Terrorism attacks in major cities (e.g. New York, Paris, Brussels, London, Barcelona) and their impact on the image of these global tourism destinations is a topic of growing interest to academics, industry practitioners and policy makers worldwide. The impact of recent terrorist attacks may extend beyond immediate image issues and to wider longer-term aspects such as the resilience of the destination’s brand, its overall competitiveness in global tourism markets and its attractiveness to major investors.<\/p>\n

Although a number of studies have analysed the impact of security concerns linked to terrorism on the events industry (e.g., Hu and Goldblatt, 2005; Gordon et al., 2008) and tourism (see Sonmez and Graeffe, 1998; Goodrich, 2002), their scope to date remains somewhat limited with some considering economic impact (e.g., Pizam and Smith, 2000), visitor risk perceptions (e.g., Fuchs and Reichell, 2011; Korstanje, 2015), dark tourism (e.g., Seraphin and Seraphin, 2017), social theory (e.g., Mansfeld and Pizam, 2006) or tourism demand (e.g., Arana and Leon, 2008), with very few adopting a more strategic outlook as regards tourism destinations (Beirman, 2003; Paraskevas and Arendell, 2007). This themed issue seeks to redress this balance by addressing a major knowledge gap in our understanding of the longer term impacts of terrorism on the resilience of tourism destination brands (see Avraham, 2015), their overall competitiveness in the global tourism market and their attractiveness to major international investors.<\/p>\n

The aims of this\u00a0themed issue<\/em>\u00a0are as follows:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To determine how acts of terrorism in affected cities influence these cities’ destination images and brands.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To explore how consumers adapt their behaviours in the short- and long-term with respect to affected cities and their surrounding regions.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To examine the strength of destination brand resilience in cities affected by terrorist acts.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To analyze successful recovery strategies in tourism cities affected by terrorism.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To review the overall impacts of terrorism aimed at visitors on global tourism.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 To analyze risk-taking profiles of consumers in the context of terrorism acts and their probability of occurrence.<\/p>\n
