Tourism Economics and Policy

By Mohamed Amine Hamdani

Tourism is both an economic driver and a policy concern, influencing employment, infrastructure, and cultural exchange across the globe. Understanding its economic principles helps governments and businesses maximize benefits while managing challenges such as seasonality and sustainability. Tourism Economics and Policy examines how market forces, consumer behavior, and public policy intersect within the tourism industry. The book discusses demand forecasting, pricing, taxation, and economic impact assessment. It also explores government intervention, investment strategies, and global competitiveness. Blending theory with case studies, it provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of how sound economic and policy frameworks support sustainable tourism growth.
