Reihe: Advances in Tourism

This innovative and timely book critically explores and demonstrates how both the tourism system and tourism destinations can adapt and act to mitigate, avoid, or solve injustices in destinations.

The volume looks at issues of in/ justices in tourism destination management and governance. This book sheds light on theoretical and practical perspectives and illustrates ways in which tourism practices cause or perpetuate inequities and injustices on people, animals, and the environments of destinations. By doing so, the book offers further insight into who benefits from tourism, how tourism can be made fairer and more just, and at the more extreme end, how tourism can be mobilised as a tool for securing justice.

This significant book is a must-read for academics, researchers, and students interested in tourism governance and destination management.
