| Title: | A return to innocence : Guimi tourism and women empowerment | Authors: | Hao, F Zhang, S Xiao, H |
Issue Date: | Nov-2021 | Source: | International journal of tourism research, Nov.-Dec. 2021, v. 23, no. 6, p. 971-983 | Abstract: | Influenced by the Confucian culture, clan-family structure, and communist ideology, gender inequality still widely exists in modern China. On reflection of the socio-cultural framework that shaped the Chinese gender lens, this study took a “power to” perspective on women empowerment by investigating 28 Guimi-tourists' embodied experience. Upon identifying the core experience of “Return to Innocence,” a resources-agency-achievements framework was constructed to depict the underlying mechanism through which Guimi tourism empowered women to counteract sociocultural constraints. The study offered a context-specific understanding of Guimi tourism and theoretically contributed to women empowerment and tourism, as well as Chinese cultural studies. | Keywords: | China Confucianism Gender equality Guimi tourism Resources-agency-achievements Women empowerment |
