PublicationThe Role of Social Media Influencers in Tourism Research: A Derivation of a Processual-Model of Influencing, Influencer Characteristics, and Research Operationalisations( 2021-08-30)What is the current status quo of the decision-making impact of Social Media Influencers (SMI) in Tourism Research? A mixed research approach is chosen to partially explain the appetitive or aversive influence of SMI and their messages on recipients in the tourism context. This approach applies a comprehensive literature analysis and a positivistic SO(MOA)R model, which is adapted by context factors regarding the effects of digitalization and eWord-of-mouth. Preliminary results reveal that there are no comprehensive answers regarding context-related influences of SMI in tourism so far. Finally, influencers, their characteristics, and research operationalizations are categorized, and a first Processual-Model of Influencing in tourism research was established. These findings still reveal numerous research gaps and serve as a reference point for future research efforts.Type: conference paper

PublicationDavid vs. Goliath of voter turnout: Why is the participation in EU elections so low?The European Parliament election is one of the most significant elections in the world based on both the sheer number of entitled voters and the international significance of the parliament and its policies. The election turnout increased at the EU election 2019 for the first time in history. However, it seems that European citizens in the past have not realized the importance of this supranational election. So far, in all eight election cycles before the 2019 EU election the voter turnout has continued to decline leading to an all-time low of 42.62% in 2014. This is remarkable, especially because the Eurobarometer, which measures public opinion in relation to the EU, indicates that the reputation of the European Union in most of member states is constantly improving (European Commission, 2013 & 2018). While the turnout rates of national and European elections have decreased constantly over the decades, the turnout at the European election is on average 20-25% lower than for national elections. Although with the estimations of voter turnout at the EU election 2019 (≈50%) the gap is still above 15 % on average. What are the main reason for this discrepancies and what can we do about it?

PublicationOpen Science: Die Demokratisierung der Wissenschaft darf nicht Science Fiction werdenTrotz einer Demokratisierung der Massenkommunikation ist die öffentliche Wahrnehmung der Forschung durch private Organisationen gesteuert, welche den Zugang zu oft aus öffentlicher Hand finanzierten Studien kontrolliert. Die Schweiz, als bedeutende wissenschaftliche Nation, sollte deshalb eine Vorreiterrolle in der Förderung von Open Science übernehmen.Type: discussion paperJournal: Reatch Publikationen
