SPECIAL ISSUE ON CULTURE AND TOURISM IN CHINA
International Journal of Culture, Tourism and Hospitality Research
Objective. This special issue of International Journal of Culture, Tourism and Hospitality Research (IJCTHR) will be devoted to research on culture and tourism in China. All China-relevant culture and tourism-related topics are welcome. The 21st Century witnesses China’s arrival as Asia’s economic leader and, along with the U.S. and E.U., one of the three global economic leaders. Tourism forecasts include China becoming both the number 1 tourism importer and exporter before 2012. This IJCTHR China Special Issue is to serve as an invaluable source of cultural and tourism knowledge/insight relating to China. This special issue of IJCTHR will be published in 2008. May 15, 2007 is the deadline for submissions.
Editorial scope. The International Journal of Culture, Tourism and Hospitality Research focuses on building bridges in theory, research, and practice across the fields of culture, tourism, and hospitality. The journal has an interdisciplinary mission to replace silo-thinking research paradigms. International in scope and grounded in theory-into-practice, the journal provides breadth, depth, provocation and passion in reporting the nuances of humans’ lived experiences relating to culture, tourism and hospitality. Co-Editors of the special issue: Peter W. Cardon, College of Hospitality, Retail, and Sport Management, University of South Carolina (petercardon@gmail.com) and Lixin Cui, Beijing Institute of Technology/University of South Carolina (lixin.cui@gmail.com).
