A chapter in Corporate Governance for Climate Transition, 2023, pp 51-80 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, we will try to bring together concepts and principles of governance for corporations, tourism, and climate transition, with a focus on urban contexts. First, governance in tourism will be introduced in general and subsequently related to main stakeholder clusters and their dynamics and biases. Second, we will briefly discuss the conceptual shift from sustainability to sustainable tourism, detailing how tourism is part of sustainable development and relates to corporate sustainability as well as highlighting some links between urban development and climate change from a tourism perspective. Third, we exemplify some concepts that are influential on an international level in the further development of urban tourism like ‘post-smart cities’ and ‘wise cities’. Based on these analyses and examples, we will examine normative aspects of governance structures and principles that we will use as a foundation to put forward some policy recommendations for the future development of governance in tourism to mitigate the negative impacts of climate transition and generate and capture value for relevant stakeholders as part of a sustainable development.
