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.
