1.	Adamiak, Czeslaw (författare) Current state and development of Airbnb accommodation offer in 167 countries 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:19, s. 3131-3149 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The paper examines the size, structure, distribution, dynamics, and use of Airbnb accommodation offer in 167 countries. Web-scrapping Airbnb website in fall 2018 and 2019 resulted in a datasets on 5.7 million listings, including 3.6 million active listings which have been rented out (reviewed) during the last year. Listings are divided into four groups based on types of properties and numbers of offers hosted by one platform user. The results show that the platform is most commonly used to rent out entire apartments by multi-hosts. The numbers of Airbnb listings in countries depend on the level of economic development and size of inbound tourism. One third of Airbnb supply is located in big cities, another one third near seacoasts. Airbnb offer grows most quickly in its relatively new markets, while in primary urban destinations of some European countries it is stable or decreases. The offer of professional hosts is growing more quickly than of peer-to-peer hosts. Differences in the frequency of use and prices of listings exaggerate the geographical unevenness in benefits and impacts of Airbnb activity. Airbnb supply is not a uniform segment of tourist accommodation and its effects on destinations should be considered in relation to territorial context.
2.	Akhshik, Arash, et al. (författare) Equifinal paths to megafauna conservation through memorable wildlife tourism experiences : evidence from the restitution of the European bison (Bison bonasus) in Poland 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 26:18, s. 3064-3084 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Despite a vast literature conceptualizing a memorable tourism experience, empirical studies overlook the context in which those experiences are produced and compiled into actions that benefit the environment. Accordingly, we need to better understand to what extent the experience of megafauna enclosures strengthens visitors' overall support for wildlife protection. To close this knowledge gap, we study memorable tourism experiences in the Bison enclosures within Poland to better understand the significance of the environmental context in which the experience induces support for protecting the species. To this end, the study employs both symmetric and asymmetric models to uncover the complexity of individual behavioural paths. The PLS-SEM results confirm the role of memorable experiences in the relationship between attitudinal and behavioural outcomes. In a complimentary manner, the fsQCA results reveal how environmental planners can analyze complex constellations of internal and external factors to elucidate the conditions that generate visitor support for wildlife protection.
3.	Akhshik, Arash, et al. (författare) Memorable tourism experiences and critical outcomes among nature-based visitors : a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis approach 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 26:18, s. 2981-3003 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Intense global competition for natural resources, manifesting in negative environmental externalities, has forced hospitality and tourism stakeholders to adopt strategies that may result in economic growth in tandem with environmental conservation. One such strategy is to cultivate travellers' loyalty to the tourism destinations and encourage them to participate in environmentally friendly activities. Using the affective theory of social exchange, social identity, stimulus-organism-response, tourism consumption system and attachment theories, this study proposes and tests a configurational model that predicts the antecedents of visitors' pro-environmental behavioural intentions (PEBIs) regarding their desire to revisit (REVI) and recommend (RECI) the services that they experienced. Fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis was applied to assess the effect of memorable tourism experiences, place attachment, and demographics on these outcomes. The findings revealed that multiple configurations can predict visitors' intentions at tourist destinations. This study's implications for theory, practice, and future research directions are also discussed.
4.	Amore, Alberto, et al. (författare) Elite interview, urban tourism governance and post-disaster recovery : evidence from post-earthquake Christchurch, New Zealand 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:13, s. 2192-2206 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Despite the long tradition of fieldwork and qualitative research practice in tourism studies, the reporting of methodological notes and reflections is limited in the literature. Many excellent methodological remarks in research reports and graduate theses find few outlets in academic journals and those few contributions that are eventually published often emphasize the novelty of the method rather than crucial aspects such as positionality and embeddedness. This is further evident in urban studies with regard to post-disaster recovery research. This article seeks to fill the current gap in the field by providing a reflective methodological account on fieldwork and elite interviews in post-earthquake Christchurch, New Zealand. It does so by implementing a framework addressing key points in the elite interview process, with emphasis on access to fieldwork sites, power relations, positionality, rapport and ethical issues. The manuscript presents aspects of fieldwork, spatiality and power relations that tend to be overlooked in the literature. Albeit being context-specific, it is argued that the evidence from this study can also have relevance to the understanding of fieldwork in other post-disaster and tourism contexts.
5.	Amore, Alberto, et al. (författare) The impacts of Airbnb in Athens, Lisbon and Milan: a rent gap theory perspective 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:20, s. 3329-3342 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The 2007–2008 Global Financial Crisis profoundly impacted the housing markets, particularly of the so-called PIGS countries. Main cities in Portugal, Italy and Greece have seen a sharp decrease in house prices and rent value since 2010. At the same time, the rise of Airbnb has contributed to the reframing of housing market demand in cities, with an increase of temporary lettings in prime urban tourist areas. Understandably, this has direct implications for local residents, with renters’ displacement, tourism gentrification and raising cases of tourismphobia. This article provides insights from three cities – Athens, Lisbon and Milan – to show how the dynamics in the housing market and the boost of Airbnb over the last decade are steadily changing the urban populations of the aforementioned cities. This research builds upon the rent gap theory and the Luke’s’ Power Theory to illustrate how Airbnb is fostering a new form of urban displacement at a faster rate than traditional housing gentrification, with the renting of prime residential areas to tourists.
