The One

In the light of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is crucial to manage tourist destinations to allow the recovery of tourism on the one hand and reduce its negative impact on the environment and the local community on the other. Information provided via social media (SM) by both residents and tourists can help restart tourism. This paper identifies ways of sharing travel experiences by tourists on social media. The research was conducted in Poland on a sample of 271 respondents from each generation using questionnaires. Results showed that the way tourists use SM during and after their trip differs by generation and gender what could be used in promoting responsible behaviour for sustainable tourism. Differences between generations can be observed in behaviours such as ongoing planning the trip, obtaining information about the place to stay, keeping a photo album for friends, and writing reviews. Moreover, more often than men, women use SM to obtain information about the place of stay and share their impressions of the trip by sending MMS or emails. Tracking tourists’ travel behaviour on social media will allow city managers to gather information and respond to their needs and expectations and ensure effective urban management and city promotion.

Practical Sense

When local communities are allowed to participate fully in tourism trade activities either through supplying goods and services or direct employment in the tourism sector-inclusiveness of tourism, trade can be realized in a practical sense. Research indicates that, in most tourist destinations in Africa, the tourism trade continues to be characterized by environmental and social-cultural degradation and inadequate local community participation associated with revenue leakages and weak economic linkages. The mechanism on how tourism trade contributes inclusively on local communities' benefits such as inclusive growth and poverty alleviation remains unclear. Despite destination economies engaging in services liberalization, little evidence exists on how such trade policies have been beneficial at enhancing inclusive benefits of the tourism trade. Therefore, this chapter aims to clarify how trade policies can be employed to promote the inclusiveness of the tourism trade.

The Impact

Chapter 8 discusses the impact of digital media on collective memory. The chapter examines both the positive and negative impact of digital and social media. On the one hand, the analysis notes how digital media provided the channels for memory mobilization and the archives for memory transmission. On the other hand, the analysis examines the problematics of memory balkanization. It explicates how political forces have shaped the development of digital and social media in Hong Kong and how competing representations of the Tiananmen Incident and commemoration activities are articulated and reinforced within distinctive memory silos.

The Impact

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of mobile social media functions on explicit and implicit knowledge sharing under the “Guanxi” system based on the framework of stimulus–organism–response (SOR). Design/methodology/approach Combined with Guanxi theory, this paper designs an experiment to collect data from the new product development (NPD) teams. Findings Interestingly, the results show that the effect of social media communication function on employees is greater than the impact of collaboration on employees. Specifically, on the one hand, the more employees communicate in social media, the better their feelings will be, the less they will share knowledge. On the other hand, the collaboration function has a significantly negative impact on the psychological factors of employees. Excessively close cooperation and contact may instead create a contradiction between the employees, which is not conducive to the occurrence of knowledge sharing. Originality/value This paper extends SOR framework by combining Guanxi theory to examine the relationship between social media functions and knowledge sharing behavior (KSB). In practical, companies should pay attention to the frequency of employee using social media when it is introduced for NPD teams to control the negative influence of social media functions on employee KSB.

The Relationship

There has hardly been any other development that has changed our everyday lives as significantly as digitalisation, and there is hardly anything as commonplace as neighbourship. Despite the links between these two concepts growing, they have been neglected in social science research in Germany so far. The prevailing sentiment is that the Internet and social media sites have no connection to the real world, but there are countless neighbourship groups on Facebook, Twitter hashtags named after neighbourhoods or entire websites, such as ‘nebenan.de’, which endeavour to strengthen local community bonds through digital means. In short, the social developments in this respect are already considerably more advanced than the knowledge that exists about it. This anthology makes a fundamental contribution to the sociological debate on digitalisation and neighbourship by aiming to provide an overview of the relationship between digitalisation and neighbourship on the one hand, and open up avenues for further research on the other. It therefore examines and systematises attempts to strengthen local community bonds using digital media from different perspectives.

On the one hand, the development of social media can provide convenience to the community, both in communication, in developing science and in the economic aspect. But on the other hand, the development of social media also has a negative impact on society. One of the negative impacts of using social media is that it can cause personality disorders, give birth to narcissistic attitudes and behaviors and can interfere with mental health. This study aims to describe the narcissistic personality disorder, the symptoms of a person experiencing narcissistic personality disorder, efforts to overcome narcissistic personality disorder and the relationship between narcissistic personality and mental health. The method used is a research library. The data collection technique used document study, then analyzed using content analysis. The results of the discussion show that narcissistic personality disorder is basically a personality disorder caused by a person's excessive attitude or behavior in seeing himself. If the narcissistic personality causes disruption of life functions, it will have the potential to disrupt mental health.

It has been suggested that oral mucosa diseases related to stress have a negative impact on the quality of life. However, the information regarding which aspects are the most affected is inconclusive. The objective was to compare the quality of life associated with oral health in two groups: Cases formed by 21 patients coming from a teaching clinic, suffering oral lichen planus, recurrent aphthous stomatitis, and burning mouth syndrome; Control formed by 42 healthy subjects matched for age and gender. Oral Health Impact Profile questionnaire was applied. Statistical analysis showed that group Cases has worse quality of life (p 0.03) than the one of controls, specifically on psychological discomfort (p 0.027), physical disability (p 0.004); and handicap dimensions (p 0.002; RM 5.63 IC1.58-20.80). It was concluded that patients suffering oral mucosa disease related to stress showed poor quality of life.

