This particular book on tourism planning seeks
to outline a broad approach to the problem of
tourism planning that attempts to encourage the
reader to conceptualise the highly complex arena
within which tourism planning and policy oper-
ates. It stresses that conceptualisation and the
analysis and application of planning tools need
to go hand in hand. It also stresses that planning
is difficult – it is irrational, complex, political,
value laden and, often, frustratingly incomplete.
Moreover, by stressing the search for sustainabil-
ity as the vision for tourism planning it perhaps
becomes even more difficult, yet maybe all the
more important given the present state of the
world and tourism.