6.	Assiouras, Ioannis, et al. (författare) Exploring how interaction leads to value co-creation, value co-destruction, and value no-creation during service mega-disruptions 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor and Francis Ltd.. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This study investigates the principles and the factors influencing interaction for resource integration during service mega-disruptions (SMDs) in the tourism ecosystem. Utilizing qualitative data from semi-structured interviews conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, this article reveals that interaction principles of willingness to exchange, access to information, dialogue, transparency, coordination, adaptation, and informed risk assessment lead to value co-creation (VCC). Failure to follow these principles leads to value no-creation (VNC) or value co-destruction (VCD). During SMDs, the most critical factors influencing interaction for resource integration are traveller’s safety needs, initiation of travel cancellation, sympathy, proactivity, omnichannel communication, the effectiveness of technology and employees as well as the number of involved actors. Forced indifference in VNC is uncovered, where firms’ constraints hinder their engagement despite tourists’ desire for interaction. This study contributesto the understanding of value dynamics during SMDs and calls for further exploration of multiple stakeholders’ perspectives in such contexts.
7.	Back, Andreas, 1980- (författare) Temporary resident evil? : Managing diverse impacts of second-home tourism 2020 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 23:11, s. 1328-1342 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Second-home tourism is a popular form of tourism in many countries. Sweden has over 600,000 second homes and more than half of the population have access to such properties. Previous literature on second-home tourism indicates that it impacts local communities and municipalities in many different ways, ranging from public services and land-use planning to the housing market and the local economy. However, it has not been sufficiently investigated how, where and by which spatial patterns these impacts might come into effect. Previous research has mostly been in the form of case studies, making generalizations difficult. This paper examines whether a theorized heterogeneity of second-home landscapes transfers into actual spatial variance in the impacts of second-home tourism. The investigation is done through semi-structured interviews with officials from 20 Swedish municipalities, selected using a theoretical model and comprehensive quantitative data. Results reveal considerable variance between different locations and argues for more context-aware second-home research.

(författare) Female entrepreneurship, creating shared value, and empowerment in tourism : the neutralizing effect of gender-based discrimination 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 26:21, s. 3465-3482 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Given the significance of entrepreneurial women's contribution to the tourism industry and the fifth UN Sustainable Development Goal (gender equality) this study aims to investigate: first, the interrelationship between women entrepreneurship, creating shared value, and women's empowerment; and second, the effect of gender-based discriminations on women's entrepreneurship, creation shared value, and women's empowerment in the tourism context. Data were collected from 167 Iranian women operating various tourism-related enterprises and analysed using structural equation modelling in WarpPLS software. The results highlight the positive direct and indirect effects of female entrepreneurship on women's empowerment and the importance of the mediating role of creating shared value between these two constructs. The results also confirmed the negative impacts of gender-based discrimination in entrepreneurship and creating shared value for female tourism entrepreneurs in Iran. The practical implications of the study, limitations, and potential directions for future research are discussed.
9.	Brandin, Elisabeth (författare) Versions of 'wild' and the importance of fences in Swedish wildlife tourism involving moose 2009 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 12:5-6, s. 413-427 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract There seems to be a trend for humans to interact with free-ranging wildlife in addition to interact with animals in parks and zoos. In Sweden, there is also an opposing spatial trend. One example is the establishment of themed moose parks where visitors can interact closely with the animals. This raises questions about the role of spatial context for how encounters between moose and humans take place, which influences the meanings of ‘wild’ moose. In this article, the meaning of ‘wild’ in Swedish wildlife tourism involving moose (Alces alces, ‘elk’ in English) is explored by a performative approach to wildlife tourism in three spatial settings of zoo, moose safari and moose park. It is argued that the meaning of ‘wild’ becomes practised as ‘exotic stranger’, ‘admired acquaintance’ or ‘close personal friend’ depending on the kind of bodily encounter that takes place within the three spatial settings. These encounters give rise to opportunities to learn and to be entertained by the moose in different ways due to variation in spatial context.
10.	Darbi, William Phanuel Kofi, et al. (författare) Elite interviews : critical practice and tourism 2014 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 17:9, s. 832-848 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The elite interview method has been applied to the study of politics and policy-making and to other social and organisational contexts, although it has been relatively little applied in a formal fashion in tourism research. Nevertheless it is a method that has the potential of enhancing the quality and quantity of research data given the power and influence of elite subjects. The conduct of elite interviews suggests that there are qualitatively different aspects in interviewing ‘up’ as compared to interviewing ‘across’ or ‘down’. The article provides a review of some of the major issues involved in the conduct of elite interviews and highlights some of the tactics that researchers may use in the interview process as well as some of the potential ethical and publishing constraints. Even though there are a number of potential methodological challenges in using this method it provides a valuable approach in tourism research, especially studies that aim to understand decision-making processes, policy-making and perceptions. It is shown that individual ingenuity and reflexivity are required in order to overcome some of the challenges reported in existing studies.
