• Growth, development, and innovation: A look backward and forward (2003, background): “Tourism is an ill-defined sector that has risen in importance as both business and leisure tourism have expanded greatly, initiating policies and building “urban entertainment amenities” explicitly to attract visitors ( Eisinger 2000 ).”
• Olympic Cities: Lessons Learned from Mega-Event Politics (2001, background): “As critics have pointed out, providing festivals when people need bread is a dubious use of public resources (e.g., Eisinger, 2000; Law, 1993; Lenskyj, 1996).”

• Fuzzy vibrancy: Creative placemaking as ascendant US cultural policy (2013, background): “Critics question whether cities recoup investments, given capital expenses and ongoing operational and maintenance costs (Eisinger, 2000), and their economic merit vis-à-vis other projects that serve the local population (Markusen & Gadwa, 2010a).”
• CULTURAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES AND URBAN REVITALIZATION (2007, background): “Some see these projects as primarily constructed for the “visitor class” (Eisinger 2000), but the reality is more complex.”
