Papers from 12-ICAL, Volume 3 : Language change in Austronesian languages.

This volume contains papers describing and discussing language change in the Austronesian languages of eastern Indonesia and Taiwan. The issues discussed include the unusual development of verbal infixes in the Cendrawasih Bay languages, dialect variations, patterns of borrowing and language contact in Taiwan and in Flores-Alor-Pantar languages of Indonesia, diachronic and synchronic aspects of voice systems of Sulawesi languages, and the reconstruction of Proto Austronesian personal pronouns.

Papers from 12-ICAL, Volume 2 : Argument realisations and related constructions in Austronesian languages

This volume contains twenty-two papers describing and discussing the salient features of argument realisations in Austronesian languages as manifested in the nominal or verbal domain, or in both. The Austronesian languages featuring in this volume are typologically and geographically diverse, from those with rich morphology, as in Taiwan, to those that are highly isolating, as in Flores. The papers also reflect diversity in approaches and theoretical frameworks.Copyright Information: Copyright is vested with the author(s

Returning to paradise: investigating issues of tourism crisis and disaster recovery on the island of Bali

The past decade has seen the rapid proliferation of theory, literature, and research, in the field of tourism disaster and crisis management, however very few empirical studies of destination recovery consider the pre-crisis context, or extend beyond a particular crisis catalyst and subsequent return to "business as usual". As a longitudinal case study, the island destination of Bali provides insight into tourism crisis vulnerability, particularly in relation to issues of unplanned development and host community over-dependence on tourism revenue. Furthermore, the experience of two separate targeted terrorist attacks on the island reveals a number of challenges and tangible lessons for stakeholders engaged in destination disaster management and crisis recovery. While the restoration of consumer confidence and arrival numbers are often considered to be indicators of successful tourism recovery, the broader disaster management literature advocates for proactive vulnerability reduction premised in sustainable development and comprehensive, integrated disaster risk reduction