11.	Dutta, Anupam, et al. (författare) Brexit uncertainty and volatility persistence in tourism demand 2021 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 24:16, s. 2225-2232 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Tourism has emerged as one of the leading components of aggregate economic growth in most developed economies, especially in the UK, where it is predicted to grow at an annual rate of 3.8% through 2025. Because tourism demand represents individuals choice between leisure and work, a persistence of negative shocks, such as Brexit uncertainty, can be detrimental to the growth of tourism via its impact on agents utility function of a directed consumption of leisure for a specific country. This note fills a gap in the literature by providing an econometric estimate of time-varying volatility in tourism demand following Brexit-driven Economic Policy Uncertainty. Using seasonally adjusted and trend-extracted tourist arrival series along with Brexit uncertainty, we find a strong evidence of long-run persistence in (asymmetric) volatility in tourist arrival. In particular, the BREXIT referendum appeared to create ambiguity among international visitors to the UK. Our results have important policy implications.
12.	Falk, Martin, et al. (författare) High regional economic activity repels domestic tourism during summer of pandemic 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:8, s. 1209-1225 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This study investigates empirically how the regional economic activity, measured as the agglomeration of establishments, affects domestic travel and tourism flows during the COVID-19 summer of 2020. Domestic tourism flows are approximated by the number of overnight stays in all 96 French regions. Results from spatial estimations reveal that lower economic activity attracts more domestic tourists. This relationship becomes inflated if the neighbouring areas are characterized by equally sparse economic activity. In July and August 2020, regions with a 10% lower density of establishments (combined effect of within the same region and surrounding regions) have a between one and two percentage points higher growth rate in domestic overnight stays than others. The share of second homes is also significantly and positively related to domestic tourism. Coastal regions and regions surrounded by national parks have a larger growth in domestic overnight stays in August 2020 (by 15 and 24 percentage points, respectively). The counterfactual estimations based on data for the years prior to the pandemic (2017-2019) reveal that regions with a high establishment density are growing in domestic tourism. The other local characteristics investigated are either insignificant (direct effects) or have the opposite sign (spillover effects).
13.	Fennell, David A., et al. (författare) Tourism, animals & the vacant niche : a scoping review and pedagogical agenda 2024 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; , s. 1-29 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The topic of animal ethics has advanced in tourism studies since its inception in 2000, based on a diverse range of studies on species involvement, types of uses and contexts, level of engagement, states of animals, and theoretical perspectives. While there is still considerable scope to amplify research on animal-based tourism, a gap exists in tourism pedagogy amidst the field’s emphasis on a new expanding consciousness platform. We review the depth of existing scholarship on animal ethics in tourism and develop an agenda for advancing animal ethics pedagogy for the future. Our intent is to issue a call to action for curriculum committees, programme administrators, and educators to recognise and act on this critical moral domain in tourism education.

15.	Fredman, Peter, et al. (författare) Increased Visitation from National Park Designation 2007 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 10:1, s. 87-95 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Many national parks around the world are major tourist attractions. While increases in national park tourism provides business opportunities, there are several economic, social and ecological aspects that need to be monitored in order to sustain high quality visitor experiences. This paper reports findings from visitor surveys at Fulufjället National Park, Sweden-one year prior to and one year after the national park designation in 2002. The purpose is to monitor short term changes in park use. Data from on site visitor counters show a 40% increase in the number of visitors, while follow-up mail surveys reveal several changes in visitor characteristics, use patterns, expenditures and attitudes.
16.	Gelter, Jennie, et al. (författare) A Meta-Narrative Analysis of Smart Tourism Destinations : Implications for Tourism Destination Management 2021 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 24:20, s. 2860-2874 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The concept of smart tourism destinations has gained increased interest in tourism research. In this study, we show how previous research has shaped the current discourse on smart tourism destinations. By analysing meta-narratives, we outline how the use of language has influencedthe research domain of smart tourism destinations.Whenthe scope of a research field is broad and still unclear, a systematic meta-narrative analysis of the literature is recommended, to provide a holistic view and an understanding of how narratives unfold over time. Our findings highlight that there are certain words that dominate the contemporary discourse in this research field, presented as meta-narratives of smart tourism destinations. Our study shows how language plays an important role in providing frameworks for the research discourse and offers a legitimation of master ideas. By analysing the language used in published scientific texts for describing and defining smart tourism destinations, we identify the meta-narratives that build major language-based concepts and how these have formed the research field of smart tourism destinations.
17.	Ghaderi, Zahed, et al. (författare) Green supply chain management, environmental costs and supply chain performance in the hotel industry : the mediating role of supply chain agility and resilience 2024 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 27:13, s. 2101-2117 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Although developing a green supply chain is a topic of growing interest in the hotel industry, research on hospitality green supply chain management (GSCM) is limited. This study investigates the effect of internal and external measures of GSCM on environmental cost reduction, and how environmental cost reduction improves the supply chain performance with the mediating role of agility and resilience of a green supply chain. Data were collected from 370 employees of the top-rated hotels in Tehran, Iran, and analyzed using structural equation modelling in SmartPLS software. The findings revealed that internal and external measures of green supply chain management have a positive and significant effect on the environmental cost reduction of hotels. The reduction in environmental costs directly affected the variables of green supply chain agility, green supply chain resilience and green supply chain performance. The findings also confirmed the mediating role of green supply chain agility and resilience between environmental cost reduction and green supply chain performance. Overall, the study reinforces that addressing environmental measures in the hotel industry could have favourable consequences for hotels to improve supply chain performance.
