Dark Tourism And The Cadaveric Carnival: Mediating Life And Death Narratives At Gunter Von Hagens' Body Worlds, Philip Stone Dr
Dark Tourism And The Cadaveric Carnival: Mediating Life And Death Narratives At Gunter Von Hagens' Body Worlds, Philip Stone Dr
Dr Philip Stone
Death is universal, yet dying is not. Consequently, within contemporary secularised society, the process of dying has largely been relocated from the familiar environs of the family and community to a back region of medical and death industry professionals. It is argued that this institutional sequestration of death has made modern dying ‘bad’ against a romantic portrayal of a death with dignity, or a ‘good’ death. Moreover, the structural analysis of death reveals issues of ontological security and mortality meaning for the Self. This paper, therefore, adds to that analysis, and specifically examines the construction of mortality meaning within the …
Human Resource Development And 'Casualisation' In Hotels And Resorts In Eastern Australia: Getting The Best To The Customer?, Grant Cairncross, Stephen Kelly
Human Resource Development And 'Casualisation' In Hotels And Resorts In Eastern Australia: Getting The Best To The Customer?, Grant Cairncross, Stephen Kelly
Adjunct Professor Stephen J Kelly
This paper provides an analysis of human resource development and knowledge capital management relations practices used by hotels and resorts in 2007. The study examined the employment instruments used, methods of employee recruitment, selection, staff turnover trends, remuneration policies, attitudes to knowledge capital and the application of service quality measurement. The findings indicate that larger foreign-owned organisations have adopted more innovative approaches than smaller Australian-owned hotels and resorts, while skill shortages and generational attitude changes have driven more inventive retention strategies in both groups. It was also found that in spite of the adoption of more enlightened human resource strategies, …

Sacred Hospitality, Thomas A. Maier
Sacred Hospitality, Thomas A. Maier
Thomas A. Maier
Sacred Hospitality explores the nature, meaning, and commonality of values exemplified in the Judeo-Christian tradition beginning with the singular hospitality event of Abraham's welcoming and hosting traveling visitors. Such hospitality entails food, drink and accommodation of and for others, more importantly, genuine hospitality is possible only when persons know who they are, having a self to give, and are happy to share that self with others. In order to offer and practice hospitality in a Sacred context we have to take a look around and welcome others who are in need.
Dark Tourism: Towards A New Post-Disciplinary Research Agenda, Philip Stone Dr
Dark Tourism: Towards A New Post-Disciplinary Research Agenda, Philip Stone Dr
Dr Philip Stone
Abstract: Over the past decade or so, dark tourism research –that is, the social scientific study of tourism and tourists associated with sites of death, disaster or the seemingly macabre – has witnessed a burgeoning of the literature base. Much of this research has a profundity that can and, undoubtedly, will contribute to broader social theories and to our understanding of culturaldynamics. Arguably, however, some dark tourism research has been characterised by a banality that either illustrates deficient conceptual underpinning or provides for limited disciplinary synthesis. Thus, in order to assuage any structural deficiencies in dark tourism as a coherent …
