Recently several events in the world have damaged countries ' reputation. The riots in England, or also the « Arabic revolutions », have had commons consequences, in damaging the reputation of these countries and creating instability on the public opinion. The concept of reputation is more commonly associated with company and Dalton and Croft (2003) define it such as “the sum values that stakeholders attribute to a company, based on their perception and interpretation of the image that the company communicates over time”. But we can also extend this definition to country, and Lewis (2011) explains that the reputation is “what people says about us” and raises the problem of reputation 's vulnerability. The impact of the reputation seems to …show more content…
Consumers in general will choose a safe-secure destination and will evaluate the risk such as a cost. A safe secure destination will be more attractive, “Arabic 's Revolutions”, for example illustrate as well this phenomenon. In several countries which were very busy, like Tunisia or Egypt, recent political turmoil lead to decrease by 11% the international tourist arrivals between January to April, according to the UNTWO (2011). In Egypt, where tourism represents 11% of employment, there is a real crisis. In these countries, tourism is an economic motor, and for example according to Grangié (2011), the decline of the Egypt GDB was about 7 % in the first term of the year. Sonmez (1998) quote Edgell vision (1990) and says “tourism decisions to stay home or choose safe destinations are translated into significant looses for the industry of the country suffering from terrorism”. But that it is more problematic, it is the fact that tourist do not choose these destination currently, even if the country is calm and safe. Nevertheless a new tourist 's range appears, as Sonmez (1998) called the “tourism of war”,and sometimes instability become a source of interest. The image is therefore a major criteria of choice, but it 's also important to underline the perception can differ according to the customer’s origin (Sonmez, 1998). At this stage it is also important to bring up the role of the media, because of its involvement in the information circulation.
According to Habermas, when people believe that the economy no longer serves them or that the government isn’t working in their best interest, crisis ensues. He believes we have such a crisis today because quantitative media are non-communicative. With money and votes, he who has the most wins. Money and votes can be useful ways of getting things done, but only so long as their legitimacy is assured by the common understandings of influence and value-commitments. Therefore, it must be understood that money and power are expressions of shared value-commitments and interpersonal influence. The I & L will generate the legitimacy of the A & G (Frank, 2000).
Thus, reputation and disgrace are the forces that govern humans. To describe this, humans being life starting dependent and pre-rational though a blank slate. What is more, with each generation, through childhood, received opinions will establish. Although humans are born with blank slates, they do not stay that way as they reach adulthood. By the time of adulthood, the blank slates are longer blank, but filled with capacity for critical rationality.
What does reputation and a high rise in New York have in common? The reputation of a person is like a ginormous skyscraper in New York. This skyscraper takes years to build, costs a ton of time, and once it is knocked down it is almost impossible to build back up. Something that defines a person’s actions and when it is lost, it is almost impossible to regan, is a reputation. A reputation is defined by, the beliefs or opinions that are generally held about someone or something. In my lifetime so far, I have built up my reputation, and so have you and the people around us. Reputation is a huge aspect of someone’s life, whether in real world or in the fictional world.
People feel valuable when the mouths of humankind observe them positively, but when the tables turn they ask themselves what “they” did wrong along with how to correct it. They then, most commonly point a focus on their reputation, but rarely their nature, when really it’s their character that helped them get them there from start. Assuming that a person’s reputation is positive, it could bring many advantages; especially if the public eye recognize you as an influential figure. Admitting, that having a positive reputation can help guide someone through life from the vast opportunities it could provide, focusing on your true character is major because one mistake can change your whole reputation, a false name can become your worst enemy, and
a) One of the trends that are occurring in the hotel industry is the increase in construction in certain pipelines and areas. The Spanish influenced countries of Latin America and South America are seeing the largest increase. The increased interest in the Hispanic culture by society is driving many consumers to want to escape to the sandy beaches and the tropical oasis. The other trend is the decrease in the African and the Middle Eastern Pipelines. Much of this can be contributed to the political unrest in these countries that is covered by the media. While many still want to go on vacations to their holy lands for religious purposes or visit many ancient areas of art and documented
The tourism industry is one of the largest growing industries in the world and has allowed people to travel the world more freely. The American tourism industry has slowly been recovering since the 9/11 terrorist attacks which really hit the industry hard and people were afraid to visit America. Donald Trump was elected the 44th president of the United States of America in November 2016 ever since then the tourism industry has started to slowly decline. Now The American tourism industry makes up around about 20% of the world’s tourism industry. The tourism industry took a big hit in January and in March of 2017 when Donald Trump introduced a travel ban to seven Middle-eastern countries which outraged the world and the American public. The aim of this paper is to analyse the extent to which the election of Trump has affected America’s inbound tourism.
