Exploring the Social Impact of the Short-Stay Market (SSM) in Regional Areas: An Empirical Study

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: Discourse on microentrepreneurs research on short stay accommodation was not in existence before 2008. After 2009, several concepts and constructs were developed and a few till date have been empirically tested, but a majority of those that have been tested relate to economics, leaving the social, cultural, and environmental perspective backward. Thus, this study aims to identify and assess social factors influencing short-stay market economy in a regional area. 16 interview sessions with 18 participants of a face-to-face interview conducted, and the Leximancer software was employed for its analysis. The study shows that the social drivers to SSA are not generic, but pluralistic, multidimensional, and dynamic, and that limiting regulatory clauses to borrowed concepts of limitation or prohibition, the council demonstrates a lack of digital leadership. Despite ample opportunities provided by SSM in regional area, there are few encumbrances that cannot be overlooked.
