Strategy Study on Cultural Tourism and Economic Development for Ethnic Neighborhoods in US

美国城市中的许多少数民族社区都有丰富的历史、艺术和美食传统,但也面临着投资困难、高贫困率和人口素质恶化等难题。面对文化旅游的日益流行的今天,探讨少数民族社区文化资产与经济发展的关系,对促进少数民族社区的整体进步是非常必要的。以美国洛杉矶的少数民族社区为例,分析少数民族文化旅游作为少数民族社区的经济发展战略所面临的机遇和挑战。

Many ethnic city neighborhoods in US cities are rich in traditions,history,art,and cuisine but are also suffering from disinvestment,high poverty rates,and deterioration. In the face of a growing popularity of cultural tourism,an opportunity exists to explore how neighborhood cultural assets can be used to promote economic development in such neighborhoods. In this study we take ethnic neighborhoods of Los Angeles an example and analyze their characteristics to discuss the opportunities and challenges of using cultural tourism as an economic development strategy in ethnic neighborhoods.
