Experienced researchers theorise what the future holds for tourism research.
This book brings together experienced and well-respected researchers to understand, interpret and envision the future for tourism. It examines the transformations taking place in tourism currently and the potential future changes that could occur.
The volume also explores the limitations of predicting the future of tourism and areas that need to be addressed such as climate change, technology, sustainability, hypermobility, regeneration and destination management. It considers the uncertain directions for the future and sets an agenda for the transformation of tourism. The book will be a useful resource for researchers and students in tourism and future studies, as well as tourism planners and public sector agencies.
