E-JURNAL The Manx TT Races and residents' views: a case assessment of Doxey's "lrridex"
Tourism can be potentially disruptive
for the recipient communities; particularly for
residents who do not directly benefit from the spending
of tourists. To this end in the 1970s George Doxey
derived an "irridex" and this is assessed in this paper
in the Manx context. The Isle of man Tourist Trophy
Motorcycle Races involve road closures and are
potentially disruptive to the lives of many residents.
Survey results show that Manx residents do not,
however, find the races unacceptably disruptive or
intrusive. As such, questions are raised on the nature
of environmentally disruptive tourism.
