Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2010 in the subject Tourism, grade: A, Hawai'i Pacific University, course: Methods of Research, language: English, abstract: Traveling has effected nations and individuals since nearly their conception. Centuries have become witness to the trends of travel and from the whims of the individual to the necessity of a refugee. As the world becomes more integrated travel has increases, and suddenly there are more foreigners eating around you, living around you, and speaking their language in front of you. Begging many citizens to researchers to ask the question what makes people travel? To many these are immigrants seeking a better life, driven by poverty and desperation from their homeland to those of greater wealth and opportunity. Yet this does not explain Americans emigrating to Western Europe, or emigration vice versa. Although income is a significant motivation for traveling there are many other factors at play, how many travel agencies are there advertising travel based on income saying 'go to Pairs - there's a surplus of low-wage jobs'. Surely there are other factors influencing the reasons for travel, things like family, friends and experience overseas are likely to decrease the negative assumptions of many travelers as they become acquainted or attached to the prospect of traveling to other nations. While fear and negative media coverage are likely to increase negatively impact the likeliness of travel, it is sensibly hard to imagine someone traveling to a nation they are terrified of. Thus the degree of fear and its effect on travel will be the focus of this study. The impact of terrorism on international travel and the effect of negative media coverage are good ways to measure the impacts of fear on potential travelers as well as the resilient trends of some decision making parties. To this effect the impact of terrorism after 9/11 had on the general public, and the Summer Olympics in Athens in 2004 are good measures of these trends. Because people generally know how they feel about terrorism, especially when it's directed at themselves. These cases examine the premise of traveling - safety, the safer people feel the more they travel.
