Singapore's wartime heritage attraction

Article Abstract:

Historical events sometimes undergo a process of turning into tourist attractions and encouraging the emergence of a heritage industry. Singapore's experiences during World War II is an example of this occurrence. Techniques involved in this transformation include managing and marketing the heritage of the war. Historical developments have implications for the ways sites are designed and operated.

Profiling satisfied volunteers at a tourist attraction

Article Abstract:

Economies have moved increasingly toward services-based production. A result of this movement is that service-providers are not being paid adequately. Management theory has embraced service employees but management of volunteer workforces has not been recognized as a major focus for investigation. This deficiency is related to the management of volunteers on the enterprise level.
