<i>‘This politically engaged collection provides an original appraisal of progress made by tourism towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals, while inviting us to interrogate the meaning of sustainable tourism in the light of the constitutive ideologies and power structures which influence the application of the SDGs in a range of different tourism contexts. This timely book will be essential reading for anyone seeking a robust and critical understanding of the relationship between tourism and the SDGs as well as providing inspiration for all those committed to developing transformative strategies for just and sustainable tourism futures.’</i>
