To celebrate ten years of the Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure and Events, a special supplement, currently available free of charge, has been published where authors of six of the most highly cited and/or most downloaded articles, consider advances in research since they first published their work. Each of these makes for stimulating reading and may also be valuable for teaching purposes:
- Sport participation, international sports events and the ‘trickle-down effect’ - A. J. Veal, Kristine Toohey & Stephen Frawley
- A comment on: arts festivals, urban tourism and cultural policy - Bernadette Quinn
- Transformative collaboration: knocking down taboos, challenging normative associations -Maria Jose Zapata Campos & C. Michael Hall
- Shifting the paradigm: a theory of change model - Donald Getz
- Embracing the event portfolio paradigm in academic discourse and scholarship - Vassilios Ziakas
- Reflections on major sport event volunteer legacy research - Alison Doherty & Swarali Patil
The following special issues were published last year:
- Social Tourism at the Crossroads - Guest Editors: Anya Diekmann, Scott McCabe and Carlos Cardoso Ferreira
- Equality and Diversity in the Professional Planned Events Industry - Guest Editors: Louise Platt and Rebecca Finkel
There are also forthcoming special issues on their way in the following areas: Tourism policy in the Asia Pacific, Outbound Chinese tourism, Employment of temporary migrants and Non-Nationals in the Hospitality Industry and Tourism and the Night.
