The Tourism Life Cycle Model of Rural Development: A Case Study of Two Ethnic Villages in Southwest China
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rural poverty is still a persistent and severe problem in the Global South. As the largest developing country in the world, China is committed to ending rural poverty by 2020. As a country strives to become the world’s new superpower, it faces a harsh reality of widening urban-rural disparities in education, living standards, health care, and community services. Therefore, China presents an intriguing case of how to achieve sustainable rural development while empowering the local community to promote social justice and maintain cultural identity. Based on our fieldwork done in two ethnic villages of Chongqing Municipality in Southwest China, we explore the social, cultural, economic, and ecological impacts of rural tourism on the local communities. Keywords: China, rural poverty reduction, sustainable development ------------ Le modele de cycle de vie touristique du developpement rural : une etude de cas de deux villages ethniques du sud-ouest de la Chine La pauvrete rurale reste un probleme persistant et grave dans les pays du Sud. En tant que plus grand pays en developpement du monde, la Chine s'est engagee a mettre fin a la pauvrete rurale d'ici 2020. Alors qu'un pays s'efforce de devenir la nouvelle superpuissance mondiale, il est confronte a la dure realite des disparites urbaines-rurales croissantes en matiere d'education, de niveau de vie, de soins de sante et de services communautaires. Par consequent, la Chine presente un cas intrigant de la facon de parvenir a un developpement rural durable tout en permettant a la communaute locale de promouvoir la justice sociale et de maintenir l'identite culturelle. Sur la base de notre travail de terrain effectue dans deux villages ethniques de la municipalite de Chongqing dans le sud-ouest de la Chine, nous explorons les impacts sociaux, culturels, economiques et ecologiques du tourisme rural sur les communautes locales. Mots-cles : Chine, reduction de la pauvrete rurale, developpement durable

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
