Whilst being an ambiguous and contested concept, sustainability has
become one of the twenty-first century's most pervasive ideas, as
humanity's increasing impact on the environment, as well as
increasing social and economic inequalities, have local and global
consequences. Surfing is a globally recognised cultural phenomenon
whose unique connection with nature and rapid expansion into a
multibillion pound industry offers exciting synergies for exploring
various dimensions of sustainability. This book is the first to
bring together the world's foremost experts on the themes of
sustainability and surfing. Drawing upon cutting edge theory and
research, this book offers multidisciplinary perspectives and
methodological approaches on the social, environmental and economic
components of sustainable surfing. Contributions provide unique
discussions that bridge the gap between theory and practice,
exploring topics such as sustainable surf tourism,
surf-econometrics, surf activism, surfing governance, the surfing
industry, and technological advancements. Each chapter produces
in-depth insights to provide foundational insights of the
relationship between sustainability and surfing. This book will
appeal to multiple audiences in different disciplines and sectors.
Practitioners will benefit from the insights presented in this
volume, while both undergraduate and postgraduate students will
find this volume an invaluable companion, including those working
in geography, environmental studies, sport sciences, and leisure
and tourism studies.