The world in which we live is seen, on the one hand as a global village in some sense and, on the other, as a divided geography. In other words, it is localized and ghettoized simultaneously. The everyday life that transforms rapidly and in an amorphous notion bears testimony to the rise of new identities and belongings as well as new opposition and disengagement. This dilemma generates new and different notion of tension and conflict. Body and gender are considerably significant paradigms in terms of showing and representing this sense of physical, mental and ideological separation; so much so that they change continuously in the shade of freedom and security deadlock. As for media, they do not merely capture but formalized the social events and collective facts. They manipulate the viewer perception and attitudes. From institutional and traditional to individual, digitalized and social media, they redefine the meaning of distant and ambivalent identities and design some clichés about them. That is why this paper is an attempt to describe the representation of marginal identities in Turkish media mainly through television channels, newspapers, internet and films that may stimulate the controversial relationship between normals and deviant and between insider and outsider. For this purpose, in this study, it is focused on the question of how Turkish media display and represent the transvestites.

Constructed Environment

Sustainable tourism is defined as a development of tourism that does not exploit natural and constructed environment and instead preserves the culture, inheritance, and artistic values of the local community (Dávid, 2011). Global mass tourism, a form of tourism that involves tens of thousands of travellers going to the same destination during the same time of year, has contributed to an increase in waste, carbon, water scarcity, cost of living, overcrowding, and misconstrued cultural identities (Juvan, Ring, Leisch, & Dolnicar, 2016; Eraqi, 2014; Smith, 2018). The use of social media has changed the way people discover, research, discuss, and book travel destinations. As a tool that hosts travel discussions and affords travel experiences to be documented, viewed, and narrated, the content posted to Instagram plays an instrumental role in shaping pre-travel narrative. Using studies on sustainable tourism, social media, and persuasive design, this Major Research Project analyzes how Instagram can promote sustainable tourism by integrating new features to its platform.

Concerning about: (1) an increase in regional demand (government and community) in developing tourism destinations in the era of autonomy and separation, (2) the needs of tourists to choose the right attraction in accordance with their respective criteria, and (3) the needs of employers to offer sights of interest in accordance with the needs of potential tourists, a media is needed to be developed that can facilitate those needs. It is a web-based software system that can store and show tourist destinations of Indonesia in a comprehensive, systematic, and structured way. Besides, it can classify the various attractions based on attributes, such as: location (name of the island, province, district), tourism type/product, how to go to thoseobjects, cost, and also another variety of informal information, such as: the ins and outs of the attraction area posted by the local community or travel experiences posted by tourists. The first phase will focus on a database system that enables local governments and local communities retain information attractions and products systematically and structurally so that potential tourists can find them easily through a simple search method. The database system is then a basis og other information that will be built on further research needs such as:Data Warehouse System, Decision Support System, and Expert System for Indonesia's tourism industry.

Abstract.The rapid use of technology has made the digital community easier to carry out activities. Technological developments also have an impact on the use of mass media, especially social media. The mass media is indeed like a double-edged knife. On the one hand it provides tremendous benefits to the development of information for the community. On the other hand, it is easier for someone to provide information on social media that has a negative impact, so that one can easily do hate speech on social media. Freedom of opinion and criticism of someone who is deemed not to violate any laws and regulations, because it is considered to have no direct physical contact with other people. Therefore, ethics in the online world today needs to be upheld to prevent even greater crimes and violations, considering that the online world has become an important part of communication and information infrastructure, especially as more and more parties abuse the virtual world to spread displeasure with one thing which concerns ethnicity, religion, and race.Keywords: Hate Speech, Social Media. Abstrak. Melesatnya penggunaan teknologi menjadikan masyarakat digital semakin mudah dalam menjalankan aktifitas. Perkembangan teknologi juga berdampak pada penggunaan media massa terutama media sosial. Media massa memang bagaikan pisau bermata dua. Di satu sisi memberikan manfaat yang luar biasa terhadap perkembangan informasi bagi masyarakat. Di sisi lain memudahkan seseorang memberikan informasi di media sosial yang memiliki dampak negatif, sehingga dengan mudahnya seseorang dapat melakukan ujaran kebencian (hate speech) di media sosial. Kebebasan berpendapat maupun mengkritik seseorang yang dianggap tidak akan melanggar hukum dan aturan apapun, karena dianggap tidak adanya kontak fisik langsung dengan orang lain. Karena itu, etika dalam dunia online saat ini perlu ditegakkan untuk mencegah terjadinya kejahatan dan pelanggaran yang lebih besar lagi, mengingat dunia online yang telah menjadi bagian penting dari infrastruktur komunikasi dan informasi, terlebih semakin banyak pihak yang menyalahgunakan dunia maya untuk menyebarluaskan  ketidaksenangan terhadap satu hal yang menyangkut suku bangsa, agama, dan ras.Kata Kunci: Hate Speech, ujaran kebencian, Media Sosial.
