“…In these first attempts to create new forms of tourism, related to specific environmental or cultural resources of a given local area, the sustainability paradigm was mainly used as a marketing ploy or as a weak source of differentiation (Lodkipanidze, Brezet, & Backman, 2003). Instead, Other authors highlight how using tourism-related activities to sustain development in a given area, especially in the case of protected ecosystems and the less regulated areas in developing countries, could also present a risk (Rasoolimanesh & Jaafar, 2017;Basu, 2017). This risk is more actual the more successful these initiatives have in attracting tourists in the new market niches driving them against the very same goals they were trying to accomplish (Wheeler, 1993).…”

Especially in recent years, the attention to sustainability is even more felt in the tourism sector where the consequences of indiscriminate behavior in the exploitation of resources on the environment, on human beings and on their economic activities have become increasingly evident (Jaremen, Nawrocka, & Żemła, 2019). Tourism is often considered as a source of natural and cultural resources’ exploitation, but it also contributes to GHG emissions, being one of the main reasons that pushes the world population to move. On the other hand, tourism-related activities, when correctly designed, can be a strong source of sustainable development. Indeed, tourism products should be sustainable as they depend on local area resources: they are complex products which, on the one hand, should use local resources as a differentiation strategy, on the other hand, hey should factor in the needs of several territory’s stakeholders. Researchers and institutions have developed many tools to assess tourism environmental impacts focusing both on the local area as a whole or on a given product. For the tourism sector, social and environmental impacts, responses and indicators fall into five categories (Buckley, 2012): population, peace, prosperity, pollution and protection. Moreover, these tools and measures have not been able to increase sustainability of tourism products and the industry is not yet close to sustainability. In this chapter, we proposed an approach, built around Elkington’s three pillars model (1994), to assess sustainability (Lehtonen, 2004) of tourism products; we focus on products design processes to create a model that help entrepreneurs in assessing if their products are sustainable and where they are their main weaknesses. In order to show how such a simple model can be used to evaluate sustainable tourism initiatives and highlight their weaknesses we have used a multiple case studies approach and we have analyzed three different cases.

“…To understand sustainable tourism marketing, destination-related conceptualizations carry a great importance. Sustainable tourism development and marketing are mentioned by some as bringing a competitive advantage to a destination (Kiral'ova 2019; Hassan 2000), while it is regarded by some others as the role of governmental function of the host communities to control the negative impacts of tourism (Basu 2017). Opposing to the "traditional concept" and "systemic approach" to the destination, the most recent destination concept is suggested as "smart destination" with the adoption of ICT and adaptation of digitalization which involves "interweaving of digital and real realms, public-privateconsumer collaboration, participatory governance, creative and knowledgeable people, value co-creation, personalized services" (Jovicic 2019, p. 280).…”

If we leave environmental protection to environmentalists, marketing products to marketers and social equity to activists groups, the system will be separated, and common objectives are hard to achieve. Sustainable marketing has sustainability as its underlying objective. This includes a quality of life instead of standard of living. A sustainable approach provides a macro-holistic view of marketing and integrates economic viability, social equity and environmental responsibilities towards the desire to achieve livable and living communities" (Jamrozy 2007, p. 125).

“…Tourism has become one of the world's major economic success that has embraces nearly all aspects of our society. It is widely acknowledged as one of the fastest growing industry globally (Newsome et al, 2002;Basu, 2003). Tourism Management System is a web based system because it is clear that the web, unconstrained by geographical boundaries is more efficient vehicle and paves way to work on truly global scale.…”
