Abstract

In an era of globalisation, tourism has become a crucial economic driver, contributing significantly to global GDP and stimulating the development of other sectors. However, awareness of the negative impact of tourism on the environment and society has also grown. This study examines the increasing relevance of sustainable development in the tourism industry, with a focus on ecotourism and sustainable tourism management. The analysis is conducted through a bibliometric lens, tracking the evolution and interaction of these concepts in the academic literature. Through bibliometric analysis, the paper reveals developments and trends in research in this field, examining the contributions of researchers from across the globe. The results show how the themes of sustainable development and tourism are interlinked and how they have developed over time. This research contributes to current discussions on tourism and sustainable development by providing a comprehensive overview of the literature and identifying possible research directions. The results are intended to support policy makers, tourism managers and researchers in their efforts to promote more sustainable and responsible tourism.
