“…The settings are natural, educational, safe, and encourage social-responsible behavior. These attributes collectively establish quintessential ecotourism locations, aligning with the prevalent scholarly definitions and interpretations of ecotourism that have been formulated to date (Salman et al, 2022).…”

This study aims to evaluate the moderating role of social media influence before and after the trip in Vietnam and Czech Republic. Primary data, gathered during time lag data surveys conducted among international tourists travelling to the Czech Republic and Vietnam, was analyzed with the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) in R. The findings revealed that social media influence with higher level positively strengthened the connection between tourist motivation and the post trip destination image. Furthermore, social media had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between tourist satisfaction and ecotourism loyalty. However, there are strong differences between the destinations of developed and emerging economies. For Czech Republic, as developed economy, social media influence plays a more important role as a value-expressive mechanism at the post-trip stage whereas for the developing economy of Vietnam, social media plays a more important role as an information source before the trip. This study extends the Expectation Confirmation Theory (ECT) by introducing the moderating effect of social media influence, which first time measures this moderating effect before and after the trip accounting for the dynamic nature of the destination image as an antecedent of ecotourism loyalty. Limitations, theoretical implications, and recommendations for practice and further research are addressed. JEL Classification: L83, Z30, Z39

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.

“…Governments often choose ecotourism as a strategy for local economic growth (Lee, 2021), and this was the case with the Tiaozini Wetland. Ecotourism has, in some circumstances, made a significant contribution to sustainable development, but this requires careful governance, compromise, and effective stakeholder collaboration and partnerships (Wall, 1997;Song, 2005;Kuang, 2010;Todd et al, 2016;Wondirad et al, 2020;Salman et al, 2021;Salman et al, 2022). Fortunately, the Tiaozini Scenic Spot Management Company effectively involved multiple stakeholders in ecotourism.…”

Wise use of coastal wetlands: 10-year reclamation vs. 3-year eco-governance in the Tiaozini Wetland, Jiangsu, China

Coastal wetlands provide extensive ecological services for life on Earth but are facing rapid global disappearance influenced by human activities and climate change. From 1984 to 2018, approximately 28% of the natural coastal wetlands in China were lost due to seawater intrusion, reduced sediment acquisition, urbanization, and reclamation. Tiaozini wetland used to be reclaimed during 2010-2019, and quickly shifted for conservation with less than 3 years. We analyzed 3 years of top-down eco-governance and bottom-up activities in Tiaozini, one of the typical wetlands with wise use instead of reclamation. Collaboration of stakeholders, such as the management company, local residents, tourists, scientific committees, NGOs, and media, facilitated the wise use of Tiaozini wetland as a successvie way towards eco-governance, including public participation and environmental education. Adaptive management, ecosystem-based management, and natural-based solutions play very important roles in eco-governance from both bottom-up and top-down approaches. Results showed that 3-year eco-governance induced great achievements in both biodiversity conservation and ecotourism development, which outweighs the 10-year reclamation for coastal wetlands exploitation.
