Aims & Scope

The Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure & Events provides a critical focus on a variety of policy debates relating to the tourism, leisure and events sectors. Such policy debates will encompass economic, social, cultural, political and environmental perspectives. The journal welcomes research on questions of policy formation and change, planning, strategy, policy instruments and implementation, and evaluation and impact assessment. Inter- and multi-disciplinary submissions would be particularly welcome.

The journal is international in orientation, and seeks high quality theoretical and empirical papers that advance knowledge in this field. Papers examining the value of contrasting methodologies, or advocacy of novel methods, will also be welcome.

Indicative themes include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • The politics of tourism, leisure and events policy
  • Leisure policy and social change
  • Strategies for sustainability
  • Social, economic and environmental impacts of festivals and events
  • National, regional and local tourism and events strategies
  • Tourism and leisure planning theory
  • Cultural policy
  • Leisure, participation and community
  • Sports policy
  • Policy analysis and evaluation
Full articles would normally be approximately 5000-6000 words with a title of not more than eight words. Contributions to the Contemporary Policy Debates section will be up to 1500 words. All articles will be subject to rigorous double-blind review, apart from the Contemporary Policy Debates which will be subject to the decision of the Editor.
