Institutions are fundamental aspects for driving tourism and
hospitality globally. They are the socio-economic "rules of the
game" that serve to shape and constrain human and organisational
interactions. This book is the first of its kind to provide a
comprehensive overview of institutional theory in a tourism and
hospitality context. The complexity and multiple scaled nature of
the institutional environment plays a crucial role in the
development and formation of tourism destinations, attractions,
organisations, and businesses, as well as influencing the
activities of individuals. Institutional theory therefore provides
a means to understand the complexity and processes of change at
different scales of analysis and provides insights into the
organisational and political basis of tourism policy development
and implementation. Chapters introduce and expand on institutional
analysis in tourism and hospitality, institutional theory in the
social sciences, methodological issues, and future directions in
institutional analysis in tourism and hospitality, making use of
case studies throughout. This book will appeal to students of
tourism, hospitality, leisure, and events, as well as other social
science disciplines. Providing a comprehensive overview of and
guide to the application of institutional theory, this book will
serve as a complete reference to institutional theory in a tourism
and hospitality setting for years to come.
