Interventions in tourism studies have been viewed primarily as ‘public interventions’ and mainly in the sphere of public policies, planning, and development. This book, however, adopts a larger viewpoint by considering the concept of intervention in areas other than the public sector. The purpose, therefore, is to look into different meanings and uses of the notion of intervention which might involve the initiatives of a variety of actors or agents across locales, borders or scales, as well as how the impacts of tourism on a place have been dealt with. To this end, the book examines tourism interventions and their role in making or breaking places, as initiated and implemented by a variety of stakeholders (public/private sector, NGOs and local communities), by exploring the realities of tourism interventions and how they are utilized to alleviate the negative impacts of tourism; innovative and successful interventions that have contributed to tourism’s making of places; and the way in which certain interventions have not been particularly successful or ‘failing forward’. This significant volume moves beyond considerations of ‘just’ policy or ‘just’ marketing, and brings together different forms of action or inaction in one category, which is a useful response to the variety of actors and initiatives in the tourism space.
This book provides students, researchers, and academics with new insight and understanding of how best to sustainably develop, promote, and manage tourism, and how to help destinations become more resilient in the face of future crises.
