Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, xiv + 290 pages, NOT ex-library. Front endpaper inscribed by one of the Authors. Gentle wear only, book is clean and bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- The book examines the evolution and impact of tourism policy in the Republic of Ireland, providing an in-depth analysis of how government interventions and strategic planning have shaped the Irish tourism industry. It comprises 10 chapters that systematically explore the relationship between tourism policy formulation and performance outcomes in Ireland. The work traces the development of Irish tourism from its early stages through the rapid growth period of the 1990s, when overseas visitors increased at an average of 9.5% per annum. It analyzes the role of key institutions like Bord Fáilte (the former national tourism authority) in driving tourism development, and examines both demand-side and supply-side factors affecting the sector. The authors provide critical insights into public policy frameworks, economic impacts of tourism on the Irish economy, and the effects of public funding mechanisms. The book offers a detailed examination of how Ireland transformed its tourism sector through strategic policy interventions, addressing challenges such as infrastructure development, marketing strategies, and the balance between promoting economic growth while preserving cultural authenticity. It serves as both a historical record and analytical framework for understanding tourism policy effectiveness in a small, open economy context. -- Tourism Policy and Performance is the first full-length study to test, with hard performance data, how well a national tourism policy actually delivers on the economic and regional goals set by government. Deegan and Dineen trace Irish tourism policy from independence (1922) to the mid-1990s, explaining why successive governments regarded visitor flows, foreign exchange earnings and rural job creation as strategic objectives. After outlining performance indicators and benchmarking techniques, the authors examine five policy arenas in depth: regional development and transport access; overseas marketing and destination branding; EU structural-fund support and the 1992 Single Market; the environmental costs of rapid expansion; and the special case of Northern Ireland during conflict and transition. Drawing on Bord Fáilte statistics, input-output models and stakeholder interviews, they show that generous fiscal incentives and coordinated marketing delivered impressive growth in arrivals and receipts but also produced acute seasonality, spatial imbalances and capacity bottlenecks. The closing chapter distils lessons for small open economies: the need for stable long-term funding, inter-agency coordination and rigorous performance measurement. The book therefore serves both as an Irish case study and as a blueprint for evidence-based tourism policymaking worldwide. Inscribed by Author(s). N° de réf. du vendeur 011900
