The aim of the volume is to interpret active, eco- and regenerative tourism not merely as product categories, but as systemic responses to the current social, environmental and economic challenges of tourism. The studies examine the transformation of tourism through a multidisciplinary approach, linking theoretical frameworks with domestic and international best practices, with particular attention to issues of sustainability, resilience and regenerative perspectives.
The book is published as part of the Tourism and Mobility book series.