18.	Ghaderi, Zahed, et al. (författare) How does sharing travel experiences on social media improve social and personal ties? 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Sharing travel experience on social media has become an important element of many people's lifestyle, whether it be as a hobby, personal expression, economic rewards or other purposes. While previous studies have extensively investigated the significant role of social media in the sharing of travel experience and how it influences the travel decisions of others, very little research has examined on the travel-sharing behaviour of frequent travellers and how they select travel content and social media platforms on which share and how this sharing behaviour improves their personal ties. This study applied a qualitative research design focusing on 22 in-depth interviews with frequent travellers. The results revealed that frequent travellers have mindfully different sharing behaviour pre, during and post trips, and consider the needs and reactions of followers. Authenticity, uniqueness, relevancy, emotional connection, engagement, visual appeal and educational value of the experience are key factors in selecting what they share. Functionality, wide reach, visual appeal, engagement and the target audience were key in selecting effective social media platforms. Finally, sense of community, fostering empathy, communication with peers, memories together and documentation of their experiences were important in improving their personal ties. The results offer significant theoretical and practical implications.
19.	Ghaderi, Zahed, et al. (författare) Quarantine hotel employees' protection motivation, pandemic fear, resilience and behavioural intention 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 26:5, s. 681-691 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Quarantine hotels have been established by governments to accommodate COVID-19 infected or potentially infectious guests. The employees of these hotels, despite the high-risk environment, must provide services to guests. However, limited research is conducted on the impacts of the pandemic on their psychological well-being and health. This study investigates the protection motivation of quarantine hotel employees, fear of infection, coping strategies and behavioural intentions towards guests. A sample of 242 respondents in designated quarantine hotels in Iran revealed that fear of infection significantly affects employees' protection motivation intention. Employee psychological resilience is greatly affected by different coping strategies. The findings indicate that untact hospitality can significantly be increased by the protection intentions of hotel employees. Cautious contact with guests is also significantly increased by protection motivation intention and employees' psychological resilience. The results offer both theoretical and practical implications.
20.	Gil, Javier, et al. (författare) The professionalization of Airbnb in Madrid : far from a collaborative economy 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:20, s. 3343-3362 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract 'Claudia' is neither a real name nor an owner who puts a room at the service of the collaborative economy. It is a pseudonym used by a transnational company which manages short-rentals apartments: 211 Airbnb listings in Madrid, 138 of which are in the city centre. This paper's main arguments are based on the fact that Madrid city centre is experiencing a process of airbnbisation which is driven by professional actors specialized in the short-term rental business. The analysis of this model includes an in-depth examination of the professionalization, concentration and monopolization of Airbnb in Madrid, from a temporal and territorial perspective. The paper concludes that Airbnb in Madrid is dominated by professional actors specialized in the business of renting apartments as short-term rentals, who mainly operate within the city's Central District, and whose activity does not comply with the principles of the sharing economy. This model has more to do with traditional forms of accommodation than with new hospitality models based on the sharing economy principles, and generates negative impacts on the economic sustainability of the city and its inhabitants.
21.	Godis, Nataliia, et al. (författare) Memory tourism in a contested landscape : exploring identity discourses in Lviv, Ukraine 2018 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 21:15, s. 1690-1709 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The study explores divergent representations and cultural identity in a historically contested landscape. The first form of representations includes politically amended place marketing. It is analysed how public discourse on a city’s development and regeneration articulate inscriptions of local authorities to pursue political-economic agendas. The second form of representations is diaspora’s imaginary of a pedigree place that derives from genealogical research and travel. In this way, genealogy enables counter-memories to uncritical marketing and ‘alternative’ voices in recast of local history. A contested landscape is conceptualized in the framework of politics of past to reflect stakeholders’ present-day preoccupations. Two forms of representations conceptualize spaces of dominance and resistance in Lefèbvre’s (1991) production of space. The empiric study is conducted in Lviv, a city with complicated past and national identity due to interchangeable powers. The fieldwork comprises the ongoing marketing campaign in Lviv launched in connection to Euro-2012, and the Polish, Jewish, and West Ukrainian diasporic representations. The findings show how the national and the Eurocentric meta-narratives embed the identity discourses of the official élite, and how diasporic texts suggest a genre of resistance to the marketing scripts.
22.	Godtman Kling, Kristin, et al. (författare) (In) equality in the outdoors : gender perspective on recreation and tourism media in the Swedish mountains 2020 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 23:2, s. 233-247 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This paper examines gender differences in participation in various outdoor recreation and tourism activities in the Swedish mountain region, and how these activities are portrayed from a gender perspective on the websites of five major tourist destinations. Spending time in nature has been linked to better health and well-being, and this article contributes to research on the unequal opportunities women and men have in taking part of such advantages. Results show that there is a gender difference in both participation and in representation of outdoor recreation. The observed gender difference is not only in line with the traditional heteronormativity but also suggests that new trends in outdoor recreation are further favoring traditionally masculine modes of engagement with nature. This suggests the need for re-thinking not only gender norms but also human relationships with nature in general.
