A Research Agenda for Tourism and Well-being

Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary. Interdisciplinary and multidimensional in its approach, this insightful Research Agenda critically analyses the principal issues that have emerged in recent years from tourism and well-being studies. It provides a detailed analysis of definitions and key concepts and explores the research agenda related to product and service development, motivation, segmentation and management using established as well as experimental methodologies. Enlightening contributions from leading scholars detail the role, indicators, and measurement of well-being in tourism economics, expertly examining issues of individual well-being and how experiences of well-being can be facilitated for both employees and tourists. The various impacts of tourism on well-being are analysed from a diverse range of perspectives, including collective experiences of social and diasporic tourism and individual experiences of well-being and transformation. Succinct and cutting-edge, A Research Agenda for Tourism and Well-being will appeal to students, academics, and researchers in tourism, sociology, economics, business, psychology, and human geography. It will also prove insightful to practitioners involved in product and service development, tourism and destination, marketing and human resources management sectors.
