Abstract:
Knowledge of the negative impacts of tourism is an essential prerequisite for sustainability. This study explores the resident perceptions of an educated population on the environment and economic impacts of tourism in Fiji. Using a sample of 298 respondents based on the triple bottom line framework, we construct a model for sustainable tourism planning for Fiji. The structural equation modelling (SEM) approach indicates that awareness of the adverse effects of tourism is vital for the sustainable expansion of the sector and economic development. The current level and type of awareness are nonspecific. The study implies adaptation of sustainability into the education curriculum, enacting uncompromising sustainable acts and policies and forming an independent sustainability national council to vet all tourism developments.

Abstract:
The paper identifies and analyses challenges and issues facing the tourism industry in the most developed South Pacific island state, the Fiji Islands. Many of the challenges identified can be attributed to the interplay among historical factors and events, and the vested interests associated with them. The colonization of Fiji, the historical role of foreign capital in its growth and development, the conflicting socio-economic and political demands of the two major ethnic groups (the indigenous Fijians and immigrant Indo-Fijians), the issue of property rights, and more recently the coups of 1987 and 2000 and the resultant political instability are discussed in relation to the growth and development of the tourism industry. The author also discusses the impact of the coups on the tourism industry and the role of private–public partnerships in the industry's recovery following the coups.

Abstract:
While island resorts in the South Pacific are primarily marketed as sun, sea and sand destinations, cultural dimensions value-add to and diversify the product for mixed audiences. Resort developments require, at minimum, the compliance with legally mandated environmental standards and adherence to national employment legislation. Socio-culturally and environmentally sustainable tourism concepts should exceed mandated environmental standards and be characterised by a close involvement with and respect for the expectations of local host communities who may hold land and/or traditional usufruct rights. But do resort developments comply? Using an example of a resort established on free-hold land during the pioneering days of resort development in Fiji, the aim of this paper is to provide a deliberation of the tension between organic resort development and sustainable tourism on private land. It will show that, where cultural and environmental planning controls were absent, development not only could progress unfettered but also that changes to tourism philosophies are not necessarily reflected in changes to a resort. The island of Malolo Lailai (Viti Levu, Fiji) has a rich and multi-layered history and heritage (Fijian, European and Chinese plantations, resort development) that provides an opportunity to value-add to the tourist experience. In reality, however, the ongoing resort development extinguishes past histories in favour of a post-occupation, twentieth-century colonial settler narrative, where heritage sites are merely allowed to co-exist provided they do not impact on resort development objectives. It demonstrates that, in the absence of external regulatory controls, the resort owner’s philosophy dominates and shapes the tourist experience.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the proposition that the local population at a tourist destination copy the economic behaviour of tourists and learn to give economic value to the same objects and activities that are demonstrated by tourists. Levuka, the old capital of Fiji, served as the case study. It was found that decisions are based on the experiences and the cultural template of which those decisions are a part. There are many acculturating factors involved in the learning process as a subsistance-based economy becomes more monetised. The purchasing habits of tourists have little obvious effect. However, there is evidence that what is of value to tourists and what encourages them to visit the destination are not fully appreciated by many of the host population. Examples of these culturally dissimilar values are externalities such as the physical structures of the built environment and unquantifiable factors such as the ambience of the destination. It is argued that an understanding of the factors that have created cultural rules is necessary if a complete analysis of the effects of tourism is to be undertaken. This can be achieved by considering change as a process and tracing that process by examining the cultural history of the host community. Tourism should be seen as another aspect of change. The response to tourism will then be seen as a new challenge that will be met using the lessons previously learnt and incorporated into the cultural template.

Abstract:
Empirical studies have established that tourism is a major determinant of economic growth and that international air services have a beneficial effect on the growth and development of an economy. It has also been argued that trade and public enterprise reforms in the service sectors, undertaken to a greater extent in high income countries, have had a positive impact on the sectors performances. This study analyses several hypotheses relating to Fiji’s tourism and air transport service industries. First the study examines the contribution of tourism exports to economic growth in the case of Fiji. Second, the study analyses whether the tourism reform adopted by Fiji in 1999 under the World Trade Organization’s General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) has impacted on total tourism export performance. Third, the aviation-service growth nexus is investigated. Lastly, the effect of the aviation public enterprise reform activities on the export performance of air services is evaluated. Using time series annual data from 1968 to 2006, the Auto Regressive Distributed Lag. methodology has been utilized to estimate the contribution of each service sector to Fiji’s total service output. The results show that the tourism is a major determinant of growth in Fiji and that the aviation service-growth hypothesis is also valid for Fiji. The empirical results show that both the trade reforms in tourism and the pro-competitive measures undertaken in the airline industry, amongst other determinants, have not significantly created an impact on the respective export performance of tourism and air services. These findings provide key policy implications in the light of capitalizing on services exports as a major source of growth, particularly in developing island countries such as Fiji and the need to facilitate the strengthening of the market to boost the export performance of tourism and air services.