23.	Gössling, Stefan, et al. (författare) A cross-country comparison of accommodation manager perspectives on online review manipulation 2019 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 22:14, s. 1744-1763 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Accommodation businesses are increasingly dependent on a limited number of reservation platforms. A significant feature of these platforms is guest evaluations, which are transformed into ratings and rankings. As the positioning of the business in comparison to competitors determines customer demand, accommodation managers have considerable interest in maintaining or improving their online reputation. One response may be to engage in manipulation strategies. This paper presents the results of a survey including 270 hotel managers in five countries, Germany, Israel, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland. Managers confirm growing competition as a result of ratings and rankings, and they report that guests are increasingly aware of the importance of reviews. To avert negative online feedback impacts, managers intervene strategically. The paper discusses new market pressures, emergent consumer judgement culture and consumer citizenship, opportunities for legal redress and the emerging importance of reputation management strategies.
24.	Gössling, Stefan, et al. (författare) Are emissions from global air transport significantly underestimated? 2024 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Air transport is energy-intense, and considerable attention has been paid to the sector's use of fuel and emissions of greenhouse gases. Commercial aviation is believed to currently emit about 1 Gt CO2 per year, if considering global bunker fuel use (scope 1 in the Greenhouse Gas Protocol). A growing database is becoming available on scope 1-3 emissions; this is, including up- and downstream emissions, and it is now possible to assess the aviation system's carbon intensity more comprehensively. This paper investigates the annual reports of 26 of the largest airlines in the world by market capitalisation, finding that reporting on emissions for scopes 1-3 is still inconsistent and characterised by reporting gaps. Yet, available data suggests that scope 3 emissions are significant (about 30% of scope 1 emissions). These findings have repercussions for the sector's net-zero ambitions, climate governance, consumer choices and air transport finance, as the overall contribution from air travel to climate change remains underestimated. Results suggest that it is in the sector's interest to present robust, transparent, consistent and accurate emission inventories - and to engage with the implications.
25.	Gössling, Stefan, et al. (författare) Restaurant tipping in Europe : a comparative assessment 2021 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 24:6, s. 811-823 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Tipping is a social norm in many countries and has important functions as a source of income, with significant social welfare effects. Tipping can also represent a form of lost tax revenue, as service workers and restaurants may not declare all cash tips. These interrelationships remain generally insufficiently understood. This paper presents the results of a comparative survey of resident tipping patterns in restaurants in Spain, France, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, and the Netherlands. ANOVA and ANCOVA analyses confirm significant variation in tipping norms between countries, for instance with regard to the frequency of tipping and the proportion of tips in relation to bill size. The paper discusses these findings in the context of employment conditions and social welfare effects, comparing the European Union minimum wage model to gratuity-depending income approaches in the USA. Results have importance for the hospitality sector and policymakers concerned with social welfare.
26.	Gössling, Stefan, et al. (författare) Swedish air travellers and voluntary carbon offsets : towards the Co-creation of Environmental Value? 2009 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 12:1, s. 1-19 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract There is now a broad consensus that aviation is a significant contributor to global warming. One question that thus arises is whether voluntary carbon-offsetting schemes can make a significant contribution to mitigating the contribution of aviation to climate change. These schemes have seen considerable growth in recent years, even though the overall amount of emissions offset remains negligible: tour operators and airlines offering voluntary carbon offsets report that customers show limited interested in these schemes. In the light of this, the article seeks to discuss the implications of voluntary carbon-offsetting schemes as a means of compensating emissions from aviation, and goes on to assess air travellers' knowledge of and attitudes to these schemes. Structural problems that have to be overcome to create broader interest in voluntary carbon offsetting are discussed in the context of co-creation of environmental value at the level of economic transactions between individual passengers (consumers) and airlines (producers), based on a survey of Swedish air travellers.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Online evaluations are one of the most important innovations in tourism in recent years, often combining a review/rating (business-specific evaluation) and a ranking (inter-business comparison). As online reputation determines economic success, tourism managers may be tempted to manipulate online content. This paper presents the results from a qualitative study involving 20 hotel managers in southern Sweden, and their perspectives on manipulation. Results confirm that there exists a wide range of review manipulation strategies, many of which are difficult to control. Even though only few managers appear to systematically manipulate, online evaluations represent a significant challenge for businesses, as they introduce direct competition and foster consumer judgement cultures. It is postulated that managers will increasingly find themselves in a Prisoner's dilemma, representing a situation where engaging in manipulation is the most rational choice in an increasingly competitive market situation.
28.	Gössling, Stefan, et al. (författare) Tourism as connectedness 2018 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 21:14, s. 1586-1600 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Late modernity in developed nations is characterized by changing social and psychological conditions, including individualization, processes of competition and loneliness. Remaining socially connected is becoming increasingly important. In this situation, travel provides meaning through physical encounters, inclusion in traveller Gemeinschaft based on shared norms, beliefs and interests, and social status in societies increasingly defined by mobilities. As relationships are forged and found in mobility, travel is no longer an option, rather a necessity for sociality, identity construction, affirmation or alteration. Social contexts and the underlying motivations for tourism have changed fundamentally in late modernity: non-tourism has become a threat to self-conceptions. By integrating social and psychological perspectives, this paper expands and deepens existing travel and mobilities discussions to advance the understanding of tourism as a mechanism of social connectedness, and points to implications for future tourism research.