Therefore, a reputation is just an opinion of what someone is supposed to be and the effect their respect can have on another person. I believe a reputation is just a way to file someone under a category to distinguish who that person is as a whole. Along with that, the respect or opinion to an individual has the ability to change how others perceive them. Although reputations aren't reputable themselves, they can affect lives for better or
In doing things better the next time and in accordance to campaign assessments, organizations are safeguarding their reputations. Reputation is a core asset of an organization and creates barriers to competitive threats (Schreiber, 2011). Established reputations hinder competitive mobility and deliver returns to organizations because they are difficult to emulate (Schreiber, 2011). A solid reputation evokes that the products and/or services offered by the organization are of higher quality (Carmeli & Tisler, 2005) and that the firm is
The Italian tourism business in the modern times is appealing to those internationally and nationally within the country. Before, during, and after the Fascism reign was when the policies that organizations of today were being created and trying to be put in use for the betterment of the economy and industry at the times. The nation’s tourist structures functioned better and helped bring the economy out of their hard times caused by the mistakes of Fascism. Italy had remained a poor country during Fascism, destroying the progress after the First World War and eventually coming out of it after Fascism with the knowledge of the need for international currency in the economy. The economy and the people of Italy all were affected by the need and growth of tourism during the rise and fall of the Fascist regime.
Traditionally, companies pursued the maximization of profit in which economic activity has been their central focus. However, with this fast-changing, culturally diverse environment, companies have seen the importance of enhancing their business reputation through effective business practices and effective communication to their stakeholders and the whole community. Leading businesses are more visible in the critical public eyes and the more powerful they are the more they are at risk to scrutiny (Carroll and Buchholtz 2001, 6) Due to this, businesses nowadays are under much greater pressure as business firms are bound to satisfy the rising expectations of the public and at the same time meet the growing expectations of the increasing

Another aspect of impact of tourism on a country’s economy is that it facilitates the expansion of the market of goods and services. Foreigners come to a country willing to spend money on different goods and services, thus increasing the amounts of sales. This is a great chance for producers and service providers to receive larger profits. This concerns not only hoteliers, tour operators, and souvenir shops owners. Public transportation, retail stores of different kind, restaurants, and cafes benefit from international tourism. Obviously, if these industries are in demand, businesses will be expanding. On the one hand, it means that more money is paid to the budget. On the other hand, profits generated by the owners are spent inside the country, affecting almost all the fields of the
From an environmental perspective, it is apparent that the world is starting to realise that increases in tourism are having a negative impact on the environment. This is due to increases in energy consumption, which in turn heightens the effects of global warming (Neto, 2002). There are many controls that governments are trying to put into place, such as flight rationing (Liverpool Business School, 2009). However, it can be argued that these have not really begun to have a significant effect on tourism, as they are still insufficient to dampen demand. It may become a problem in future years, as the number of controls is likely to increase. Perhaps the largest environmental factor would be natural disasters, like Hurricane Katrina (Cashell, 2005) and the tsunami that hit Asia in December 2004 (Birkland, 2006). These will impact negatively on people’s confidence in visiting places that have been hit severely by such disasters.

Values and sentiments are rooted in the country's history and its past experiences. A history of independence and establishment of a democracy might cultivate the value of self-reliance among the public. Additionally, the forms and level of political communication and political participation could portray the level of sentiments and affection towards the government. Where political participation in the form of riots is common and governments are frequently overthrown, it is quite evident that there is a low level of trust. It is important to keep in mind
