<i>‘This compelling book is what critical tourism scholars have been waiting for – a volume that encapsulates justice, equity, diversity and inclusion! From the impressive range of authors to the fascinating case studies (from foreign cleaners in German hotels to Indigenous-led, rights-based tourism), there is much in these pages to stimulate thinking on transformational tourism practices.’</i>

The contributors engage with questions of power, representation, and decolonization, through diverse case studies studying multiple sites around the world and addressing such topics as mobilities, workers’ rights, gender justice, and sustainability. Through these critical reflections, this Handbook reimagines tourism as a moral, political, and practical force building greater equity, diversity, inclusion, and social justice. Advancing beyond mere representation checklists, this collection provokes radical rethinking of tourism, offering scholars, practitioners, and policymakers essential insights into shaping fairer and more inclusive tourism futures.
The Handbook of Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in Tourism is a valuable resource for scholars and students of tourism, business and management, geography, development studies, Indigenous studies, and those interested in mobilities. It is also highly beneficial for policymakers and practitioners working in the fields of tourism, EDI, accessibility and human rights.
