ABSTRACT

This paper provides a review of research in nature-based tourism in the Nordic region, discuss it from an international viewpoint and provide an outlook for the future research agenda. To do this, we analyze the Scandinavian Journal of Hospitality and Tourism for papers focusing on nature-based tourism from 2010 to 2020, as well as 29 key textbooks representing international scholarship within the last decade. We argue there has been an increase in the number of studies looking at nature-based tourism from the supply side, especially about destination development, lifestyle entrepreneurship and the role of guides. We also notice that many research questions are raised from practical needs, while more theoretically oriented research is rather limited. The international call for new, bold theoretical outlooks, the need to reimagine and fundamentally transform human-nature relationships towards sustainability and co-existence remains relevant for the Nordic context in the future.

摘要

本文对北欧地区基于自然的旅游研究进行了综述，从国际角度对其进行了讨论，并对未来的研究议程进行了展望。为此，我们分析了《斯堪的纳维亚酒店与旅游杂志》上2010年至2020年重点研究自然旅游的论文，以及代表过去十年内国际奖学金的29本主要教科书。我们认为，从供应方看基于自然的旅游的研究数量有所增加，特别是关于目的地开发，生活方式创业和指南作用的研究。我们还注意到，许多研究问题都是从实际需求中提出的，而更注重理论的研究却非常有限。国际社会呼吁提出新的，大胆的理论观点，
