[관광에서의 자유를 논의한다] 



관광에서의 자유개념을 재탐색한다. 


기존 연구에서는 관광자유개념을 개인적이고 주체적 차원의 ‘선택의 자유’로 축소하고


타인과의 공존을 고려하지 못했다.


그러나 시대가 변하면서 관광객의 형태는 다양해지고 선택의 자유가 주어지더라도 


실현하기 위한 제약 극복능력과 관광기반조건의 차이는 고려하지 못하고 있다.


이제 관광에서의 자유는 개인 차원의 문제가 아닌 공공의 문제가 되었다.

Abstract

Freedom is an important concept in tourism, as it distinguishes tourism activities from other activities. Freedom is a prerequisite for tourism and an important factor influencing tourism motivation, tourism experience, and tourism outcomes. However, despite the change in the liberal paradigm and the diversified demand of tourists, freedom in tourism does not reflect this trend. Hitherto based on the classical philosophy of freedom, the concept of freedom in tourism only explains individual choice opportunities. Under the consciousness of this problem, first, the context and discussion of the concept of freedom are reviewed to examine the limitations of the concept of freedom in tourism literature. This paper proposes the expanded concept of freedom in the field of tourism, named tourism freedom. Tourism freedom consists of tourist-level psychological freedom, behavioral freedom, and communal freedom formed through tourism activities. This includes an understanding of community freedom within the scope of tourism, beyond individual and subjective benefits. In addition, freedom at the tourism-based level can be understood as internal resources of tourists necessary to realize freedom in tourism, external resources as a tourism environment, and institutional resources that promote them smoothly. Consequently, it is emphasized that freedom in tourism is a comprehensive examination of the aspects of tourist-level and tourism-based level, leading the issues related to tourism freedom to public rather than to individuals.
