Sustainable Dark Tourism cover

This book critically examines an increasingly popular and unique tourism form, dark tourism and how it relates to sustainability, ethics, and cultural heritage.

By doing so it explores the effects of dark tourism and associated historical background on local people, landscapes, and economies, emphasizing both positive and negative outcomes. It’s also provides us the insightfulness to analyse successful sustainable dark tourism activities and regulations from various worldwide contexts, looking for transferable lessons and best practices.

This book informs sustainable dark tourism development, management that incorporates social and environmental factors and is valuable reading for postgraduate, advanced undergraduate students, researchers and academics interested in dark tourism.

"This insightful chapter offers a vital, evidence-based framework for sustainable dark tourism in the Global South. By rigorously demonstrating community engagement as the critical mediator between cultural heritage and sustainability, it provides an essential model for policymakers and practitioners in Zambia and beyond. A significant contribution to the field."
