Economic Evaluation of Investments in Airports
The problem of how to evaluate investments in airports has now been studied for over 50 years. This paper analyzes the use of different methods like cost–benefit analysis (CBA), economic impact analysis (EIA), and computable general equilibrium (CGE) models to address the question. It assesses the strength and weaknesses of each method, and it discusses which methods have been used in different countries. The paper argues that the CBA approach an…

Tourism Economics and Policy
This revised edition incorporates new material on the sharing economy, AI, surface and marine transport, resident quality of life issues, the price mechanism, the economic contribution of tourism, and tourism and economic growth.

Measuring price elasticities of demand for outbound tourism using competitiveness indices
The impacts of Australia's departure tax
Is the migration-tourism relationship only about VFR
Is Australian tourism suffering Dutch Disease
Estimating the carbon footprint of Australian tourism
This paper explores the issues in estimating the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the tourism industry and related activity in Australia. The scope of tourism consists of the economic activities defined as “tourism characteristic” and “tourism connected” as defined in the Australian Tourism Satellite Account (TSA). Two approaches are employed and contrasted – a “production approach” and an “expenditure approach”. Depending on the approach, tou…
Tourism Economics and Policy
This textbook provides a comprehensive review of economic concepts and applications in tourism contexts. Topics include tourism demand and forecasting, tourism supply and pricing, measuring the impacts and benefits of changes in tourism demand, tourism investment and infrastructure, tourism and the environment and destination competitiveness
The Economics of Tourism
This new edition of The Economics of Tourism reflects the tremendous changes that have occurred in the tourism sector in the last twelve years. It recognizes that the nature of tourism demand and supply is being transformed by innovations in information communication technologies, market liberalization and climate change. Paralleling this, there is much greater interest in the study of tourism by both students and researchers in mainstream econom…
Tourism and Economic Development Three Tools of Analysis
Increasingly, developing countries are embracing international tourism as a source of economic growth. Tourism is one of the world's largest economic activities. It is the leading industry in many countries, as well as a substantial source of job creation worldwide. In recent years, three tools of analysis have become available to inform tourism policy-making by destination managers and planners: the Tourism and Travel Competitiveness Index, Tour…

Leading researchers in the field explore a wide range of topics including: demand and forecasting, supply, transport, taxation and infrastructure, evaluation and application for policy-making. Each chapter includes a discussion of its relevance and importance to the tourism economics …
Evaluating tourism's economic effects
Price competitiveness of tourism packages to Australia
One issue facing any country or region concerns its price competitiveness as a package tour destination. One method of measuring this is to use what in other contexts has been referred to as the Big Mac approach. The “Big Mac” is a simple product with ingredients in fixed proportions, whereas the tourism product is a very complex one comprising different components depending on tourist expenditure patterns. There is no equivalent tourism product …
The price competitiveness of travel and tourism
Estimating the Employment Impacts of Tourism to a Nation
The paper discusses the impact on national employment of an increase in foreign tourism expenditure. The paper will firstly review existing work, based on multiplier analysis, input-output studies and computable general equilibrium models. The deficiencies and advantages of these different approaches will be assessed. Special attention will be paid to assessing the employment impacts of tourism expenditure in a general equilibrium framework where…
Economic significance of cruise tourism
Foreign tourism investment
Assessing the benefits and costs of inbound tourism
The case for tourism promotion
Among the various factors influencing tourists to visit an overseas country is that of promotion/marketing activity by tourism operators and government tourist commissions in the destination country. The effects of tourism promotion have not previously been subjected to rigorous economic analysis however. The paper firstly shows how the standard economic justifications for government support of industry in circumstances of market failure, ie exte…
The pharmacology of extinction
It is impossible to predict what compounds of pharmacological interest may be present in an unexamined species. The extinction of such species may result, therefore, in the loss of therapeutically significant compounds. The fact that science will never know what has been lost does not lessen the significance of the loss. A number of species are discussed to exemplify the potential loss. Ginkgo biloba is an ancient plant, apparently saved from a n…
