Thoughts on core–periphery and small island tourism
It is difficult to write a post-publication piece about a paper without falling into the trap of conducting a post-publication review of the paper, an action which could be construed as unfair and inappropriate, given the fact that the paper in question has already been reviewed, revised (presumably) and found acceptable for publication by anonymous reviewers and the journal editor.
