Описание: Tourism, today, is one of the largest industries in the world. The industry has a great potential for growth in the new millennium. As an industry, tourism is a highly complex phenomenon, as various disciplines are involved in its study. Therefore, it becomes of paramount importance that students as also industry professionals, must not only understand, but also fine-tune their knowledge of this complex subject. Tourism Development- Principles and Practices approaches the subject of tourism from the perspective of social science. Some basic disciplines such as, history, economics, sociology and psychology, environment, accommodation and communication are discussed as these relate to the tourism development. The book, divided in two parts covers different dimensions of the subject. Part I covers dimensions such as historical, economic, organisational and international. Part II examines the service dimensions to assist professionals in understanding and managing the tourism activity. The six chapters in this part deal with planning and development, marketing and communication and key product elements like accommodation and travel organisation sector. Divided in fourteen chapters, the book systematically covers above various dimensions related to the subject of tourism. The book will be of value to both students and professionals pursuing tourism studies at colleges and training institutes affiliated to both Indian and foreign universities.

Описание:
This book helps all those involved in international tourism develop the new skills, tools and investments required to protect irreplaceable global resources from the impacts of escalating tourism demand over the next 50 years. It documents how technology and the growing global middle class are driving a travel revolution which requires a new paradigm in managing tourism destinations. Travel and tourism supply chains and business models for hotels, tour operators, cruise lines, airlines and airports are analysed and environmental management techniques are proposed for each sector. A pragmatic set of solutions are offered to support the transition to lower impact tourism development worldwide.
It recommends that decision makers assess the current and future value of natural, social, and cultural capital to guide investment in destinations and protect vital resources. Case studies illustrate why budgets to protect local destinations are consistently underestimated and offer guidance on new metrics. Innovative approaches are proposed to support the transition to green infrastructure, protect incomparable landscapes, and engage local people in the monitoring of vital indicators to protect local resources.
It provides students, professionals, and policy makers with far-reaching recommendations for new educational programs, professional expertise, financing, and legal frameworks to lower tourism's rapidly escalating carbon impacts and protect the health and well-being of local populations, ecosystems, cultures, and monuments worldwide.

Описание:
The services economy is on the rise all around the world, and services now comprise the largest share of economic activity and employment in almost every country. Yet, the services economy remains relatively understudied. This book presents the latest evidence demonstrating how technologies and globalization have transformed the services industry. Services are becoming increasingly tradable under World Trade Organization rules and regional trade agreements, and some services subsectors are also seeing rates of productivity growth comparable to that in manufacturing. At the same time, services are increasingly contributing to manufacturing success, and countries' overall economic competitiveness now hinges crucially on the availability of high-quality and affordable services inputs. Furthermore, a well-functioning services sector can accelerate human development through better access to basic needs, such as education, energy, finance, health, water, and sanitation. Services can also be a source of good jobs with fewer negative environmental and social externalities. Overall, the ongoing structural transformation toward a services economy is a unique opportunity to achieve long-term income growth, which in turn promotes sustainable development. This book offers suggestions on how to achieve this, and is thus an indispensable read for researchers and policy makers alike.
