Description
The Tourism Area Life Cycle Review, Relevance and Revision by Richard Butler provides an overview of one of the most cited articles in tourism literature. First published over 40 years ago, the model has been widely applied and discussed, with its strengths and weaknesses being subject to elaboration, modification, and criticism. This book brings together senior academics and younger scholars who have used and modified the Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) model in their research. The authors examine the model's relevance in the 21st century, particularly in addressing issues such as overtourism and disasters like the Covid-19 pandemic. A new version of the model is also presented. The book offers a final assessment of the TALC model's contribution to tourism literature and its continued importance in understanding the complex dynamics of tourist destinations.
