“…In general, studies can relate to: a) general issues and trends (for example, Cró et al, 2020;Kordić et al, 2019); b) the situation in the EU (for example, Gheorghe, 2020;Vakhitova et al, 2022); c) the situation in particular EU member states (for example, Choe and Lugosi, 2022;Norio, 2021;Paliska et al, 2020). One can agree with the conclusion that crime and tourism are mutually dependent (Recher and Rubil, 2020;Zhang and Xiang, 2021). However, we believe that the globality of the European tourist market shifts the focus to the general European trends in the development of the criminal situation in this area.…”

Tourism is the largest service industry in the world. The direct and reverse relationship between crime and tourism significantly affects the economy, society and individuals. Studying this impact is necessary for the state policy making and the organization of law enforcement agencies. The aim of this study was to determine the specifics of the criminal situation in the hospitality and tourism in the EU. The research involved system approach, descriptive analysis, systematic sampling, doctrinal approach, statistical analysis and forecasting as research methods. The results of specialized studies were summarized, and the lack of a comprehensive background for effective law enforcement was revealed. The main trends of the European tourism industry were identified. General European trends regarding the impact of crime on the tourism industry were revealed: a positive correlation of the security index with terrorist attacks; the relationship between the statistical significance of migration processes and the peculiarities of human trafficking in particular EU countries. The theoretical and practical problems of imperfect statistics on tourism-related crimes were confirmed. An approach to the preventive policy principles in the tourism industry was presented. The impact of crime on the hospitality and tourism is a multidimensional problem that requires the development of special preventive policies. The prospects for improving crime prevention in the tourism sector are related to the improvement of the practice of registering crimes and attracting additional opportunities for the public and subjects of the tourism industry. Prospects for further research include identifying the relationship between crime and various types of tourism.

“…To a certain extent, this aggravates the contradiction between land supply and land use and raises land transfer and housing price (Liu, 2013: p33;Tsui et al, 2016). On the demand side, tourism is a comprehensive industry closely related to agriculture, manufacturing, finance, transport and retail trade (Rosalina et al, 2015;Zhang and Xiang, 2022). The growth of the tourism sector leads to an increase in the number of tourists, which in turn stimulates the development of various industries such as accommodation, food and beverage, transportation and retail.…”

“…Second, the predominant focus of extant literature revolves around the effects of tourism development on housing price, with little attention given to the reciprocal effect. This study is a ground-breaking work to investigate the tourism-housing price nexus in China, the world's largest tourism market (Zhang and Xiang, 2022). As heterogeneous characteristics vary across cities in China, it is necessary to conduct case-by-case analyses at the city level.…”

This study underscores the significance of the nexus between tourism and housing price. Using panel data from 35 major cities in China, it employed the panel smooth transition regression approach to explore the interplay between tourism development and housing prices. Our findings showed a nonlinear tourism–housing price nexus. Specifically, tourism development can raise housing prices in a nonlinear way, indicating that this positive impact varies at different levels of tourism specialisation. Housing prices had an inverted U-shaped effect on tourism development. Several explanations for these empirical results are provided in the Discussion section, along with policy suggestions.

“…The results found that tourism can create good opportunities for criminals to commit crimes against people in tourist destinations. On the contrary, other studies view that tourism dependent on criminal activity, typology of crimes, and socioeconomic factors (Bassil et al, 2019;Fourie et al, 2020;Pappa et al, 2023;Zhang & Xiang, 2022). Several authors proved that crime and terror are related to the decline in the rate of tourist arrival, tourist activities, and tourism support among the community (Akamavi et al, 2023;Awan et al, 2023;Beha, 2023;Buigut et al, 2022;Fauzel & Seetanah, 2023;Lee et al, 2018;Polyzos et al, 2023;Raifu et al, 2022;Zaida & Attiab, 2023).…”

The focus of the study is on types of crime and their relationship with tourism destinations and tourism support among northern tourist areas. The main objective of the study was to shed light on the types of crime and their association with tourism destinations and tourism support with the framework of the social control theoretical model (inner and outer control). Face-to-face quantitative data was collected from (n=501) respondents. The study analyzed data with partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM version 4). The path analysis showed that crimes against persons, property, and victimless crime significantly decreased tourism support. A similar phenomenon, such as crimes against person and property, decreased tourism destinations, and victimless crime was insignificant. Based on the study’s findings, the results concluded that types of crime have made unsuccessful tourism support and tourism destination in the northern region. The study put forward recommendations to policymakers that criminal activities should be controlled through crime control systems among different tourist destinations in northern areas.
