Abstract:
This research investigated the formation of locals’ attitudes toward Chinese tourism via a cultural political economy approach. An ethnographic fieldwork was conducted, and data were analyzed via critical grounded theory analysis. It found that locals’ views on Chinese tourism were concentrated on Chinese tourism as a source of income, which, however, was somewhat challenged by their concerns about tourism investments from China. The study suggests that it is the interplay of social imaginaries relating to Chinese tourism (i.e. ‘tourism as a tool of economic growth’, and ‘China as an “external enemy”’), embedded in broad social, economic, political, and historical contexts, and locals’ encounter with Chinese tourism mobility (i.e. mobility of Chinese people, capital, information etc. along with Chinese tourism) that shapes the ambiguity of locals’ attitudes.
