Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in each area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.This highly relevant Research Agenda discusses the future of tourism in an ever-changing world. Reflecting on diverse challenges faced by the tourism industry in recent decades, it emphasizes the importance of creating a shared agenda and fostering resilience in the years to come.Leading experts in the field evaluate the ongoing impact of recent ecological disasters, overtourism, war, and the COVID-19 pandemic, analyzing differences in crisis responses of countries across the globe. Drawing on a wide range of in-depth case studies, chapters rethink dominant paradigms in risk management and explore new opportunities presented by digital technologies, sustainability, and rational planning. Ultimately, the Research Agenda underscores the need for resilience and adaptation at this critical stage in tourism development, focusing on the mitigation, rather than the prevention, of harmful effects in an uncertain world.Providing cutting-edge insights into the future of tourism and risk, this timely Research Agenda is an invaluable resource for students and scholars in tourism, human geography, development studies, business and management, and environmental studies. It will also benefit policy makers and professionals seeking novel ways to manage risk in the tourism industry.

Tourism is not only affected by pandemics and epidemics but also contributes to their spread, affecting not only tourists but also the communities in their destinations. The COVID-19 pandemic brought about a new crisis, challenging the travel industry more than ever before.

Chapters examine a wide range of interrelated issues, including the concept of Health Risk and Tourism, the impacts of the recent COVID-19 crisis on tourism activity in several countries, and considers new challenges that the tourism industry will face in the post-COVID era.This book is essential reading for researchers seeking to understand the ongoing effects of pandemics on travel, tourism, hospitality and health industries.

The tourism industry is dynamic, constantly changing, and is particularly sensitive to shocks and external factors that are beyond the control of managers. Terrorism and natural disasters are just two of the current risk factors for western-based tourists seeking increasingly ‘exotic’ locations. What can individuals do to mitigate these risks? What are the responsibilities of tour operators to manage these risks? And what is the global impact on the tourism industry?This collection of chapters from international scholars answer these questions using a wide range of interdisciplinary methods. They shed new light on emerging issues around sustainability, ecology and dark tourism. The concluding chapter speculates what the future holds for the industry as a whole, after years of disruption and potentially increased risks from climate change and political upheaval in different regions.The series features monographs and edited collections to create a critical platform which not only explores the dichotomies of tourism from the theory of mobilities, but also provides an insightful guide for policy makers, specialists and social scientists interested in the future of tourism in a society where uncertainness, anxiety and fear prevail.
