Coastal areas underwent a radical transformation during the twentieth century related to the beach tourism industry. The development of beach tourism in Italy had a significant impact on the gradual transformation of the coastal landscape from elitist to mass tourism between the 1950s and 1960s, leading over time to the recognition of the coast as a major economic driver.

The relationship between culture and tourism has been increasingly pivotal in shaping urban development and academic discussion within tourism literature (Richards, 2018). The โBilbao Effectโ triggered and amplified a segment of this growing debate specifically focusing on art and tourism (Franklin, 2018) and consolidated a โubiquitous narrative among urban decision makersโ (Ponzini, 2010)....

More audiences, especially celebrity fans, now travel to other cities for an event. This type of tourism, tied to specific events or media content, is not a new phenomenon. As early as the 1980s, the influence of films and TV dramas on...

The 1970s saw a significant increase in visitors to historical sites, leading to problems in managing these sites and the development of concepts in tourism and urban literature, such as โtourism carrying capacityโ (Kuss and Morgan, 1980), โtolerance modelโ (Doxey, 1975), and โtourist perspectiveโ (Urry, 1990).

A daily read of any reliable news source demonstrates that adaptation measures to confront climate impacts are inadequate, if existent. In parallel, climate change adaptation in the planning literature has mainly focused on policy reforms and infrastructure...
