“…This was followed by questions on the financial performance of the enterprise, using as proxies the number of months in high season, the average prices in low and high seasons (Logar, 2010), the financial situation of the establishment and the managers level of satisfaction with the current financial situation (Alvarez Gil et al, 2001;Carmona-Moreno et al, 2004;Claver-Cortés, Molina-Azorín, Pereira-Moliner, & López-Gamero, 2007;Inoue & Lee, 2010;Kang et al, 2010;Lee & Park, 2009;Nicolau, 2008;Rodríguez & Armas, 2007).

Corporate social responsibility practices have been mostly analyzed in the large manufacturing business context, with little attention paid to the service sector and even less to small and medium-sized tourism enterprises. This study aims to fill this gap through analyzing how these enterprises take responsibility. A survey of nearly 400 enterprises showed that the main reason for acting responsibly is altruistic, arising from the managers and owners' values and lifestyle. Sustainability measures have a positive impact on the financial performance and vice versa. The resource-based view of the enterprise is validated through the impact of environmental cost-savings in financial performance, although other advanced social and economic sustainable actions also benefit financial wealth. Finally we conclude that further implementation of these practices is necessary to achieve new competitive advantages, and that the role of public administrations will be crucial to support and encourage these.

“…The consultation and involvement of local stakeholders in strategies development definitions contribute to highlighting new perspectives about the local situation and to ensuring that all the priorities of different actors and their opinions about possible measures of intervention are considered in the evaluation of scenarios and the definition of a strategy for local development (Logar, 2010;Stagl, 2006;Tosun, 2000). For instance, Castellani and Sala (2010) in a study proved that the European Charter procedure meets the necessity of widening the concept of participation, from pure consultation to the active involvement of local stakeholders, both in the planning process and in the implementation process; it can help to make an overall evaluation of environmental, social and economic contexts of the area, whilst also considering the perception of the local community.…”

This paper aims to study the progress of research on Sustainable Tourism and to outline and identify the key disciplines, journals, articles and authors. This is carried out through a wide, in-depth, and structured examination of published scholarly papers. In recent decades, sustainable tourism has been one of the most significant subjects among academics and practitioners. In this paper, a classification scheme and a comprehensive literature review are presented in order to clarify, categorise, and interpret the current research on sustainable tourism definitions and applications. The classification scheme for this review contains 132 scholarly papers from 47 journals since the year 1993 up to 2013 categorised into 14 application areas. The five major topics are Paradigm, Sustainable Tourism Development, Market research and Economic, Policy-making, and Infrastructure. The scholarly papers are also sorted by (we suggest using the exact order used later in the paper) (1) year of publication; (2) publication journal; (3) subject area citations. It is hoped that this paper provides the needs of researchers and practitioners with easy references for sustainable tourism and its definitions and applications, and also presents future research opportunities.
