Description

Product Description Competitiveness and Tourism brings together the key scholarly articles which discuss the challenges of managing, maintaining and enhancing competitive tourism destinations. This authoritative collection of articles covers service sector competition, conceptual models of tourism competitiveness, the measurement and modelling of tourism competitiveness, organizing, planning and management issues, tourism marketing, price competitiveness and demand elasticity, sustainability issues and case studies of tourism competitiveness from around the world. Along with an original introduction by the editors, this two-volume set is designed for scholars, students and practitioners interested in a deeper understanding of the nature of tourism competition and implications for tourism and destination management. Review 'Ritchie and Crouch's book The Competitive Destination: A Sustainable Tourism Perspective (CABI, 2003) has become one of the seminal works in tourism destination research and management. It engendered a number of major research papers; many of which I was pleased to publish in the Journal of Travel Research. I am excited to see Geoff and Brent continuing their work with the publication of this edited book. The list of chapter authors is a "who's who" of tourism researchers and includes many key destination competitiveness papers. In the eight years since their original work, the topic of destination competitiveness has become even more important. It is one of today's key forces driving tourism research and destination management. I fully anticipate this book will become a required reader for tourism educators, graduate students and destination managers. I anticipate it will lead to yet another surge in excellent, important research.' --Richard Perdue, Virginia Tech, US About the Author Edited by Geoffrey I. Crouch, Professor of Tourism Policy and Marketing, La Trobe Business School, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia and J.R. Brent Ritchie, Professorship in Tourism Management and Chair, World Tourism Education & Research Centre, University of Calgary, Canada
