Activating Critical Thinking to Advance the Sustainable Development
Goals in Tourism Systems focuses on the role of critical thinking
and inquiry in the implementation of the 2030 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) in tourism systems. The impetus for the
development of this book emerged from the declaration by the United
Nations (UN) General Assembly of 2017 as the International Year of
Sustainable Tourism for Development. This declaration purposely
positions tourism as a tool to advance the universal 2030 Agenda
for Sustainable Development and the 17 SDGs, thus mutually serving
as an opportunity and responsibility to appraise from a critical
lens what the SDGs signify and how they can be understood from
multiple perspectives. The chapters in the book foster the next
phase of sustainable tourism scholarship that actively considers
the interconnections of the UN's SDGs to tourism theory and praxis,
and activates critical thinking to analyze and advance
sustainability in tourism systems. It articulates the need for the
academy to be more intrinsically involved in ongoing iterations of
multilateral accords and decrees, to ensure they embody more
critical and inclusive transitions toward sustainability, as
opposed to market-driven, neoliberal directives. The contributions
in this book encourage various worldviews challenging, shaping, and
more critically reflecting the realities of global communities as
related to, and impacted by, sustainable tourism development. The
chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue
of the Journal of Sustainable Tourism.
