Study on the Periodic Empowerment Mechanism of Tourist Destinations

Researches of the authors show that the empowerment of residents in tourist destinations should be divided into three stages, i.e. the participation of decision-making; the distribution of benefits; and the remodeling recovery. Participation in decision-making should focus on political and information empowerment; the distribution of benefits should focus on economic and educational empowerment; and the remodeling recovery should focus on social and psychological empowerment. Meanwhile, institutional empowerment ensures the implementation of the above methods of empowerment with its role and influence throughout all stages of the life cycle.
