Governing Tourism for Sustainability by Jarkko Saarinen
Sustainability has become a highly important policy framework for tourism, and the ideals of sustainable development are guiding tourism developers in their planning thinking. This book provides a thorough overview of the key discussions that are focusing on setting the limits to growth in tourism development in local-global nexus. The key focus is on sustainable tourism with a further aim to rethink critically the idea of sustainability in tourism and its relations to carrying capacity, responsibility and other potential frameworks. International and case studies and examples are integrated throughout. This is essential reading for Tourism students.
