Description

This edited volume discusses the role of sport tourism in local sustainable development in small island territories. Using an international, comparative study, this volume explores the contributions of sport tourism to sustainable development in island settings. Written by 25 research teams across ten seas, oceans, and island archipelagos, chapters present comparative findings with the view of assisting stakeholders and decision-makers in collaboratively and responsibly developing island territories in accordance with specific sustainable development goals. Presenting a refined comparative methodology at the intersection of sport tourism and sustainable development, this book is geared towards academic researchers and students interested in sport tourism, sports economics, management and sustainable development, as well as professionals.
