The Routledge Handbook of Regenerative Tourism (Routledge International Handbooks)

This timely and innovative handbook provides a comprehensive overview of the current critical debates, trends, and the transformative potential of regenerative tourism, and also looks towards a more responsible, inclusive, and sustainable future for tourism. Comprising specifically commissioned, original contributions from recognised authors and experts in the field, the book provides a logically structured and systematic guide to the current state of knowledge in this area. It is interdisciplinary in coverage and international in scope through its authorship and content. The volume commences with an assessment of the principles and theoretical foundation of regenerative tourism, which provides a context to explore the policy, planning, development, destination management and marketing, local impacts, manifestations, and future of regenerative tourism. This is essential reading for students, researchers, academics, practitioners, policymakers, government officials, and industry professionals interested in the possibilities of responsible and sustainable, and regenerative forms of tourism.
