Abstract Circular economy theory offers a business- and solution-oriented approach to environmental sustainability. However, in the context of tourism, it ignores the central role of tourists in the production of tourism experiences. This article discusses how tourists' practices may sustain the development of circular economy in tourism, applying a practice theory that emphasises changes in what tourists do rather than in tourism products and services. To determine which tourist practices might support a circular economy, we used the Delphi and future workshop methods. Our findings reveal several potential tourist practices, but also highlight inherent paradoxes within these practices, a lack of consensus about them among experts, and questions about how they may develop.

循环经济中的旅游实践

摘要 循环经济理论为环境可持续性提供了一种以业务和解决方案为导向的方法。然而，在旅游的背景下，它忽略了游客在旅游体验生产中的核心作用。本文讨论了旅游者的实践如何维持旅游循环经济的发展，运用强调改变旅游者行为而非旅游产品和服务的实践理论。为了确定哪些旅游实践可能支持循环经济，我们使用了德尔福和未来的研讨会方法。我们的研究结果揭示了几种潜在的旅游实践，但也强调了这些实践中固有的悖论，专家之间缺乏共识，以及它们如何发展的问题。
