Book Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the face of international and domestic tourism and sharply focused attention on the importance of tourist health, safety and wellbeing like never before. This book offers a unique perspective on the challenges facing the world’s largest service industry to protect and care for customers in a rapidly evolving environment where borders have closed, social distancing rules apply and personal hygiene has become a key focus in everyday life. Yet tourism is a very resilient industry and history shows there is always an immediate surge toward recovery after a crisis has passed. Humans want to travel and see the world. While we appreciate that the pandemic is far from over, already there are reports of pent-up demand for travel as restrictions ease at some destinations and borders begin to open. As we move hopefully toward the recovery phase and people begin to move around for business and pleasure, this book presents the reader with key information and insights in both traditional and emerging areas of tourist health, safety and wellbeing, recognising that the world is now shaped by this pandemic, bringing change, potentially enduring benefits and lasting legacies.

Book Description

Turizmin ayrılmaz bir unsuru, bir ülkenin Seyahat ve Turizm endüstrisinin rekabet gücünü belirleyen kritik bir unsur olan, turistlerin emniyeti ve güvenliğidir. Bu nedenle, turistlerin emniyet ve güvenliği, dünyadaki tüm ülkeler için bir ulusal güvenlik meselesi olmalıdır. Turizm Polisinin sadece turistler için değil aynı zamanda turizm sektörü için de emniyet ve güvenliği sağlama, bu konuda onlara yardımcı olma ve koruma sağlama hususunda önemli olduğuna ve turizm polisinin destinasyanlar hakkında olumlu imaj oluşturmasına yardımcı olduğuna inanılmaktadır. Böylece, turizm polisliğine yapılan herhangi bir yatırımın, destinasyonların ve ülkelerin ekonomik geleceğine yatırım olacağı aşikardır. “Turizm Güvenliği İçin Turizm Polisi: Polis Teşkilatları İçin Bir Model Önerisi” adlı bu kitap, ülkeler/destinasyonlar açısından dünyanın en çok tercih edilen turizm destinasyonlarından biri olma hedefi ile turizm polisi sistemi ve turizmde emniyet ve güvenlik konularına dikkat çekmesi açısından önemlidir. Bu bağlamda bu kitap, turizm emniyeti ve güvenliğine genel bir bakış sunmakta ve farklı ülkelerdeki polis teşkilatları için bir turizm polisi modeli önermeye odaklanmaktadır. Son olarak, kitapta destinasyonlarda turizm polisinin geliştirilmesi ve iyileştirilmesi için bazı pratik öneriler öne sürülmüştür. Kitabın içeriğinin, turizm emniyeti ve güvenliği konularına daha fazla yoğunlaşan ülkeleri ve kanun koyucuları destekleyeceği ve destinasyonlara uygun turizm polisi sistemini ve turistlerin ve turizm endüstrisinin emniyet ve güvenliğini sağlamadaki etkisini daha fazla yoğunlaştırması umulmaktadır. “Herkes için Emin ve Güvenli Turizm” sloganıyla daha emniyetli ve güvenli bir turizm ortamı oluşturmak için farklı ülkelerdeki Ulusal / Yerel Yönetimler tarafından bu kitaptaki tavsiyelerin ciddi bir şekilde dikkate alınacağı ve kendi ülkelerinde turism polisi sistemi kurmada son derece faydalı olacağı içtenlikle ümit edilmektedir.

Book Description

Ethical and Responsible Tourism explains the methods and practices used to manage the environmental impact of tourism on local communities and destinations. This new edition takes into account recent global events such as the Covid-19 health crisis, the impacts of the war in Ukraine on tourism in neighbouring regions and the consequences of the energy and cost of living crisis. The three core themes of the book – destination management, environmental and social aspects of ethical sustainable development and business impacts – are discussed across both topic and case study chapters, alongside explanatory editorial analysis with all chapters clearly signposted and interlinked. The case studies address specific and practical examples from a global range of examples including sites in Australasia, Central America, Europe, Asia, North America and South America. In this new edition, further case studies are included from the USA and Japan, as well as new examples from Brazil, Croatia and Malta. Used as a core textbook, the linking of theory in the topic chapters, and practice gained through case studies, alongside further reading and editorial commentary, Ethical and Responsible Tourism provides a detailed and comprehensive learning experience. Specific case studies can be used as standalone examples as part of a case teaching approach, and the editorial and discussion elements are designed to be suitable for those simply seeking a concise overview, such as tourism professionals or potential investors in sustainable tourism projects. This revised edition continues to be essential reading for students, researchers and practitioners of tourism, environmental and sustainability studies.
