This book emphasises the work, the remarkable contributions, and
the lifetime achievements of internationally respected scholars who
have made lifelong contribution to advancing tourism studies and
the dissemination of tourism-based knowledge and education across
the world. Strengthening a field and its ability to form the own
traditions is undoubtedly possible with a bridge to be established
between the past, present and future. The capacity of research
carried out today and in the future is built on the outputs of
education and research completed in the past, adding new links to
the chain. The history of tourism studies and education dates to
the early years of the 20th century and began recording a momentum
in its second half. There is, therefore, a lot more to do in terms
of the institutionalization of such a young and dynamic field and
this book aims to introduce tourism scholars with their widest
geographical representation, dating from the first years of tourism
research back in the early 1900s. Volume II of IV includes tributes
to 20 scholars who have defined tourism as an object of academic
study, established its foundations and organisations, and widened
its scope to encompass thousands of empirical studies. Each of
these volumes contains different profiles thereby bringing 80 of
the pioneers in tourism more vividly to life. This book was
originally published as a special issue of Anatolia: An
International Journal of Tourism & Hospitality Research.
