Elgar Research Agendas outline the future of research in a given area. Leading scholars are given the space to explore their subject in provocative ways, and map out the potential directions of travel. They are relevant but also visionary.
'Müller's accessible and timely volume takes a bold step closer to keeping pace with the constantly evolving sub-discipline of tourism geographies, unafraid to challenge earlier foundations and keen to prioritise academic diversity and real-world contexts. The contributors' flair, perspective and passion comes across throughout what is arguably the ideal backdrop for shaping future research agendas in the field.'
- Julie Wilson, Open University of Catalonia, Spain
Over recent years, tourism geographies have developed into a vibrant field of research, facing increasing challenges from globalisation and environmental change. This Research Agenda presents a unique and original collection of contributions from both established and up-and-coming scholars in the field.
Encompassing both contemporary issues, and paving the way for future avenues of research, this book explores and develops research on tourism geographies. Chapters address emerging themes and apply new methodologies, allowing for intellectual and practical challenges to be tackled. With fresh global insights, this book expands on the geographic dimension of tourism work and workers, the challenges brought by changing economic atmospheres, spatial dynamics, big data and climate change to provide a thorough understanding of the field.
Ideal for graduate and post-graduate students of geography and tourism studies looking to develop thesis ideas, this Research Agenda highlights the interest and potential of tourism geographers to contribute to a geographical tradition and influence the future content of geography as a discipline.

Edited by Dieter K. Müller, Professor of Human Geography, Department of Geography, Umeå University, Sweden
A Research Agenda for Tourism Geographies brings together a global
group of tourism geography scholars presenting insightful thoughts
on many of the cutting-edge issues that our subfield of study is
attempting to address today. Together they provide a foundation for
moving tourism geography into the future.'
--lan A. Lew, Northern Arizona University, US'Dieter Müller has
successfully coordinated an international assembly of contributors
who offer insightful new perspectives on tourism geography's
evolution and future research agendas. The volume provides an
excellent resource for tourism geographers to consider the position
of their research with respect to the discipline of geography and
the interdisciplinary arena of tourism studies.'
--Alison Gill, Simon Fraser University, Canada'In a world
characterised by rapid and radical change, this book sets out an
ambitious future for a subject that will have increasing
international importance in the years to come.'
--Tim Coles, University of Exeter, UK
