“…Review papers in tourism research focus either on broad trends in tourism research (Ballantyne et al, 2009;Xiao & Smith, 2006) or focus on specific topics, such as, for example, second-home tourism (Hall, 2014), proximity tourism (Salmela et al, 2021) and circular economy in tourism (Renfors, 2022). These reviews have been conducted using scientific database searches and the analysis of identified tourism journals.…”

This paper represents a scoping review of angling tourism. Using the Google Scholar search engine and Scopus search, the paper reviews 98 journal articles on angling tourism in terms of year of publication, geographic locations of case studies, disciplinary foci, scientific fields and research themes. Studies on angling tourism focus on different facets of this tourism activity and comprise three major research themes: Angling tourism management, General angling tourism and Impacts both of and on angling tourism. This review shows that tourism studies and journals on tourism management/geography have, by and large, ignored angling tourism as a tourism activity across the globe, despite its significant contribution to the tourism economy. Future research on angling tourism development requires broadening the geographical scope of studies, understanding anglers as tourists with subsequent research from tourism studies perspectives, acquiring and mining of quality data for sustainable site-specific tourism offerings as well as focusing on the issues of global environmental change for implementing effective management and adaptation mechanisms. Significantly more studies are required to understand this tourism activity fully. The review supports the use of Google Scholar search as a reliable tool for accessing scientific publications.

“…Vastuullisuuden kehittämistä yrityskontekstissa on tutkittu esimerkiksi oppimisen ja viestinnän näkökulmista (García-Rosell, 2016;Halminen & García-Rosell, 2022;Pasanen, ym., 2023). Yksittäisiä avauksia on löydettävissä avaruusmatkailuliiketoiminnan vastuullisesta kehittämisestä (Toivonen, 2022) tai kiertotalouden tutkimuksesta matkailun kontekstissa (Renfors, 2022).…”

Tässä katsausartikkelissa Lapin yliopiston matkailututkijat tarkastelevat teemoja, joiden voidaan katsoa sijoittuvan suomalaisen kriittisen yhteiskuntatieteellisen matkailututkimuksen keskiöön. Uuden työn, matkailun vastuullisen talouden, hitauden ja läheisyyden, monilajisuuden, osallisuuden ja kulttuurisensitiivisyyden teemojen kautta on viime vuosina rakennettu aktiivisesti tutkimusta, jota voisi kuvailla Matkailututkimuksen pohjoista koulukuntaa (Nordic School of Tourism Research) edustavaksi tutkimukseksi – tutkimukseksi, joka pyrkii muun muassa purkamaan vastakkainasetteluita (kuten me ja toiset, luonto ja kulttuuri) ja ottaa aktiivisesti kantaa siihen, millaisia matkailun maailmoja tutkijat ovat tutkimuksen kautta luomassa. Kriittinen yhteiskuntatieteellinen tutkimusote näkyy käsillä olevan katsauksen teemoissa myös siinä, että useampi teemoista tuo esiin myös muiden kuin ihmistoimijoiden roolin yhteiskuntatieteellisiä kysymyksiä käsiteltäessä.

“…Kaszás et al [62] proposed that CE would apply to tourism due to its economic development with a focus on nature conservation. The application of CE also had extensive opportunities in tourism development as the tourism sector was interlinked with key industries such as agriculture, construction, supply of essential resources including water and electricity, and transportation [63]. Rodríguez, Florido, and Jacob [61] pointed out the linear economy model for its depletion of natural resources due to lack of material optimization by reusing or recycling was a primary contributor to the environmental degradation caused by the tourism industry [64].…”

“…Renfors [63] states that a circular economy provides essential tools for solving environmental problems caused by tourism, and it contributes to the well-being of individuals and communities. Circular business models in the tourism industry improve environmental performance in tourism, and simultaneously, they generate cost savings and the growth of revenue and help create local jobs.…”

Post-Smart Tourism Destinations (PSTD) need a sense-of-place approach based on uniqueness and thematic differentiation to deliver authentic and valuable experiences. Information and communication technology (ICT), digital technology adoption, sustainable development, community empowerment and local wisdom, and destination uniqueness are keywords that will be further explored in the development of tourism villages in Kenderan as the most important tourism destination development at the village level. The development of smart tourism, proof of the disruption of digital technology in the tourism sector, has become the objective of almost every tourism destination in the world today, be it an urban or rural area. Since its initial emergence, the smart concept in tourism development has evolved. In the beginning, it focused on ICT and the adoption of digital technology. Along with the pressure of the global requirement to apply sustainable development, the focus of smart tourism later included sustainability in the application of smart technology, which made smart tourism development (STD) become smart and sustainable tourism development (SSTD). The post-smart tourism concept arose because many critics suggested that destinations tend to place too much focus on technology adoption and lack attention to local wisdom, inclusivity, and local indigenous aspects of destination development. Applied research implemented mixed methods in the form of qualitative research through expert judgment and quantitative research through structural equation modeling analysis. The results of this research show that creative events for the local aspects of a tourist village, digital competence, and sustainability practice are the building blocks for a post-smart tourism village, while digital competence and sustainable practice have a significant mediating effect of locality on post-smart tourism villages. To ensure a tourism village possesses sustainable competitive advantages, the village must explore and promote its locality aspects to differentiate itself as a tourist village by identifying its valuable, rare, inimitable, and non-substitutable tourism resources. The implication of this research is that to develop wise and distinctive smart tourism destinations, tourist villages should explore their local values and resources, embed them into their basic components and core resources of tourism, and co-create, distribute, deliver, and promote them to the global market through technology adoption and global sustainability value.
