    Description / Table of Contents: The enormous leaps of growth and development experienced by Eastern and Southeast Asian states since the 1960s on account of their astonishing industrial development have led to concerns that a resulting global economic and political shift might favour the »Pacific region« at the expense of the »Atlantic region«. A »Pacific century« was proclaimed, in which it was predicted that Asian-Pacific countries would outpace the traditional leading powers of the West. A more careful look quickly reveals that this view is too simplistic. From the point of view of various disciplines and covering different nations like China, Vietnam, Indonesia, Singapore, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea the authors of this publication pursue the question whether the 21st century can already be labelled the »Pacific Century«. This was also the title of the interdisciplinary series of lectures held at the University of Göttingen/Germany in the winter semester 2003/2004. This series of lectures was jointly organized by the Department of Geography, the University of Göttingen and the Association of Pacific Studies e.V. (APSA). This 10th volume of the publication series »Pazifik Forum« contains contributions by W. Kreisel, M. Taube & Ka-Wai Yiu, M. Waibel, A. Croissant, B. Dahm, H. Schneider, R. Seib and R. Jordan.

    Description: An increasing number of the people responsible for promoting tourism understand the necessity of landscape conservation and sustainable development. Sustainability and the maintenance of regional identity depend on the kind of tourism that takes account of the landscape and stops short of a blind modification of it, for instance through the installation of inappropriate large-scale tourist infrastructure. Since the 1970s South Tyrol, Italy’s most northern province (Autonome Provinz Bozen/Südtirol; Provincia Autonoma di Bolzano/Alto Adige), has engaged in tourism of outstanding quality, centreed on the existing landscape potential. Until today this has been the basis for successful tourism development. In the meantime however, there have been calls in South Tyrol for a quantitative expansion, founded on the implementation of an artificial touristic infrastructure and products. As is the case in many other alpine regions, this could be detrimental to the quality of the landscape. Supported by tourism research and based on the authors’ own long-standing experience, this article analyzes the development and trends of tourism in South Tyrol from a geographical perspective and takes a critical look at the various planning prospects and the problems which might evolve for the landscape and for tourism marketing.

    Description: The central task of tourism research is to advocate for sustainability. In order to do justice to the various components relating to tourism, such as aspects of the natural and cultural landscape as well as the economic, sociocultural and political situation, an integrative approach is necessary. The “landscape” is the foundation of tourism. Landscapes have their own value, a value that visitors and even locals are often not conscious of. “Landscape interpretation” and “heritage interpretation” attempt to remedy this defi cit by defi ning, vividly presenting and “staging” the essential aspects of a landscape. This makes it possible to enhance awareness of the value of a landscape and its need to be protected, thereby achieving a positive change in the behaviour of visitors. The present volume introduces various initiatives, which illustrate the importance of landscape interpretation for tourism research.
    Description: Die zentrale Aufgabe der Tourismusforschung ist es, Advokat der Nachhaltigkeit zu sein. Um den verschiedenen den Tourismus betreffenden Komponenten, also den natur- und kulturlandschaftlichen, wirtschaftlichen, sozio-kulturellen und politischen Aspekten Rechnung tragen zu können, ist ein integrativer Ansatz nötig. Die „Landschaft“ stellt die Grundlage des Tourismus dar. Landschaften haben ihren eigenen Wert, dessen sich die Besucher, aber auch die Bewohner häufig nicht bewusst sind. Diesem Defizit versucht die „Landschaftsinterpretation“ abzuhelfen, indem sie die wesentlichen landschaftlichen Aspekte definiert, anschaulich vorstellt und inszeniert. Dadurch kann das Bewusstsein für den Wert einer Landschaft und ihre Schutzwürdigkeit gesteigert und das Verhalten der Besucher positiv verändert werden. Der vorliegende Band stellt verschiedene Initiativen vor, anhand derer die Bedeutung der Landschaftsinterpretation für die Tourismusforschung deutlich wird.

    Description: Die Geowissenschaften können interessante geowissenschaftliche Potenziale definieren. Unsere unique selling proposition liegt darin, dass wir vom Raum und seinen Elementen ausgehen. Spezialisierungen sind erforderlich, jedoch keine Beschränkung auf das eigene Fachgebiet: Man muss ein offenes Ohr für die ganzheitliche Betrachtungsweise des Tourismus sowie die Voraussetzungen und Konsequenzen möglicher touristischer Inwertsetzung behalten. Die Betrachtung des gesamten Wirkungsgefüges unter Einbeziehung unserer einzelnen Bausteine ist dabei ein Beitrag zum nachhaltigen Tourismus.
