This paper has examined the new generation of leisure participation surveys and their potential for research on leisure in every day life. The new generation of leisure surveys are remedying various problems in their design and in their approach to the study of leisure. As national leisure surveys in Australia and New Zealand demonstrate, leisure surveys are acquiring features which enable a broader understanding of leisure and its contexts. Just as research methodology in general is constantly changing and evolving so is leisure survey methodology. It is anticipated that as new questions are asked about leisure behaviour new ideas concerning survey methods will emerge. © Presses de I’Université du Québec.

The paper is a review of literature and an analysis of the concept of lifestyle and its relationship to leisure. In the first part of the paper the review is divided into nine sections covering Weberian, sub-cultural, psychological, market research and psychographics, leisure/tourism styles, spatial, socialist lifestyles, consumer culture, gender, and miscellaneous approaches. In the second part of the paper a number of themes are identified and their roles in defining lifestyle are discussed; these are: Activities/behaviour; values and attitudes; individuals versus groups; group interaction, coherence, recognisability and choice. In conclusion, a definition of lifestyle is offered and a brief indication of a research agenda is presented. © 1993 E. and F.N. Spon.

This paper outlines an ecotourism project undertaken in the Santa Elena community in the Monteverde region of Costa Rica. The community is seeking to establish a rainforest reserve on a parcel of land that has been permanently leased to their high school by the Costa Rican Government. The Community and Youth Challenge International are developing an ecotourism project that will provide a wider economic basis for the area and employment for students graduating from the high school. This project seeks to achieve sustainable development and fulfil the development requirements of the population surrounding the project. This is in the belief that it is only when conservation projects benefit local communities, and are set up with an infrastructure that vests control within local communities, that genuine ecotourism is achieved. © 1993 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