29.	Hall, C. Michael, et al. (författare) Airbnb and the sharing economy: Introduction 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:19, s. 3057-3067 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract A large share of growth in the sharing or platform economy is driven by peer-to-peer (P2P) accommodation providers such as Airbnb. The literature argues for both positive and negative socio-cultural, economic and environmental impacts emanating from the tourism and hospitality businesses and value chains that are dependent on AirBnB and other online platforms. These impacts are felt in terms of competition with more traditional business models (e.g. hotels, motels and B&Bs) and their influence on tourist and visitor flows as well as their spatial impacts that has led to substantial community opposition to accommodation providers that utilise Airbnb in some destinations. This introduction to the special issue on AirBnB and the sharing economy identifies several themes in the consumption and production of the sharing, peer-to-peer and platform economies on tourism at various scales, ranging from international networks, destinations and business, through to neighbourhoods and individuals. Although Airbnb provides the primary frame by which to investigate the relationships between the sharing economy and tourism and the implications of so-called disruptive innovation this introduction also notes some of the wider implications of the sharing and platform economy for people and places.

Michael (författare) On the mobility of tourism mobilities 2015 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 18:1, s. 7-10 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Tourism mobilities are increasing over time and over space. However, while overall growth is clearly of significance, there is a need for a greater interrogation of some of the underlying assumptions made with respect to the nature of tourism mobility in the highly North American and Eurocentric English language tourism literature. Therefore, closer examination of mobilities in the so-called emerging economies that are becoming of growing importance with respect to aggregate tourism consumption and production may shed significant light on our understandings of tourism and associated mobilities.

Issues of social, economic, and environmental change are further complicated by current geopolitical conflicts and competition. These issues raise important questions with respect to the role of academic journals in capacity building as well as creating a framework within which different geopolitical perspectives can be accommodated and productive debate encouraged. Implications are noted.

The aim of this paper is to deconstruct the 'indigenous'/'non-indigenous' categories as well as the geographical categories to which they are linked, using examples from tourism in northern Fennoscandia and northwest Russia, selected as areas with circumstances that vary greatly both locally and regionally. Specific focus is on the construction of labels and restrictions of use, particularly regarding handicrafts/souvenirs as a specific object of indigeneity to separate it from other objects. The study reviews the processes in tourism for constructing, labelling, and valuing - and thereby also exerting power upon - specific conceptions, and thereby also on the contesting of such processes amongst broader, but often unacknowledged, local groups.
35.	Kim, Myung Ja, et al. (författare) Does using public transport affect tourist subject well-being and behaviour relevant to sustainability? : Value-attitude-behaviour theory and artificial intelligence benefits 2024 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 27:10, s. 1666-1682 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Increasing tourist use of public transport is a potentially significant means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. There are limited theoretically informed studies that focus on domestic tourist use of public transport, particularly in an Asian cultural context (e.g. South Korea). To bridge the research gap, this study applies and tests an extended value-attitude-behaviour (EVAB) theory, including personal and social norms and subjective well-being, along with artificial intelligence (AI) benefits as a moderator based on partial least squares-structural equation modelling, multi-group analysis, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis and deep learning in South Korea. The high and low AI benefit groups are compared to each other according to multi-analysis methods. Results revealed that the EVAB model well explains travellers' behaviour with public transport and AI benefits partially moderate the research model, showing some unique differences.
36.	Kim, Myung Ja, et al. (författare) Investment crowdfunding in the visitor economy : the roles of venture quality, uncertainty, and funding amount 2020 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 23:20, s. 2533-2554 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Investment crowdfunding is a growing means to finance startups and small businesses, including in the visitor economy (tourism, leisure, sports, creative media, arts, and culture). However, research on investor behaviour in investment crowdfunding is extremely limited in this area, particularly with respect to the impacts of venture quality, uncertainty, and funding amounts. To investigate this gap, a comprehensive and integrated model on the effects of venture quality and uncertainty level is developed and tested on crowdfunding participation in investing in visitor economy projects in South Korea. Results show that venture quality and uncertainty level had significantly positive impacts on crowdfunding participation which, in turn, highly influences word-of-mouth and re-participation. The funding amount invested was found to moderate the relationships among those constructs in the research model. Consequently, this study offers new insights for researchers and industry stakeholders in investment crowdfunding in the tourism and leisure sectors.
37.	Kim, Myung Ja, et al. (författare) Is tourist walkability and well-being different? 2023 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 26:2, s. 171-176 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Despite the environmental and health importance of tourist walking, specific research on walking and tourism is limited, with walking in leisure and work contexts often being used as a proxy. To fill this gap, this study identifies the effects of perception of air quality and mitigating climate change on attachment to walking relevant to walkable places and subjective well-being, along with comparing tourism, leisure, and work activity groups in walking, verifying six hypotheses. The findings of this study shed light on the effects of environmental factors (perception of air quality and climate change mitigation) on attachment to walking, providing new knowledge to the tourism and active transport literature. Attachment to walking and walkable place are key predictors for walkers' subjective well-being. Importantly, walking when a tourist is significantly different from walking for leisure and work, providing potential insights for the development of behavioural interventions to encourage walking.

