Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure and Events (JPRTLE)

Journal of Policy Research in Tourism, Leisure & Events provides a unique forum for critical discussion of public policy debates relating to the fields of tourism, leisure and events. This encompasses the economic, social, cultural, political and environmental dimensions of official intervention. In addition to high quality theoretical and empirical papers, the journal publishes contributions examining the value of contrasting methodologies, or advocacy of novel methods. Inter- and multi-disciplinary submissions are particularly welcome. We seek to improve the quality of public policy interventions in the fields of tourism, leisure and events by publishing papers that build bridges between policy and practice. Shorter contributions in the form of Policy and Practice papers may report the outcomes of evaluation studies, progress on new initiatives, findings of practice-based research, or be a discussion of the impact of academic research on policy and practice. In addition, the journal’s novel Dialogues section involves ‘point/counter-point’ debates between contributors on a range of policy-related or policy research-related topics. These may interrogate key concepts from different cultural, theoretical or spatial perspectives, or discuss potential responses to a range of practical challenges involved in undertaking policy-related research in the fields of tourism, leisure and events. The journal recognises the academic value of diverse perspectives and considers submissions from scholars at all career stages and from all geographic regions.
