Markets are increasingly considered as gastronomy tourism attractions, food - and its origin - becoming a meaningful souvenir for visitors and tourists. Within this context, this research note aims to analyse the origin of cheeses delivered in city markets. To achieve it, the Spanish municipal market of Valencia was studied, where a total of 267 cheeses were classified according to their provenance. Findings show a similar presence of local, national and international cheeses. The originality of this study lies on the implications that the origin of food may have for cultural, gastronomy and cheese tourism practices.

Biogas production has recently expanded across the post-communist Central European countries. This paper addresses the role of biogas plants based on agricultural resources (agri-food waste and agricultural crops) as a new factor of rural development in Poland and Slovakia, and so it contributes to the comprehensive research on effects of agricultural biogas energy production. The analysis is based on a set of quantitative and qualitative methods, and the results are thoroughly illustrated by two case studies of agricultural biogas plants representing specific features and circumstances of biogas plants in both countries. The results reveal mutual...

The negative impact of terrorist activity on international tourism has been repeatedly reported on from many studies in the past. However, the results of these studies are consistent only for developing countries with low political stability. In the case of developed countries with a stable political regime, the findings are contradictory, varying from studies that have registered a significant negative impact of terrorism on tourism to studies reporting no significant relationship between these variables. The aim of this paper is to present new information about the relationship between terrorism and tourism in developed countries. For this reason,...

The background of the current research is that despite the existence of a vast amount of literature devoted to the study of post-socialist transition processes, there is a relative scarcity of international comparative analyses on Central and Southeast European metropolises. The research seeks to explore FDI-driven transformation and development processes in Central and Southeast European regional centres in the post-transition period. The geographical focus of the analysis is limited to Central and Southeast European post-socialist states, while the scale of the analysis targets the metropolitan and regional level. The present study provides a brief...

The affluent society and its leisure lifestyle and luxury consumption can influence the future tourism trends. One key prerequisite shaping the future of luxury tourism is the shift in values from the material to the experiential purchases. It is related to the assumption that money spent on experiences can satisfy various people's needs. Moreover, the luxury consumption displays wealth and social status. This exploratory study, based on the questionnaire survey among clients of one of the Czech luxury tour operators, analyses the Czech luxury tourism market segment and reveals the luxury-driven attitudes and consumption patterns. In conclusion, the...

The remarkable social urban rehabilitation effort of the Győr Municipality which has recently been implemented and is currently in progress led to the considerable development of Győr-Újváros, not only in the renewal of the actual built environment but also in the social improvement of the inhabitants. In our study we will look at the Győr urban development project in three dimensions. First we explore its feasibility. Why is it Újváros that needed rehabilitation? Strategic documents and relating statistics prove the choice feasible: it is the place where the most significant segregation can be found in Győr that needed intervention. Secondly, we analyse...
