女性民宿主成长与乡村民宿发展的互动机制
Interactive Mechanism Between the Growth of Female Homestay Elites and the Development of Rural Homestays
摘要
Abstract
The homestay industry,an essential component of rural tourism,plays a crucial role in promoting the rural industries and realizing rural revitalization strategies.Female homestay owners,as important participants in this industry,have driven the development of rural tourism and the homestay sector and benefited from it.Therefore,further research is necessary to explore how female homestay owners leverage their feminine traits to become rural tourism elites,thus becoming a significant force in developing and revitalizing rural homestays.This study considerd 30 female homestay owners in Guangdong Province as research subjects,combines the four core principles of life course theory,and employs interviews and thematic analysis to explore the bidirectional interaction mechanism between the growth of female homestay owners and the development of rural homestays.This study divides the driving forces of female homestay owner growth into personal agency,accumulation of past resources,socio-historical conditions,and social relationship networks,thereby analyzing the growth path of female homestay owners.The results indicate that female homestay owners are key in promoting rural tourism development.Under certain socio-historical conditions,they actively exercise personal agency;integrate accumulated resources with family,social,and governmental relationship networks;obtain elite status;respond to rural development needs at different stages;and contribute to developing rural tourism and the homestay industry while achieving personal growth.In the exploration phase,they rely on developing rural tourism,seizing opportunities using social relationship networks,promoting the number of homestays,improving rural living environments,and responding actively to rural homestay development needs.In the foundation-building phase,they use accumulated resources and business experience to weave social relationship networks,drive outstanding homestay practitioners,and meet the need for standardization and branding in rural homestays.In the formation phase,they return to rural tourism,shape social images,pursue social recognition,address homestay clustering and branding issues,and promote exemplary development in the rural homestay industry.The feminine traits of female homestay owners play a vital role in this process;they use traits such as affinity,delicacy,and sensitivity to enhance homestays'competitiveness and customer satisfaction,create a warm accommodation environment,and keenly capture market changes.The traditional role of women in family structures influences homestay owners'career choices.They achieved economic independence through homestay businesses,enhanced their say in the family,and supported their families.In terms of care ethics,they focus on women's development,improving the employment situation of rural women,offering training and support,promoting economic independence and self-development of rural women,and contributing to rural revitalization.This study,from the perspective of integrating micro-individuals with macro-society,provides a reference for clarifying the formation and evolution mechanism of the positive interaction between local elites and local development,offers a new perspective for understanding the role of female homestay owners in rural revitalization,and provides a rich set of empirical data and a theoretical framework for future research.关键词
