Cultural tourism, domestic and international, is comprised of travel that takes people out of their usual environments and focuses on activities that are related to the cultural aspects of an area. Rapid progress in technology, especially the advancement of mobile applications, has changed various aspects of travel, especially in areas such as transportation. Cultural Tourism in the Wake of Web Innovation: Emerging Research and Opportunities is an essential scholarly book that examines revolutionary changes taking place in the field of cultural tourism that are a result of the applications of web-based and other information technologies including Web 2.0 innovations, locational technologies, and digital imaging. It features a wide range of topics such as economic development, mobile applications, and green development, and is intended for use by hotel management, travel agents, event organizers and planners, airline managers, academicians, researchers, students, and professionals in the tourism and hospitality industry.

'This book, although relatively short, is a tour de force. The book is elegantly written, offering a persuasive narrative in which the arguments and the prose flow smoothly from one theme to another. The reader is pulled along various lines of argument running parallel, but ultimately these are brought back together in a concluding synthesis. This is a superb book. I know of no other recent volume with a similar broad scope, internal cohesion, and argumentative rigour, as well as persuasive writing style. I strongly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in global economic transformations and the expanded role of global city regions.' - Larry S. Bourne, Canadian Studies in Population This innovative volume offers an in-depth analysis of the many ways in which new forms of capitalism in the 21st century are affecting and altering the processes of urbanization. Beginning with the recent history of capitalism and urbanization and moving into a thorough and complex discussion of the modern city, this book outlines the dynamics of what the author calls the third wave of urbanization, characterized by global capitalism s increasing turn to forms of production revolving around technology-intensive artifacts, financial services, and creative commodities such as film, music, and fashion. The author explores how this shift toward a cognitive and cultural economy has caused dramatic changes in the modern economic landscape in general and in the form and function of world cities in particular. Armed with cutting-edge research and decades of expertise, Allen J. Scott breaks new ground in identifying and explaining how the cities of the past are being reshaped into a complex system of global economic spaces marked by intense relationships of competition and cooperation. Professors and students in areas such as geography, urban planning, sociology, and economics will find much to admire in this pioneering volume, as will journalists, policy-makers, and other professionals with an interest in urban studies.
