Special Issue:Tourism in Sub-Saharan Africa: Consumption-Production Nexus

摘要

This special edition of Current Issues in Tourism (CIT) invites papers on Sub-Saharan African tourism, with a specific focus on the relationships between tourism consumption and tourism production in the region. As used here, 'tourism consumption' refers to a demand-led phenomenon usually associated with developed tourist-generating countries (e.g., France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, etc). The demand determinants include economic factors (e.g. sufficient disposable income, price level, etc) and non-economic considerations (e.g. leisure-time availability, image, etc). These factors are exogenous (i.e. external) to the tourist host country, and it has no control over them.
