Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With ethics fast becoming a mainstay in tourism studies and the tourism industry in general, this volume provides a timely and intensive look at the theory and practice of codes of ethics in tourism. While the book includes a broad overview of what has been done to date in tourism studies in the area of code development and implementation, it ranges much more widely to incorporate theoretical work from outside the tourism field. This interdisciplinary approach serves two essential purposes. First, it furnishes the study of tourism codes of ethics with a theoretical foundation, which up to the present has been lacking. Second, it affords tourism scholars the opportunity to investigate codes in tourism from a multiplicity of perspectives, with direct relevance to the industry at many levels.

Book excerpt: There are increasingly strident calls from many sectors of society for the tourism industry, the world’s largest industry, to adopt a more ethical approach to the way it does business. In particular there has been an emphasis placed on the need for a more ethical approach to the way the tourism industry interacts with consumers, the environment, with indigenous peoples, those in poverty, and those in destinations suffering human rights abuses. This book introduces students to the important topic of tourism ethics and illustrates how ethical principles and theory can be applied to address contemporary tourism industry issues. A critical role of the book is to highlight the ethical challenges in the tourism industry and to situate tourism ethics within wider contemporary discussions of ethics in general. Integrating theory and practice the book analyses a broad range of topical and relevant tourism ethical issues from the urgent ‘big-picture’ problems facing the industry as a whole (e.g. air travel and global warming) to more micro-scale everyday issues that may face individual tourism operators, or indeed, individual tourists. The book applies relevant ethical frameworks to each issue, addressing a range of ethical approaches to provide the reader with a firm grounding of applied ethics, from first principles. International case studies with reflective questions at the end are integrated throughout to provide readers with valuable insight into real world ethical dilemmas, encouraging critical analysis of tourism ethical issues as well as ethically determined decisions. Discussion questions and annotated further reading are included to aid further understanding. The Ethics of Tourism: Critical and Applied Perspectives is essential reading for all Tourism students globally.

Book excerpt: "Over the last years, voluntary environmental codes of conduct have come to the fore as a new and promising tool to raise awareness of environmental issues and improve behaviour and practices. They provide an interesting complement to other tools such as regulations and economic instruments. Chapter 30 of Agenda 21 encourages business and industry "to adopt and report on the implementation of codes of conduct promoting best environmental practice". Within the tourism industry they are now sufficiently numerous and widespread to warrant an interim review of their content and effectiveness. Environmental codes of conduct for tourism is a technical report based on the results of a survey and analysis of existing codes developed by countries, industry associations and NGOs. It offers not only examples of environmental codes for the tourism industry, for host communities and for tourists, but also essential elements common to successful codes and some of the most common pitfalls; implementation and monitoring tools and programmes currently in use to activate codes and monitor and report on performance; references and useful addresses."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing upon a variety of important philosophical traditions, this book develops an original perspective on the relations between ethical, economic and aesthetic values in a tourism context. It considers the ethical/political issues arising in many areas of tourism development, including: the profound cultural and environmental impacts on tourist destinations the reciprocity (or lack of) in host-guest relations the (un)fair distribution of benefits and revenues the moral implications of issues such as sex tourism, staged authenticity and travel to oppressive regimes. The book concludes with a detailed investigation of the potential and pitfalls of ecotourism, sustainable tourism and community-based tourism, as examples of what is sometimes termed 'ethical tourism.' Until now, the ethical issues that surround tourism development have received little academic attention. Explaining philosophical arguments without the use of excessive jargon, this fascinating book interweaves theory and practice, aided by the use of text boxes to explain key terms in ethics, politics, and tourism development, and drawing on contemporary case studies from South Africa, Mexico, Zambia, Honduras, Ethiopia and Madagascar.

Book excerpt: This book offers the evidence-based insights into the ethical considerations surrounding disruptive technologies. In the rapidly evolving landscape of technology, where breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, big data, the Internet of Things, and bioinformatics have revolutionized our world, a critical need arises to reassess our ethical frameworks. This need has given birth to the thriving field of technology ethics, or tech ethics, which has grown exponentially in recent years. Once a niche area of research, it now encompasses a multitude of technology experts dedicated to understanding the societal impact of these advancements and striving for the development of more ethically grounded technology. At the forefront of this movement stands the International Conference on Disruptive Technologies, Tech Ethics, and Artificial Intelligence (DITTET 2023). Serving as a paramount platform for scholars, professionals, and experts, this conference presents an unparalleled opportunity to explore the latest scientific and technical progress and its profound ethical implications. DITTET facilitates the exchange of cutting-edge research on disruptive technologies, fostering knowledge transfer and collaboration among interdisciplinary fields. DITTET 2023 aspires to bring together a diverse range of industry leaders, humanists, and academics, providing a comprehensive overview of the scientific advancements and applications of artificial intelligence while examining their ethical dimensions in areas such as climate change, politics, economy, and security. By delving into these crucial topics, the conference aims to unravel the intricate relationship between technology and ethics, paving the way for responsible and conscientious innovation in today's world.
