  • Rethinking the environmental Kuznets curve for tourism

    Open Access•Junwook Chi•ARTICLE•Tourism Economics•2026

    This study re-examines the tourism–environment relationship by extending the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) framework to assess whether environmental gains linked to tourism are sustained or eventually reversed. Using an IVQR approach, the analysis evaluates how tourism, economic growth, income inequality, and trade openness affect ecological footprint and carbon emissions across high-, middle-, and low-income countries. The results demonstrat…

  • Tourism development and income inequality in OECD countries

    Open Access•Junwook Chi•ARTICLE•Tourism Economics•2024

    This paper aims to investigate the dynamic effects of tourism, economic growth, urbanization, trade openness, and globalization on income inequality in OECD countries. Using the novel method of moments quantile regression (MMQR) approach, we aim to provide new perspectives on the Kuznets curve hypothesis regarding the relationship between tourism and income inequality. The results indicate that from the 0.1 to 0.8 quantiles, the linear and cubic …

  • Asymmetric own- and cross-price effects

    Junwook Chi•ARTICLE•Current Issues in Tourism•2022

    Past studies have generally assumed that tourism demand is perfectly price-reversible, and tourists respond to price increases and decreases symmetrically. This paper aims to investigate the potential asymmetric effects of tourism prices on outbound US tourism demand for Canada, Mexico, the UK, France, and Italy. Using the linear and nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach, the results show that in the long run, asymmetric respon…

  • Is there complementarity or substitutability among Hawaiian islands? Evidence from the autoregressive distributed lag approach

    Junwook Chi•ARTICLE•Current Issues in Tourism•2021

    Despite the growing importance of competitive tourism markets in Hawaii, little is known about the dynamic effects of relative and substitute prices on US tourism demand for Hawaii. This paper estimates own- and cross-price elasticities with respect to airfare and hotel room prices among Hawaiian islands (Oahu, Hawaii Island, Maui, and Kauai). Using the autoregressive distributed lag approach, the results indicate that US real income is the key s…

  • Revisiting the tourism-inequality nexus

    Junwook Chi•ARTICLE•Current Issues in Tourism•2021

    This paper investigates the tourism-inequality nexus across developed and developing economies. Using the data from 1995 through 2015, we apply a dynamic panel cointegration approach to examine the relationship among income inequality, GDP per capita, trade openness, international tourism receipts, and capital investment in the travel industry. The results show that GDP per capita has a negative impact on income inequality in developed countries,…
