Tourism is susceptible to uncertainty and incidents that can directly impact the supply and demand of its discretionary products and services. Nowadays, consumer experience in both, enterprises and destinations is more important than ever as the sector has become globalised, reached maturity and became highly competitive. The pathway to success (or failure) lies on the overall satisfaction of visitors and tourists, which heavily depends on perceived value; a concept that can be co-created or co-destroyed by the very interaction between all social actors and stakeholders involved (including customers and businesses, at the very least). Thus, perspectives and research from different scientific fields and disciplines are highly important for the understanding of this evolutionary process as well as the co-creation and co-destruction in tourism development.
This special issue welcomes theoretical, empirical, experimental, and case study research contributions. These contributions should clearly address the theoretical and practical implications of the research in reference. Both conceptual and empirical work are welcome. The proposed topics may include but are not limited to the following:
§ Competitiveness, sustainability and corporate social responsibility
§ Consumer behaviour, decision-making, expectations, experience and satisfaction
§ Cultural, heritage and tourism planning and development studies
§ Demand-supply forecasting, and performance studies
§ Economics and finance
§ Emerging and innovative research methods and methodologies
§ Human resources, equality, diversity, and labour operations
§ Innovation, creativity and change management
§ IT, ICT, e-tourism, and emerging technologies
§ Marketing, advertising, branding and promotional activities
§ Mobilities
§ Policy, planning, and development
§ Psychology, sociology, and social anthropology
§ Training and education
§ Other interdisciplinary areas related to tourism planning and development
