Synopsis
This significant volume critically explores the implications of tourism safety and security and how communities in tourism destinations try to be resilient in the face of these impacts.Written by leading scholars, this book offers new insight into the conceptual and practical knowledge of community resilience due to tourism security and safety issues. Chapters examine these topics through an integrated community perspective to provide comprehensive consideration of the interconnected facets of a community, encompassing social, economic, environmental and cultural dimensions when evaluating and addressing matters pertaining to tourism management, safety, security and resilience. This book is structured around different conceptual, theoretical and practical strategies employed by destinations to foster and sustain community resilience, particularly during periods of crises, as well as communities in the context of tourism recovery. It examines this across geographical borders and in many different contexts (not just locations) of tourism or types of tourism, such as religious tourism, and different types of crises, including natural disasters, pandemics and terrorism.This book is an essential reading for all tourism students, researchers and academics as well as for those interested in conflict and crises recovery.
