(De)territorialization of a tourism territory: tracing “transpitality” in the Magdalen Islands, Québec
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Through the post-industrial transition from primary resource extraction and manufacturing to consumer services, a territory may become a site for the production and consumption of leisure activities, cultural practices, and experiences spanning the tourism supply chain. Indeed, it is the bodies of tourists including their desires, practices and values that are both transported and hosted for tourism. Thus, a tourism territory brings into relation practices, peoples, promotional discourses and policies both endogenous and exogenous to a locality and its inhabitants. In this paper, we aim to contribute to both the territorial development and tourism assemblage literatures by applying the DeleuzoGuattarian concepts of territorialization and deterritorialization to illustrate and theorize tourism development in a particular place, namely the Magdalen Islands in Québec, Canada. Tensions between tourism and territory are inherent to the tourism phenomenon and the development of tourism in the Magdalen Islands is no exception. Tracing the dynamics of transportation and commercial hospitality and thereby revealing the entanglements and tensions of a tourism territory, these entanglements prompt us to create the hybridized analytical tool, “transpitality”. We find, these two elements are so tightly woven that the autonomy of each thread is difficult to disentangle from the other. Thus, we conceive of transportation and commercial hospitality as a single dialectical entity with a tension between territorialization and deterritorialization, between movement and anchoring.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
