• Tourism and poverty alleviation: perceptions and experiences of poor people in Sapa, Vietnam (2014, result): “This understanding is similar to that of poor people in Laos (Harrison & Schipani, 2007), but different from that of poor people in Ghana who perceive poverty as a lack of income and/or opportunities (Holden et al., 2011).”
• Assisting the poor in China through tourism development: A review of research (2012, background): “Another definitional problem relates to “development” within the context of this paper, for as Harrison and Schipani (2007) note, economic development per se does not always generate benefit for the poorest.”
• Tourism and poverty reduction: theory and practice in less economically developed countries (2012, unknown): “…poverty reduction theme in LEDCs have focused on case studies related to community-based tourism (CBT) (e.g. Bramwell, 2010; Choi & Murray, 2010; Harrison & Schipani, 2007; Lapeyre, 2010; Lepper & Goebel, 2010; Matarrita-Cascante, Brennan, & Luloff, 2010; Mehta & Kellert, 1998; Saarinen, 2010;…”
• Development for whom? Social justice and the business of ecotourism (2010, background): “Since then, researchers have investigated a broader range of tourism types and phenomena in developing countries, including case studies of donor-funded ecotourism development (Belsky, 1999; Borchers, 2002; Duffy, 2002; Erb, 2001; Harrison & Schipani, 2007; Schellhorn, 2007).”
• Can community-based tourism contribute to development and poverty alleviation? Lessons from Nicaragua (2011, background): “Hence, the top-down CBT model can turn out to be sustainable as long as the mediator organisation maintains and repairs the network with its operational and financial support (knowledge, money, cars, brochures, contacts with the generating market, and so on) (see Harrison & Schipani, 2007 ).”
