The evolutionary process of the development path of cultural tourism industry integration from a non-linear perspective
Abstract
The cultural tourism industry and the tourism industry are both different and interrelated, and both are the most promising industries in the modern service industry. Along with the continuous socio-economic development, the influential role of cultural values is expanding and is an inevitable and positive industrial development trend. The globalization of the economy, changes in transportation and information technology, and the widespread use of the Internet have brought about a continuous increase in tourist demand, an essential change in the relationship between all relevant stakeholders in the cultural tourism industry, and an increasing complexity of development. The traditional linear approach to analyzing the components of the system ignores the complexity and dynamics of the cultural tourism industry, and it is difficult to adapt to the development practice. The results show that: after a major national public health outbreak of SARS at the end of 2002, the number of tourism receivers in Shanghai grew -by 13.11%; the number of tourism receivers in Shanghai grew by 24.82% with the bid for the Chinese Olympic Games in 2008, and the evolution of Shanghai’s cultural and tourism industry system has the characteristics of a small world and an approximate scale-free network, which behaves as a chaotic deterministic nonlinear dynamical system; the integration of Shanghai’s cultural and tourism industry follows “orderly - chaotic edge - emergent - new orderly”, the process of jumping up from low-level orderly to high-level orderly evolution; This paper provides a precise analysis of the evolutionary path of the cultural tourism industry, which effectively assists cultural tourism industry managers in adaptive management and regulation by providing methodological and technical support.
