This Handbook provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary issues on governance in various tourism research, policy, and development contexts. Expert contributors examine the relationship between governance, sustainability, resilience and justice in tourism, including critical discussions on good governance for tourism in the future.

Exploring the complexities of tourism governance as a field of research, the book moves from a foundational understanding of the topic to cover destination governance, policy, and national, regional and transnational governance. With global insights, authors explore local geographical differences and cross-border coordination in tourism governance alongside analyses of the field on a larger geopolitical scale. With a core focus on how to achieve sustainable and resilient tourism governance, they expand on tourism in different policy fields, investigating topics from conservation areas to human trafficking, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites to Certified B Corps. This Handbook underscores the importance of national and regional consideration in tourism governance, including collaboration with local communities and implementation of smart tourism measures.



This Handbook is an essential resource for scholars and researchers in tourism management, human geography, the sociology and anthropology of tourism and cultural and heritage studies. Policymakers and practitioners in tourism and destination governance will also benefit from the insights provided.
