Trending and Emerging
- Sustainable and Responsible Tourism:
There is an increasing emphasis on sustainable tourism practices, with research focusing on how travelers' mindfulness and social responsibility influence their behaviors. This trend highlights the growing awareness of environmental issues and the importance of ethical travel. - Impact of COVID-19 on Tourism:
The COVID-19 pandemic has catalyzed a surge in research examining its effects on the tourism sector, including changes in consumer behavior, economic recovery strategies, and adaptations in tourism management. This theme is crucial for understanding the future of tourism post-pandemic. - Digital Transformation in Tourism:
Research exploring the role of technology, especially social media and data analytics, in shaping tourist experiences and marketing strategies is on the rise. This trend reflects the ongoing digitalization of the industry and its implications for consumer engagement. - Psychological and Emotional Dimensions of Travel:

Declining or Waning
- Traditional Economic Analyses:
Although the economic impacts of tourism remain relevant, the focus on traditional economic analyses without considering broader socio-cultural factors has diminished. There is a shift towards more integrated approaches that account for the interplay between economic and non-economic factors. - Overtourism and Saturation Issues:
Research specifically centered on overtourism and its negative impacts has seen a reduction. While still pertinent, the focus has shifted towards more constructive discussions on sustainable practices and community engagement rather than solely addressing the problems of saturation. - Historical Tourism Studies:
The exploration of historical tourism as a standalone topic appears to be waning. While historical contexts are still valuable, there is a growing preference for studies that connect historical elements to contemporary tourism practices and experiences.
