| Abstract: | Sustainable tourism management policies should aim at maximising economic benefits from tourist arrivals while minimizing associated adverse impacts on the environment. This study assesses the short-run and long-run relationships between tourist arrivals, per capita economic output, emissions, energy consumption and capital formation, citing Nepal as a specific case study. We developed four hypotheses and tested them using time-series econometrics based on the autoregressive distributed lag model and Granger causality tests. The results provide strong evidence of an economy driven tourism sector where expansion in economic output leads to expansion in tourist arrivals. More tourist arrivals, in turn, generate positive impacts on gross capital formation. Energy consumption negatively affects tourist arrivals, calling for increased attention towards improving energy efficiency and energy diversity. We conclude that national policies to increase tourist arrivals should be integrated with national energy and environmental policies in order to facilitate the transition towards a sustainable tourism sector. |

| Abstract: | This work analyses the pattern of expenditure by foreign tourists in Italy and of Italy’s market share of the world’s exports of tourism services since the beginning of the last decade. The paper proposes a comparison with the other main euro area countries, focusing in particular on the years following the global financial crisis. This study utilizes data from the Bank of Italy’s Survey on International Tourism for a structural analysis of international travel flows to Italy and the dynamics of foreign tourists’ expenditure in Italy and its macro-areas, considering the evolution of “potential” demand. |
