“…In the sustainable development cluster, studies have explored sustainability in the agricultural industry(Fito & van Hulle, 2021 ; Medina et al, 2021 ; Pandey & Diwan, 2021 ; Singh & Misra, 2021 ; Yasmeen et al, 2022 ) as well as in tourism (Aygün Oğur & Baycan, 2022 ; Mohamadi et al, 2022 ; Xu et al, 2022 ). Other studies have focused on land use management (Surata et al, 2022 ; Yu, 2021 ; Zhou et al, 2022 ), energy consumption (Petrović, 2023 ; Saeed et al, 2022 ), economic growth (Refah-Kahriz et al, 2022 ), and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on sustainable development (Bar, 2021 ; Shammi et al, 2021 ; Zyoud, 2022 ).…”

“…Sachin & Rajesh ( 2022 ) analyzed the association between sustainable supply chain practices and the financial performance of Indian manufacturing companies. Aygün Oğur & Baycan ( 2022 ), Mohamadi et al ( 2022 ), and Simo-Kengne ( 2022 ) examined sustainability practices in the tourism industry, while Xu et al ( 2022 ) compared corporate sustainable growth between the tourism and agriculture industries. It would be interesting to explore sustainability efforts in various industries.…”

This study aims to highlight the current trends in the literature on sustainability by applying a bibliometric review of papers on sustainability published in Environment, Development and Sustainability . Bibliometric analysis is a quantitative approach to bibliographic materials that highlights the core theoretical and empirical research on a specific field. In addition, it allows the classification of previous studies. Previous bibliometric reviewers were limited to sustainability papers in specific industries, while this study considers all papers on sustainability to provide further insights on overall sustainability topics. The analysis was based on keyword cartography analysis, bibliometric authors’ citation analysis, bibliometric papers’ citation analysis, bibliometric references’ co-citation analysis, journals’ co-citation cartography, and qualitative content analysis. A total of 997 articles on sustainability were reviewed. Bibliometric analysis was performed using VOSviewer and content analysis was performed using WordStat. Six major clusters were identified: environmental sustainability, sustainable development, urban sustainability, ecological footprint, environment, and climate change. In addition, the results reveal that Environment, Development and Sustainability has increasingly experienced important growth in research papers and citations, reflecting its significant contribution to the sustainability research field. In addition, this study presents recommendations for future research opportunities in the field of sustainability. The findings of this study have implications for sustainability research, such as the assessment of environmental and social sustainability in multinational institutional contexts and across industries as well as the examination of the impact of environmental and social sustainability on different corporate aspects and decisions. This study is the only one to review the key topics on which papers published in Environment, Development and Sustainability are focused and can be largely used for sustainability practices. This study provides an overview of how the literature on sustainability has developed, as well as a summary of the most productive authors, along with countries, organizations, and journal sources. This offers an opportunity for future research to focus on this topic.

“…Corresponding to the acknowledged confusion about responsible and sustainable tourism in research, a high proportion of conceptual studies was carried out in an attempt to define and distinguish the two conceptions (i.e. Gao et al, 2021; Mihalic, 2016; Mihalic et al, 2021; Mohamadi et al, 2022; Saarinen, 2021; Volgger & Huang, 2019). The conceptual studies identified in this literature review focus in particular on the development of a sustainable-responsible tourism model (Mihalic, 2016; Mihalic et al, 2021), and highlight critical differences between sustainable and responsible tourism (Saarinen, 2021).…”

Responsible tourism studies have neglected divergent tourism actors’ contribution to sustainable tourism development via their behavior, as well as the impact of recent crises on research. Thus, a bibliometric and thematic analysis was conducted, involving an examination of 154 recent studies that were clustered around four research streams: (1) tourists’ responsible behavior; (2) residents’ responsible tourism accounts; (3) tourism businesses’ responsible actions; and (4) destination management’s role in responsible tourism, showing that responsible tourism research is predominantly focused on tourists’ responsibility. Tourism businesses and residents are less frequently investigated. Similarly, the role of destination management is only recently emerging, while governments’ contribution to responsible tourism has been neglected in research. Environmental responsibility studies dominate on the tourist and resident level, while corporate social responsibility (CSR) studies prevail on the business level. This literature review identifies research priorities in order to derive an agenda for future research.

“…To this end, we recommend a reframed UNESCO OUV-based sustainability model that distinguishes between the negative impact of tourism on the sustainability of the ecological environment (OUV) and the positive impact on economic environment. Generally, sustainable-responsible tourism (SRT) models follow the three-pillar concept (economic, sociocultural, and natural impacts) along with including strategic leadership, effective governance, and efficient implementation (Mihalič, 2016;Mohamadi et al, 2022;Ramkissoon, 2020). The suggested model follows the UNESCO WH understanding and terminology and incorporates the WH status benefits (Galland et al, 2016), since they impact the perception of QOL of residents of a WH destination; and bring the heritage sustainable management to the fore Along with insights from the sustainable tourism paradigm and tourism impacts, this research addresses the real-world problem of WH sites.…”

Tourism sustainability model for a world heritage destination: the case of residents’ perception of Ohrid

World Heritage (WH) status is anticipated to promote sustainable development by protecting the destination’s outstanding natural and cultural resources, generating economic advantages, attracting visitors, and improving the quality of life for its residents. Putting the economic advantages and values first has a critical effect on the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV), which negatively impacts the destination’s sustainability, such as quality of life. This study proposes a sustainability model based on UNESCO OUV to evaluate tourism’s role in a WH destination’s residents’ perception of quality of life. The model was tested on a WH destination Ohrid (North Macedonia). The findings revealed that tourism has a beneficial economic impact while also having a negative influence on the OUV ecological environment and residents’ perception of quality of life. The discussion takes place in UNESCO’s considerations to add Ohrid to the list of WH in Danger due to unsustainable tourism development. The findings encourage destination managers to take responsibility for the OUV resources and to take the necessary actions to improve tourism sustainability. The model can be easily adapted and applied to any WH destination.