An extended model of goal-directed behaviour (EMGB) is created and verified with individual and organizational interventions, comparing space tourism experienced and non-experienced travellers. Results revealed that individual intervention has fully significant effects on all MGB constructs, while organizational intervention has partially significant impacts, which in turn influence desire relevant to behavioural intention. The findings from fsQCA showed the different profiles of experienced and non-experienced tourists.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This study examines the influence of ChatGPT on tourist behaviour using complexity theory. Factors such as media richness, anthropomorphism, trust in ChatGPT, and trust in online travel agencies are investigated to understand their effects on purchasing intentions and word-of-mouth, along with a moderator of sustainable-tourism action (practice). Results revealed the relationships among the variables, highlighting the crucial role of trust in shaping consumer behaviour. A comparison between high and low levels of sustainable-tourism practice groups provides further insights. The study discusses implications for the travel industry, emphasising the importance of leveraging ChatGPT to enhance tourist trust and sustainable actions.
40.	Kim, Myung Ja, et al. (författare) What influences COVID-19 biosecurity behaviour for tourism? 2022 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 25:1, s. 21-27 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Since COVID-19 affects tourism globally, understanding what influences biosecurity behaviour is essential. However, few theoretically conceptualized studies have been conducted on COVID-19 biosecurity travel behaviour. To fill this gap, this study built and tested a comprehensive research model that includes non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), psychological and financial resilience, and biosecurity behaviour, along with four moderators. Results reveal that NPIs have a great effect on biosecurity behaviour and the four moderators partially differentiate international travel behaviour, suggesting substantial theoretical and practical implications for tourism-related biosecurity practices.
41.	Larsson, Lars, 1969-, et al. (författare) Coping with second home tourism : responses and strategies of private and public service providers in western Sweden 2019 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Routledge. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 22:16, s. 1958-1974 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Second homes have increasingly gained academic attention, not least within tourism research. Nevertheless, most studies have addressed the topic from the perspective of the second home owners, highlighting issues such as motivation for second home ownership, use patterns, geographical location, and meanings of second homes. Even the impacts of second homes have mainly been addressed as the accumulated outcome of their owners’ decisions. Hence, second homes have mainly been conceptualized as personal/family projects. Relatively little research has been done on the ways local communities cope with second home tourism. This is the departure point for this paper, with the purpose of analysing coping strategies among public and private stakeholders regarding second home tourism. It is argued that communities have various ways of coping, ranging from resistance to resource utilization. The proposed conceptual framework is empirically applied to the case of the Swedish West Coast. In an interview survey of public and private service providers, different strategies are identified. The results of the survey indicate that second home owners are increasingly seized on as a resource that can be utilized for business development. Ultimately, institutional preconditions imply that second homes remain a challenge for local municipalities.

The Role of Money among Nature-Based Tourism Entrepreneurs 2014 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 17:4, s. 373-380 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This research note suggests that the relationship between nature-based tourism entrepreneurs and money is complex and not fully understood. Based on observations from the Swedish supply data, four propositions are presented to illustrate why this is the case. We argue that (1) the identity of the entrepreneurs are not compatible with profit and growth, (2) niche markets and limited market knowledge obstruct opportunity for growth, (3) dependence of natural resources put sustainability ahead of growth and (4) nature-based tourism firms have limited control over their production process. These propositions can assist in better understanding how nature-based tourism companies can contribute to regional development and serve as a point of departure for further research.
43.	Lundberg, Christine, et al. (författare) Success Factors and Constraints among Nature-Based Tourism Entrepreneurs 2012 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 15:7, s. 649-671 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The nature-based tourism sector is characterised by small-scale businesses often located in rural regions. As a consequence, business success is dependent not just upon the sustainable use of natural resources, but also on several external (e.g. infrastructure and destination images) and internal (e.g. management and human resources) factors. Many nature-based tourism entrepreneurs are also driven by non-monetary objectives, which imply different management priorities compared with many other businesses. This study provides an exploratory analysis of business success factors and constraints among nature-based tourism entrepreneurs in Sweden. Data collected in 2009 include ‘life-history’ interviews, a telephone survey of 176 entrepreneurs, and follow-up critical incident interviews. The results show that internal factors are more common for business success, while external factors dominate among the constraints. Among the 26 success items studied, management (commitment and competence), access to natural resources, and lifestyle are considered the most important. Low profitability, lack of capital, regulations, infrastructure, and taxes are given the highest weights among the constraints. The classification system of Ishikawa [(1990). Introduction to quality control (J.H. Loftus, Trans.). Tokyo: 3A Corporation] is used to analyse how business success and constraints are structured over time. This study also elaborates how success factors and constraints are associated with different types of businesses, including perceived monetary and non-monetary achievements.
44.	Margaryan, Lusine (författare) Nature as a commercial setting : the case of nature-based tourism providers in Sweden 2018 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 21:16, s. 1893-1911 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This study analyses variations in the operational setting in the context of nature-based tourism (NBT) and draws much needed attention to the supply side of this sector by segmenting the NBT service providers based on their setting preferences. This paper focuses on the setting of NBT as an important alternative avenue for understanding the operational context of NBT supply. This approach is subsequently empirically explored through a national survey among the NBT service providers in Sweden. The data analysis demonstrates that the companies can be rather clearly clustered based on the variations in the perceived importance and impact of NBT setting components. This study therefore helps in understanding the role of a commercial setting in explaining NBT supply, which has a potential to not only contribute to developing the research of this sector further but also help in avoiding possible conflicts with other natural resource users and improve its overall management.

