Reframing mountain destinations from the perspective of tourist mobility
In mountain areas, tourism destination management and branding generally follow administrative boundaries, representing a loss of competitiveness in the tourism sector for theses already remote destinations, in many cases, with under-developed tourism. Increasingly, researchers are claiming to consider tourist perspectives, not only in drawing up promotion strategies, but in rethinking management structures of tourism destinations, which are trad…

Rethinking rurality in rural tourism
The concept of rurality has been widely debated among scholars, yet rarely questioned in tourism research. We argue that new approaches to rurality in rural tourism research need to be explored if a more inclusive and diverse rurality is to be found. For this purpose, three fundamental dimensions of dominant approaches to tourism rurality, particularly in the Global North, are problematized in the paper: rural as the opposite of, what is not an u…
A note on “privileged” tourism social entrepreneurs
Image and risk perceptions

Emergence of governance in cross-border destinations
Tourism destination zoning in mountain regions
This paper puts into question the conventional way of delineating tourism destination borders in terms of taken-for-granted administrative boundaries. Despite the fact that the literature on destination boundaries advocates for conceptual frameworks where customers' consumption patterns play a more fundamental role, instances of actual attempts of structuring tourism geographies into 'new tourism areas' are scant, and instances of zoning on the b…
Heritage tourism clusters along the borders of Mexico
This article seeks to find potential heritage tourism clusters in border areas. Literature about tourism destinations is essentially focused on administrative-bound areas, while little attention has been paid to functional regions. The research is based on a methodological exercise to contribute to this debate by analyzing the case of three border regions between Mexico, the USA, Guatemala and Belize, respectively. These borders have never been s…
