Multi-level evolutionary model for smart tourism transition
The transition from traditional to smart tourism destinations requires structured theoretical models that can capture the complexity of stakeholder engagement and behavioural change. This study introduced and empirically tested the multi-level evolutionary model, which conceptualizes smart tourism development as a sequential process across four stages: knowledge, awareness, commitment, and action. The proposed framework was then validated based o…
The detection of focal points of tourism overcrowding in European cities. A multi-scale perspective
Overcrowding has become a common problem in European cities. The study of spatiotemporal behaviour with advances in tracking technology and big data offers possibilities for managing excessive tourism in urban destinations. However, there is a shortage of theoretical and methodological models that address this issue. The main objective of this study is to create a theoretical-methodological framework based on core-periphery theories, time geograp…

The sustainable management of overtourism via user content
Progress and stakes in sustainable tourism
The paper is based on territorial intelligence (TI) and its application to the sustainability of tourist destinations. The TI focus is viewed as being suited to dealing with the problems of tourist destinations, as well as the integrating nature of different aspects of their reality.The aim of this research is to design a System of Smart Coastal Destination Indicators (SD-Coast) that allows the level achieved by a destination to be measured and a…
A literature review on overtourism to guide the transition to responsible tourism
Although the pre-pandemic tourism debate was led by Overtourism, when the pandemic erupted, the increasing literature on this topic was still in an initial stage. The mobility restrictions derived from Covid-19 stopped Overtourism, but the problem is still far from being eradicated. There is an increasingly need for a solid body of knowledge on which to build recovery to avoid making past mistakes. A comprehensive pre-pandemic literature review i…
The Role of the Web and Social Media in the Tourism Promotion of a World Heritage Site. The Case of the Alcazar of Seville (Spain)
The information and communication technologies have revolutionized tourism and the promotion of cultural attractions. They constitute a tool with which to enhance the cultural heritage and economy of a territory in the context of tourism innovation. The article aims to analyze the potential of the website and social media of the Alcazar of Seville—declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO—in promoting tourism. The quality of this official website …
Territorial intelligence in rural areas
Especialización turística en destinos emergentes latinoamericanos
El notorio crecimiento del turismo en los destinos emergentes genera controversia con respecto a los beneficios socioeconmicos que reporta a la poblacin. Los objetivos de este trabajo son contrastar la capacidad del fenmeno turstico para convertirse en un conductor del desarrollo socioeconmico en los destinos emergentes latinoamericanos y analizar el efecto de la especializacin turstica sobre las condiciones de vida de la poblacin. Para ello, se …
The Phenomenon of Tourism Poverty Trap
Emerging destinations develop tourism activity as an increasingly widespread strategy to boost economic prosperity among the population. The main objective of this work is to analyze the effect that tourism has on the living conditions of the population affected by multidimensional poverty and to indicate the possible causes associated with tourism on this situation. Methodology consists of a cross-sectional data analysis based on two simple line…
Where is the humour in tourism promotion? An investigation of the “Spain Marks” campaign
This paper discusses humour and tourism, with a focus on “Spain Marks”, an international campaign used to promote Spain as a tourism destination. The importance of this relationship suggests that the use of humour in marketing works as an engagement and loyalty strategy, as well to portray the uniqueness of a destination. The “Spain Marks” campaign was innovative in its use of humour because it offered a fresh and a contemporary image of Spain as…
Tourism, smallness and insularity
As Small Island Developing States (SIDS) turn into a focus of attention for tourists and foreign investment, tourism becomes one of the primary sources of wealth in these economies. This increasing relevance of tourism in SIDS in turn becomes an opportunity not only to enhance the residents' quality of life but also to combat the existing vulnerabilities of SIDS. The main goal of this research is to measure the effects of tourism on the quality o…
The Value of Trust
Working with indicators
As is the case to date with respect to sustainability indicators, there is an enormous quantity of information available about their basic components (social, economic and environmental), but these are generally dealt with in a sectoral and fragmented manner, and the components have been analysed and approached in a more or less independent fashion. On the other hand, it is difficult to find indicators that encompass all the dimensions of sustain…
