This book investigates and considers the urgent political, social, and economic challenges that confront society and tourism. It attempts to look at what is threatening society, and makes suggestions on what the impact will be and how tourism will be changed to integrate with the new socio-economics of a newly emerging society with its novel peculiar challenges and opportunities in a post-energy era. The book draws on the views of leading thinkers in tourism and considers a broad range of issues from multidisciplinary perspectives facing the tourism industry for the first time in one volume: dwindling energy, new technology, security (like war and terrorism), political economy, sustainability, and human resources. By critically reviewing these social and economic challenges in a global scale, the book helps to create a comprehensive view of future tourism in the unfolding and challenging society of the third millennium.This innovative and significant volume will be valuable reading for all current and future tourism professionals.

This book envisions the future of tourism in an economy that is largely automated. ‘Robonomics’ is the term given to this economic system that relies on robots, artificial intelligence and automation technologies for the production of goods and delivery of services instead of human labour. The volume examines the unique technological, socioeconomic and political situation that such an economy will create, and reflects on how tourism is then produced, consumed and paid for. The chapters explore some controversial solutions to the challenges of the robonomic economic system, such as redefinition of human rights, robot rights and universal basic income schemes. The chapters also consider the transition to a robonomic tourism ecosystem and the adjustments and innovations that will be required of consumers, industry and society.

This book is written for restaurant owners, operators, and entrepreneurs who want to open their first location with limited capital, are renovating an existing space while keeping the doors open, feel overwhelmed by architects, contractors, and city codes, but want to stay in control, and believe their concept deserves great design but need practical, affordable solutions.Unlike glossy design magazines or technical textbooks, this guide speaks directly to owners. It doesn’t assume you’re an architect or engineer, nor does it shy away from the operational realities of running a restaurant day-to-day. Every chapter balances design know-how with business logic, helping you connect creative ideas to your bottom line.Whether you’re debating how many seats your dining room should hold, trying to figure out if a used oven is worth the savings, or wondering how to phase construction without shutting down, this book provides a clear roadmap. It breaks down intimidating subjects like codes, permits, and mechanical systems into plain language, offering owner-friendly checklists, templates, and strategies along the way.
