Increasingly, the tourism industry is looking towards
sustainability, responding to public demand and local environmental
policy. This monograph explores the concept of sustainability in
the context of heritage and tourism studies, as well as examining
the practices adopted to realize or enhance the sustainability of
these industries. Beginning with a broad overview, outlining the
theory and scholarly landscape, this book then focuses on cases of
sustainable tourism in Japan, exploring the concept of
‘mottainai’. Mottainai is a traditional Japanese term and means
an ethical attitude towards the use of a range of resources needed
for human life. This Japanese word can be understood as ‘what a
waste’, and can promote the environmentally-friendly way of life,
encouraging reduce, reuse and recycle. Â