Abstract:
The present study examines the role of native landowners in the operation of Fiji's parks and reserves. It is anticipated that the attitude and level of involvement of native landowners will depend upon the level of economic and/or tourism development that has occured in the particular park and reserve. It is also anticipated that hostility and antagonism towards the park and reserve system will occur in certain areas where the prevailing arrangements are not perceived as delivering tangible benefits or where alternative forms of activity are available to the native landowners.

Abstract:
The roles of culture and entrepreneurial disposition in entrepreneurship have been widely researched. Some researchers have concluded that an individualist culture fosters entrepreneurial disposition and entrepreneurship while a collectivist culture retards them. Others have argued that collectivism does not have much bearing on these two factors. The present research explored entrepreneurship in Fiji's small tourism business sector by focusing on the roles of cultural values and entrepreneurial disposition displayed by the three ethnic groupings. The question of whether successful Fijian entrepreneurship could develop by a fusion of collectivism and entrepreneurial principles was also explored. Ninety-nine respondents from the private, public and semi-public organisations participated in the qualitative survey and a further sixty-two people participated in the quantitative survey. One hundred and twenty-three students took part in the quantitative component of the research. The results of the qualitative data showed that individualism contributed to the entrepreneurial disposition of entrepreneurs belonging to the Indo-Fijian and Others categories, but the quantitative data produced mixed results. Other significant factors that have influenced entrepreneurship amongst these groups include exposure to good educational facilities, risk-taking skills, hard work and perseverance, sound financial management, ability to raise capital, values of materialism and capitalism, prudent business planning, skills of savings and investment, good management skills, and building investment capital. It was found that Fijian entrepreneurship was considerably impeded by collectivism and associated behaviour, and they showed more success in collective capitalism. Other factors that have stifled Fijian entrepreneurship include poor education, lack of hard work and commitment, poor financial management, absence of material culture, inability to raise venture capital, short term planning perspective, and a lack of ability to save funds for future investment. Students from the three ethnic groupings were found to exhibit different degrees of entrepreneurial disposition, but generally displayed similar values of individualism and collectivism. Based on these findings, a reconceptualised model of entrepreneurship was proposed, which shows the interaction of various specifiable contextual variables which influence entrepreneurship.

Abstract:
Los molinos chilenos, dispersos en localidades distantes entre sí, merecen una atención especial, por cuanto representan un recurso de hondo significado cultural. A modo de ejemplo, se pondrá atención en exponentes de tres sectores rurales de fuerte identidad, como son: Pañul, Frutillar y Chiloé. El modelo de gestión puede encontrarse en España, donde estos artefactos han alcanzado prestigio y admiración. En Chile, mientras tanto, hace falta recorrer un camino largo antes de que estos bienes formen parte de los planes oficiales de salvaguardia patrimonial. La creciente y diferenciada demanda que ha tenido en las últimas décadas el sector turístico ha motivado la creación de nuevas variantes, sostenidas sobre el reconocimiento de los bienes patrimoniales. Entre esas variantes aparece el turismo alternativo, que fija su atención en aquellos bienes aún poco valorados. Los molinos de agua, enclavados en el paisaje campesino, son potenciales motivos de inclusión en este tipo de turismo. Mills Chilean, scattered in distant locations together, deserve special attention, as they represent a resource of cultural meaning proof. By way of example, be care exponents of three strong identity rural sectors, such as: Pañul, Frutillar and Chiloé. The management model can be found in Spain, where these artifacts have attained prestige and admiration. In Chile, meanwhile, need to go a long way before these assets form part of official plans for safeguarding heritage. Differential and growing demand that has had in recent decades tourism has prompted the creation of new variants, sustained on the recognition of the assets. Among those variants appears alternative tourism, which fixed his attention on those little valued goods. Water mills, nestled in the rural landscape, are potential reasons for inclusion in this type of tourism.
