Building Resilience—A New Way of Thinking about Sustainable Tourism


In our recent book, Reframing Sustainable Tourism, Keith Bosak lay out the idea of resilience—the capacity of a system to adapt to disturbances—as a goal of sustainable tourism to replace the notion of a Triple Bottom Line, which has dominated technical and academic discourse over the last 30 years or so. To provide some additional perspective, we will broadcast live a Google Hangout on this topic on Thursday, 14 April at 11 AM U.S. Mountain Daylight Time. You can view the Hangout live, or view it any other time at this URL:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zV_e_r-dWSw.

You can purchase the book on Amazon.com or you can go the the Springer Publisher website to purchase electronic copies of the entire book or individual chapters: http://www.springer.com/us/book/9789401772082 .
