This book explores the concept, techniques and implications of
establishing stakeholder collaboration in sustainable tourism. The
importance of involving a wide range of stakeholders in tourism
planning and management is increasingly recognised. This reflects a
move to less top-down, more decentralised and more inclusive forms
of governance in tourism and in other policy fields. Twenty-two
leading researchers and practitioners from around the world
contribute their views and expertise to this pioneering volume.
Case studies examining key issues are drawn from Europe, North and
South America, Australia and the Arctic. Section 1 examines the
processes, patterns and typologies involved. Specific concerns
addressed include stakeholder interaction and negotiation, boundary
issues in regional and international partnerships and stages of
collaborative development. Section 2 evaluates the effects of
politics and power on the practice of collaboration. Specific
topics here include the changing roles of the state in tourism
governance, regime theory and tourism, the public sector and
partnership development and partnerships in a post socialist
context. Section 3 looks at emerging thinking and approaches, sums
up key issues affecting collaborative tourism planning and suggests
future research directions. The book will be invaluable for final
year undergraduate tourism students, for postgraduate students in
tourism, environmental studies or planning and of interest to
tourism planners, managers and consultants.
