Zusammenfassung: This book critically explores the interconnections between tourism and the contemporary city from a policy-oriented standpoint, combining tourism perspectives with discussion of urban models, issues, and challenges. Research-based analyses addressing managerial issues and evaluating policy implications are described, and a comprehensive set of case studies is presented to demonstrate practices and policies in various urban contexts. A key message is that tourism policies should be conceived as integrated urban policies that promote tourism performance as a means of fostering urban quality and the well-being of local communities, e.g., in terms of quality spaces, employment, accessibility, innovation, and learning opportunities. In addition to highlighting the significance of urban tourism in relation to key urban challenges, the book reflects on the risks and tensions associated with its development, including the rise of anti-tourism movements as a reaction to touristification, cultural commodification, and gentrification. Attention is drawn to asymmetries in the costs and benefits of the city tourism phenomenon, and the supposedly unavoidable trade-off between the interests of residents and tourists is critically questionedZusammenfassung: Global context, policies and practices in urban tourism: An introduction -- Part I Urban Tourism: Defining the research scene and dimensions -- Tourism connectivity and spatial complexity: A widening bi-dimensional arena of urban tourism research -- Mind the Gap: Reconceptualising inclusive development in support of integrated urban planning and tourism development -- Emerging technologies and cultural tourism: Opportunities for a cultural urban tourism research agenda -- On the move: Emerging fields of transport research in urban tourism -- The participatory place branding process for tourism: Linking visitors and residents through the city brand -- Globetrotters and brands: Cities in an emerging communicative space -- The construction of an emerging tourist destination and its related human capital challenges -- Urban coastal tourism and climate change: Indicators for a Mediterranean prospective -- Visitor streams in city destinations: Towards new tools for measuring urban tourism -- Part II The construction of multiple city 'products' through culture, creativity and heritage: Principles, policies and practices -- Museumification of historical centres: The case of Frankfurt Altstadt reconstruction -- Heritage and urban regeneration.
