequences of the development activities themselves, in relation to their environmental, socioeconomic and cultural impacts. A more thorough understanding of the impact of future activities, however, demands the dissemination and confrontation of results from different regions and different scientific traditions. This requires scientific cooperation, not only across disciplines but across border. Primarily it requires both consensus and innovations in regard to methods. This book confronts such differences in approaches and methods in relation to the analysis of socioeconomic and environmental consequences of large-scale mineral and energy development activities in the Arctic and Subarctic, establishing the common ground upon which future research activities can be based.