(författare) Progress on outbound tourism expenditure research : A review 2018 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 22:20, s. 2511-2537 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract This study aims to identify how the paradigm of outbound tourism expenditure (OTE) research transforms from economic to social concern. It also explicates the evolution of OTE from an advocacy platform to a sustainability platform. This study adopts a hybrid of narrative and systematic reviews to study OTE as a complex social phenomenon. This hybrid review is complemented by a thematic review and semantic network analysis on gaps and future directions of relevant studies. The results reveal that the paradigm of OTE research is directed from economic toward social thinking. This study proposes an application of socially related antecedent configurations, social theories, pragmatic methods, and various scales of study contexts as promising solutions to address the complexity and heterogeneity of OTE. The study concludes that the conceptual structure of OTE is premised on a sustainability platform, which is influenced by socio-cultural, environmental, economic, and political issues. This study provides a road map that enlightens the current state of OTE, prevailing topics, and pathways for further research.

(författare) Adventure tourist destination choice in Tanzania 2013 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 16:1, s. 63-95 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract It is said an adventure is an experience and experience is a part of expectations. Yet as adventure tourists expect unique experiences, certain ingredients of services (degree of satisfaction) affect their deeper needs to become attached to a place. Are such needs developed over time at a new destination? This paper suggests tourist behaviours and preferences towards destination choice change over time. The proposed model suggests that tourists’ expectations and motivation at early stages of planning affect satisfaction and level of perceived constraints, and these further predict place identity and dependence at the end of travel. As much as satisfaction arises from concrete services such as food and transportation services, constrained activities are expected to have a negativeconsequence on expectations and motivations. Since this paper is based on international adventure tourists, typically willing to take on calculated risks during their visits to Tanzania, we expect many of these hypothesised gaps to diminish as tourists become mature and aware of services offered at the destination. To test awareness and familiarity, we add different proxies for maturity (i.e. late stage of stay, repeat visitors and loyalty intentions) and awareness (i.e. tourists with escape motives) of services provided at the specific destination.
47.	Müller, Dieter K. (författare) The attractiveness of second home areas in Sweden : A quantitative analysis 2006 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 9:4&5, s. 335-350 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract The attractiveness of second home areas is usually measured in absolute figures. Such an approach ignores that second home areas have different potentials to attract second home buyers, because of their relative location in relation to major population centres. Hence, absolute figures represent the total distribution of the population rather than the amenity of a location. The purpose of this paper is to analyse the relative attractiveness, here expressed as relative acceptance (RA), of second home areas in Sweden, which accounts for the spatial context of the areas. The analysis is based on a comprehensive dataset containing geo-references for all second homes and second home owners in Sweden in 2001.

Eco-gastronomic heritage as a tool for destination development 2011 Ingår i: Current Issues in Tourism. - : Informa UK Limited. - 1368-3500 .- 1747-7603. ; 14:4, s. 373-386 Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract In gastronomic tourism, Slow Food has gained considerable attention. Cittáslow, a network of towns, are working with qualitative local urban development, based on similar principles as Slow Food. This article studies how destination development and destination marketing is conducted in a cittáslow context. A study was conducted in three cittáslow towns in Northern Italy. All three towns worked ambitiously in trying to raise the quality of life for the inhabitants by improving local environment, local food production projects, food related events and education. Thereby the destination specific resources and the local identity were strengthened. Tourism marketing was however only of secondary importance; there was even some scepticism towards marketing. Tourism promotion was generally weakly developed. This mirrors scepticism towards mass tourism and commercialisation. Despite this, the cittáslow concept has potential for tourism development by improved product development and increased visibility. The risks involved concern gentrification and overexploitation.

Questions of home do not take centre stage in the discipline. Of course second homes have been explored in tourism studies. However, home proper has not been a subject worthy of philosophical/theoretical deliberations, analytical or methodological debates. Strange as it may seem, the discipline is home-less.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract Indigenous peoples’ right to control representations of their own culture and heritage is unquestionable, but in the case of tourism activities other stakeholders’ understandings come into play. The nation-state is still an important organizational foundation for tourism. For the Indigenous Sámi people, who are located in four different nation-states, national destination management organizations (DMOs) have a crucial role in how their culture and traditions are represented. The current study examines the content of Visit Norway and Visit Sweden’s visual marketing of indigenous Sámi tourism products. Using content analysis to sort electronic images and related texts, categories distinguishing natural, human, and other types of relevant symbols were created. The marketing strategies of both countries reinforce the traditional connection of the Sámi people to nature and their reindeer. Visit Sweden uses a distinct notion of what we call the artification of the Sámi, where young female artists contribute to the modern image of this indigenous people. Visit Norway continues to use more stereotypical representations of the Sámi, with a focus on colourful outfits and traditional buildings. Thus, tourism marketing continues to reinforce simplified images of the indigenous populations of the Arctic and their relation to the nation-state. © 2023 The Author(s).
