A FENNTARTHATÓ TURIZMUS ÉS A HELYKÖTŐDÉS KAPCSOLATÁNAK VIZSGÁLATA A BUSÓJÁRÁS KONTEXTUSÁBAN
Examination of the Connection Between Sustainable Tourism and Place-Attachment in the Context of the Busó Festival

Summary/Abstract: Due to globalization and technological changes our habits have changed and become unsustainable. The importance of sustainability has increased worldwide in the last few years, but it depends on several socio-cultural factors, which are how much we are capable of moderating the destruction processes of our environment and society. The continuous economic growth increased the differences in society and because of that the welfare and well-being in societies have fallen in some areas. In addition, generations have shown up for whom a rural traditional event might not mean entertainment. Because of that, I feel important to make these events amusing and, in this way, the welfare of local people and the willingness of re-visiting might rise. The aim of this paper is to examine the connection between place-attachment and sustainable tourism created by the “Busó” Festival in Mohács, and its base is a research which was completed in March of 2020. The observation includes a quantitative questionnaire and a qualitative interview with a professional. The former was filled out by local people and tourists, the latter was created by me and I asked the main event organizer of “Busó” Festival.
