Summary
The authors provide a research-based overview of the relationship between tourism development and environmental quality, and detail the principles and implications of sustainable tourism development. They analyze policy directions and new forms of alternative tourism, and consider the potential of land use planning and Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) systems as instruments of sustainable tourism development, outlining EIA methods including impact matrices, overlay mapping, and simulation modeling.
