| Abstract
|
:
|
"Reflecting current trends in global tourism, this book bridges the gap between tourism policy and strategic planning and maintains a firm focus on the practical application of theory." "Tourism Policy and Planning: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow presents students, professionals, and policy-makers with a set of conceptual tools for understanding the complex factors that make up tourism policy and help ensure its growth in positive ways." "With a user friendly learning structure and divided into ten chapters, Tourism Policy and Planning: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow examines issues such as tourism as an economic and commercial activity, political and foreign policy implications, sustainable tourism, education and training, and strategic planning. It is fully illustrated throughout with international case reports to provide a solid foundation for understanding not only what tourism policy is and the benefits of well-formulated tourism policy but also how to influence and implement it."--Jacket.
