- Sweden has a vast quantity of forests and the Right of Common Access allows tourists to freely enter any forest no matter who owns it. An economic valuation study was carried out in two tourism areas, one in the southern part of the country and one in the northern part. It was shown that a considerable portion of the value to tourists is attributable to forest characteristics. Furthermore, the results suggest that this value can be increased by modifying forest management practices; for example, by making clearcuts smaller, even if there were more of them, and by increasing the proportion of broad leaved trees in forest stands.

Risk Creation in Traveling - Backpacker adventure narration
- 2001
-
Ingår i: Annals of Tourism Research. - 0160-7383 .- 1873-7722. ; 28:3, s. 597-617
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper addresses, through examples from in-depth interviews with long-term budget travelers, how culturally and socially constructed narratives about risk and adventure are manifested hv individuals in backpacker communities. Such manifestation is carried out through consumption of, for instance, experiences, plates, food, medicine, and clothing. It is argued that tales and acts of "risk and adventure" work particularly well in individuals' efforts to "narrate identity". The paper also addresses a need for more gender sensitive research, through suggesting that adventurous women mar be caught in an intersection between two logical systems. the reflexive life project of "late modernity" open to both genders and the adventure as a historically rounded masculine practice.

Changes in Skiing and Snowmobiling in Swedish Mountains
- 2003

Ingår i: Annals of Tourism Research. - 0160-7383 .- 1873-7722. ; 30:2, s. 485-488

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This research note examines the changes in mountain tourism in Sweden during the last 20 years (1980-2000), asking in which areas mountain tourism is increasing or decreasing, what the changes in different activity participation rates are, and what might account for those changes. It is indicated that the southern-most county of the mountain region (Dalarna) had become the most popular location by the late 1990s. The increasing visits to this area close to the Swedish population centres may be related to the occurrence of shorter vacations and increased demand on people's time. Not only the geography of mountain visits is changing, but activities are changing as well. Downhill skiing (including snowboarding) had increased from 22% in the 1980s to 36% in the 1990s, while snowmobiling had increased from 9% in the 1980s to 16% in the 1990s.

Value propositions during service mega-disruptions : Exploring value co-creation and value co-destruction in service recovery
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Annals of Tourism Research. - : Elsevier Ltd.. - 0160-7383. ; 97, s. 1-14
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper explores value co-creation and co-destruction by focusing on the role of value propositions, practices, and institutions in the tourism ecosystem during COVID-19. Customers that had experienced travel cancellations were interviewed. The findings indicate that during service mega-disruptions, customers re-evaluate resources and value propositions by prioritizing eudemonic well-being, demonstrating at the same time sympathy for the tourism firms' well-being. However, consumers expect reciprocity, honesty, transparency, and flexibility from tourism firms. The service mega-disruption of COVID-19 provoked a misalignment of practices and routines that led to value co-destruction. This paper proposes that value co-creation can be achieved during a service mega-disruption when actors demonstrate more altruism, solidarity, and shared intentions to maximize or protect the well-being of the ecosystem's actors.

Visitor flows, trajectories and corridors : planning and designing places from the traveler's point of view
- 2020

Ingår i: Annals of Tourism Research. - : Elsevier. - 0160-7383 .- 1873-7722. ; 82:May, s. 1-13

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Recent research underlines the importance of understanding the tourist destination as a demand-driven construct. Visitors activate different configurations of supply elements that produce a complex and dynamic fabric referred to as a space of flows. Today, we have the means to understand how these flows shape the evolution and gestalt of tourist places. This article proposes a new framework combining three concepts and related foundational theories: visitor flows, trajectories, and corridors. In tandem, they describe how tourism manifests itself in space and time. Trip decision, trip execution, and tourist performance unfold through social mechanisms generating the totality of visitor flows. Stakeholders must understand how visitor flows in their destinations emerge and evolve in order to decide on specific design interventions.

Limits to mass tourism’s effects in rural peripheries
- 2015
-
Ingår i: Annals of Tourism Research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0160-7383. ; 50:1, s. 98-112
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Economic linkages between mass tourism cores and rural peripheries are widely proposed as developmental. This article adopts a livelihoods approach to investigate the influence of a major Cambodian tourism destination on its rural hinterland. A quantitative pre-study of three rural villages indicated that links were mainly indirect, through labour migration. The qualitative main phase found villagers adapting skills and social networks to a range of employments in diverse locations. Poor households in the rural periphery were thus already connected to wider economies with tourism playing a distinctive low-risk, low-return role in their livelihood strategies. Policy on poverty and tourism should be informed by an understanding of rural households’ existing livelihood portfolios and the strategic contingent decisions which shape them.

A wider research culture in peril: A reply to Thomas

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper calls for greater rigor when it comes to issues relating to research around the ‘impact’ of research impact. It addresses some of its criticisms but also expands on the research program associated with the impact of tourism research. We conclude by addressing the fundamentality of the challenges posed by ‘research impact’. We argue they go to the very core of academic scholarship, as the commoditized neoliberal treatment of impact represents an existential challenge that goes beyond tourism research.
