Topical and issue based, and arranged by type of crisis showcasing a wide range of examples and case studies, Beirman approaches the topic both as an academic and with a professional insight gleaned from his vast experience in industry.
As global tourism faces its greatest threat since World War II, the author draws on over 40 years of industry and academic experience to explore the core themes that underpin crises, their impact on the tourism industry and recovery.
Focussing on this emerging issue in within the travel industry and academic tourism research, this author explores crisis management approaches from scholars, governments and tourism associations around the world. A dedicated chapter also covers the impact of Covid-19 on tourism industries and economies across the world and well as how nations from around the world responded to the global pandemic outbreak.
The book is split by theme and features over 20 case studies, including 2020 Australian bush fires, 2019 Sri Lankan terror attack, SARS and Swine Flu, the collapse of Thomas Cook, the global and Greek financial crises and the threat to the Great Barrier Reef.
Discussion questions and activities are included at the end of each chapter.
Suitable reading for students on tourism and tourism crisis management modules.
