European Tourism Sector Development in the Context of Energy Uncertainty

The research is a novel to study the impact of energy uncertainty on international tourism receipt in 11 European countries namely Belgium, Croatia, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain and Sweden due to availability of energy uncertainty index data recently developed by Dang et al. (2023). As econometric tool, we employ a Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) framework and include obtained long-run relations in a panel Vector Error Correction model (VECM). The findings suggest that 1% increase in energy uncertainty leads to 0.08% decrease in international tourism receipt in Europe. Moreover, international tourism receipt reaches the equilibrium with the adjustment speed of 23% annually. Regarding the effect of control variables, economic development has a negative relation whereas CO2 emissions and institutional quality have a positive association with international tourism receipt. As a policy implication, enhancing renewable energy is suggested to cope with energy uncertainty consequences that might affect tourism development.

Does Tourism Development Influence the Economic Growth in Pakistan? Evidence from ARDL and Causality Approach

This study analyzes the influence of tourism development on economic growth (GDP) in the case of Pakistan's economy using the time series data covering the spanning from 1995-2022. In order to unveil reliable and robust results, a more appropriate time-series approach was applied for the current article.

Furthermore, (ARDL) bound test reveals that a long-term cointegration prevails among all analyzed variables. The Granger causality test is also utilized to check the causal relationship among the series. The long-run elasticity estimates examine a statistically significant and positive link between the sect tourism sector GDP growth in the case of Pakistan.

Halal tourism sector and tax allowance policy: a case study observed from normative problems to effective implementation

Various tax allowance policies have been established by the government to revive the Indonesian tourism sector. However, it is crucial to examine whether the tax allowance policy can enhance the tax and tourism revenue in the halal tourism sector in West Nusa Tenggara. This research aims to provide a prescription for the Tax Allowance Policy in West Nusa Tenggara by employing a normative legal study with a statute approach and conceptual approach. This research suggests that the tax allowance policy has not effectively contributed to the recovery of the halal tourism sector in West Nusa Tenggara. The factors contributing to the situation include the disharmony between policies promoting halal tourism and the provisions outlined in Article 18B, paragraph (5) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and the principles of "Bhinneka Tunggal Ika" (Unity in Diversity). In addition, this disharmonious Tourism Policy has resulted in a rise in the poverty levels in West Nusa Tenggara, thereby designating it as Indonesia’s poorest region. In practical terms, the finding of this research serves as a theoretical basis for the government to implement tax allowance policies to aid in the recovery and development of the halal tourism sector. This includes considerations for both legal substance and legal structure. For instance, in terms of substance, this guidance offers directives for local regulations, focusing on attribution and delegation, fostering equal business opportunities and benefits, as well as enabling the adaptation to challenges arising from local, national, and global changes.

‘Small-scale’ tourism versus traditional tourism: Which will be the new key to achieve the desired sustainable tourism?

The tourism sector after COVID-19 has raised different concerns that have lead to a development towards a more sustainable model of tourism. After the health crisis, the increase in environmental awareness of tourists has become evident. In this context, the great paradigm of ‘small-scale’ tourism has been developed as opposed to traditional tourism. The present work seeks to contribute to sustainable development in the Spanish tourism sector, comparing a hostel in Cantabria (considered as ‘small scale’ /religious tourism) and a hotel in Lloret de Mar (considered as a traditional tourism) one using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to verify advantages and disadvantages of both types of tourism. The functional unit (FU) used was ‘per guest night with breakfast included’. The results have revealed similar results for both establishments in all impact categories, as can be seen in its contribution to Climate Change (4.41 kg CO2 eq./FU caused by the hotel and 4.78 kg CO2 eq./FU by the hostel). The electricity consumption and the impact of the breakfast in the hostel were identified as main contributors to environmental burdens (with 76.72 % of the hotel's impact to climate change and 77.36 % for the hostel); hence, improvement opportunities envisaged were focused on these critical points. On the one hand, a biomass boiler, a solar water-heating system and a hybrid solar/biomass heating are considered a more sustainable alternatives related to electricity. Natural gas and diesel Consumption, respectively.On the other hand, oatmeal, Greek yoghurt and berries are good options for a breakfast with a reduced environmental impact. It is also important to implement responsible and green practices in order to achieve more environmentally sustainable alternative and traditional accommodations. Therefore, it can be concluded by stating that LCA is a tool capable of identifying and studying the processes with the highest environmental impact in order to find out the most sustainable form of tourism.

Implementation of social responsibility principles into the strategy of hospitality companies

The article researches the impact of sustainable development principles on the service sector, analyses the features and benefits of tourism sector development in sustainable development, and reveals the specifics of corporate ethics as an integral part of business ethics. Tourism is considered the most influential industry in the world, covering a wide range of economic activities, and therefore causes severe damage to natural systems and generates social tension. This has led to numerous attempts to adapt the main provisions and principles of sustainable development to the context of tourism. Criteria have been identified that aim to establish a form of corporate responsibility. Quality tools have been identified, aimed not only at compliance with the rules and principles but also at introducing charters, codes, and other rules of proper behaviors contained in these declarations. The necessity of introducing effective criteria, which can be defined as a tool designed to evaluate and compare potential actions from a certain point of view and which can be identified, measured, accepted, and accepted by many people, is substantiated. A comparison is made to understand the performance and efforts made by the tourism enterprise in the quality field. The specifics of building a tourism product primarily based on environmental, cultural, and social quality are determined. The algorithm for creating a sustainable tourism product as a process that requires time and investment, which are much greater than traditional activities, is investigated. The goals that should be considered, such as customer satisfaction and purchase decisions, are identified because "every choice is a rejection", and in this case, it is about finding ways to encourage demand for tourism products to those that respect the principles of sustainable development and reject those that do not meet specific standards.
