Borderland "Day Tourists" From The East: Trieste's Transitory Shopping Fair, Julian V. Minghi Jan 1999

Borderland "Day Tourists" From The East: Trieste's Transitory Shopping Fair, Julian V. Minghi

Visions in Leisure and Business

Flows of people across international boundaries to shop have long been a common phenomenon. The end of the Cold War removed barriers to such flows from Eastern to Western Europe and gave rise to a distinctive strain of borderland shopper-officially a "day tourist" from Central Europe, but in reality a professional shopper working as an essential part of an international retail distribution system linking supply from the West to consumption in the East. The case of Trieste (Italy) is examined. The city's borderland shoppers became important during the late 1980s and activity peaked in 1993-5 as bus loads of Central …

Cross-Border Shopping: Tourism In The Canada-United States Borderlands, Dallen J. Timothy Jan 1999

Cross-Border Shopping: Tourism In The Canada-United States Borderlands, Dallen J. Timothy

Visions in Leisure and Business

This research note examines the phenomenon of cross-border shopping between the United States and Canada as a form of borderlands tourism. This activity has always existed in the region and has traditionally been characterized by high but consistent numbers of Canada-to-US flows and lower but consistent numbers of US-to-Canada flows. However, in 1997, owing to an increase in value of the Canadian dollar and other economic variables, the number of Canadian shopping trips to the United States increased dramatically until 1992, when the value of the Canadian dollar began to fall. This in tum has led to the rapid increase …


Variability Of Tourist Attraction On An International Boundary: Sonora, Mexico Border Towns, Daniel D. Arreola, Kenneth Madsen Jan 1999

Variability Of Tourist Attraction On An International Boundary: Sonora, Mexico Border Towns, Daniel D. Arreola, Kenneth Madsen

Visions in Leisure and Business

This paper explores how and why tourism and tourist districts in border towns vary along a single international boundary. A perception about Mexican border tourism holds that the boundary itself is the primary stimulus to development. While almost every Mexican border town has some tourist function, the nature and extent of that activity will vary with a host of exogenous factors. We argue that Mexican border city tourism is largely a function of these diverse external factors more than simply a presence on the international boundary. Successful tourism in the Mexican border cities is linked to historic advantage and age …


North-South Divide: The Role Of The Border In Tourism To Northern Ireland, Stephen Boyd Jan 1999

North-South Divide: The Role Of The Border In Tourism To Northern Ireland, Stephen Boyd

Visions in Leisure and Business

Using the case study of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, this paper addresses a number of key issues related to borders and tourism: attractivity and co-operation. Visitor data from 1994 to 1997, reveals that the border itself does not function as a tourist attraction, but rather there is sufficient attraction within what is identified in the paper as a border zone. Attention is given to examining heritage attractions (those receiving over 5000 per year, and those that are free) as the position taken in the paper is that heritage tourism best encapsulates the experience available …


Cross-Border Trips By Canadians And Americans And The Differential Impact Of The Border, Livio Di Matteo Jan 1999

Cross-Border Trips By Canadians And Americans And The Differential Impact Of The Border, Livio Di Matteo

Visions in Leisure and Business

Same day automobile trips have been used as a barometer of cross-border shopping between Canada and the United States. The determinants of same day automobile crossborder trips by Canadians and Americans are examined using regression analysis and the results find that key determinants are lagged trips, per capita income, the real exchange rate and seasonal factors. The coefficient on lagged trips is larger for Canada than for the United States suggesting that, over time, Canadians adjust more rapidly to the desired number of trips than Americans. More intriguing is the fact that while income is positive for Canadian same day …
