Abstract

This study aims to uncover the commodification of residents' living spaces in Kampung Kayutangan, Malang City, through the transformation of old houses into heritage tourism attractions. The change of the village into a tourist destination shifts the function of houses from domestic space to tourist consumption space. This study offers a novel approach by shifting the focus of heritage tourism studies from a predominance of architectural and physical analysis of buildings to the lived experiences, power relations, and social consequences experienced by residents inhabiting the spaces surrounding heritage buildings that have been developed as tourist destinations. This study aims to analyze the social dynamics in heritage tourism practices, particularly the exclusion of local narratives and the ambivalence between lived space and display space. This study draws on Michael Herzfeld's (2015) thinking on heritage and power to examine commodification, knowledge inequality, and the tension between preservation and economic exploitation. The method used is qualitative with a case study approach through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show the dominance of official narratives by authorized actors, as well as the commodification of old houses, which affects changes in social practices, the disruption of private space, and latent conflicts at the community level. This study confirms that heritage tourism is an arena for negotiating meaning, identity, and power in urban spaces.

Abstract

Social media influencers significantly shape travel trends and traveler behavior in the digital era. This study explores the dual role of social media influencers in the sustainable tourism landscape: whether they function primarily as trendsetters promoting ethical and responsible travel practices or as sellers of destination dreams who commercialize sustainability through aspirational content on platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.Through qualitative content analysis and in-depth interviews with influencers and their followers, the research identifies messaging patterns, perceived authenticity, and the extent to which sustainability is embedded in influencer branding. Research findings show that although influencers often position themselves as sustainability ambassadors, their content prioritizes visual appeal and personal branding over actual environmental or social responsibility. The study concludes that most influencers are closer to the role of destination dream sellers, contributing to the commercialization of sustainable tourism ideas. This study contributes to the discourse on the impact of digital media on sustainable tourism development, offering policymakers, tourism marketers, content creators, and digital media consumers important insights to evaluate influencer-driven messages on sustainable tourism and align influencer marketing with global sustainability goals.

Abstract

The increasing implementation of sustainability practices in the hospitality industry reflects a commitment to environmental responsibility. However, sustainability symbols often serve as visual elements whose meaning is not fully understood by hotel guests. This study explores how guests' repeated experiences influence their interpretation of sustainability symbols at the Grand Mercure Malang Mirama Hotel. Using a qualitative research design, this study combines Peircean semiotic analysis with the photo elicitation method. The data consist of 20 sustainability-related signs identified through observation and in-depth interviews with 7 domestic guests who stayed for at least 2 nights. Data were collected through systematic observation, and interviews were analyzed using Peirce's triadic semiosis framework, with deductive and inductive reasoning to explore emotional, energetic, and ultimate interpretants. Findings indicate that sustainability indicators, such as eco-friendly symbols, energy efficiency, and documented environmental activities, are more effective at driving shifts toward energetic and ultimate interpretants. Conversely, symbolic signs such as sustainability certifications trigger emotional responses and visual impressions, often leading to interpretive ambiguity. This study contributes to the fields of sustainability communication and hospitality studies and expands Peirce's semiotics in the context of sustainability in the hospitality industry in Indonesia.

Abstract

Marine-based community tourism depends heavily on effective ecological management, yet the role of the green marketing mix in this context remains insufficiently examined. This study addresses this gap by analyzing survey data from 321 visitors to Pahawang Island Tourism Village, Indonesia. Using multiple linear regression analysis, the findings indicate that green product, attributes, pricing strategies, distribution channels, and promotional activities jointly enhance destination sustainability. The result emphasizes the importance of an integrated green marketing strategy in supporting the triple bottom line, namely, environmental conservation, social well-being, and economic resilience. By capturing supply-side dynamics in a developing-country context, this study offers empirical insights for policymakers and local destination managers to improve sustainable tourism governance.

Abstract

Abstract This study explores how a government-led city branding initiative can become a site of public contestation when symbolic meanings are not collectively negotiated. In 2025, the Jember Regency Government introduced the slogan “Semua Karena Cinta” (All Because of Love) and a pink-dominated visual identity as part of its official branding strategy. Using a qualitative case study approach grounded in a constructivist perspective, this research examines how the branding was interpreted, debated, and resisted in public communication spaces. Data were gathered from official government publications and Instagram content, online news coverage, social media comments, and in-depth interviews with community members, and analyzed through thematic coding with NVivo. The findings show that public resistance was driven by perceived misalignment between the pink symbolism and Jember’s socio-cultural identity, the saturation of visual symbols in public facilities, and a gap between the “love” narrative and visible political dynamics. Rather than outright policy rejection, resistance appeared mainly through humor, sarcasm, and critical digital discourse, indicating tensions in symbolic legitimacy. Theoretically, this study contributes to city branding scholarship by applying Issue Management Theory to interpret public resistance as an early signal of meaning misalignment. Practically, it highlights the importance of participatory and dialogic communication in sustaining trust and legitimacy in government branding initiatives.
