Without adequate research and management, the potential impacts and benefits of tourism and travel services will not be maximized. In this volume, tourism scholars Metin Kozak and Seyhmus Baloglu evaluate the theoretical approaches and applications to competitive advantage within tourist destinations and demonstrate the ways to further develop the concept of destination competitiveness for application within tourist destinations. Kozak and Baloglu highlight the need for collaboration between the representatives of both the public and private sectors to adequately manage the growth and issues relevant within international tourism, marketing, management and competitiveness. This book will be indispensable to students and scholars of tourism, hospitality, and leisure and recreation programs, as well as practitioners within these industries.
