  From one crisis to another: politics, Russia-Ukraine war, Covid-19 and the future of tourism

  Post Crisis Tourism: Resilience, Transformation, or Evolution?

  The covid-19 pandemic has plummeted the tourism sector into a serious and unprecedented crisis. For the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) the covid-19 pandemic is «by far the most serious crisis that international tourism has faced since records began (1950) [...] The impact will be felt to varying degrees in different regions of the world." In the first three months of 2020, the tourism industry lost $80 billion, and several million jobs are at risk. As we begin to talk about decontamination, Global tourism may be facing a new challenge: the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. From soaring oil prices to sanctions, declining tourist numbers, etc., the escalating conflict in Ukraine will have an impact on tourism. Thus, after the coronavirus crisis, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is becoming a new challenge for the tourism sector. Several questions arise that we would like to explore. Rather than adopting a developmental approach, we propose to adopt a reflexive approach instead. The expected contributions will combine empirical work and theoretical reflections and can be anchored in a variety of disciplinary fields in the humanities and social sciences.

  The city in the Near-East in the 21st century

  Ce numéro de la revue Territoire en Mouvement propose de s’intéresser à ces villes de l’Est de la Méditerranée, à leur passé récent, à leurs difficultés et atouts actuels et à leur avenir, sous forme d’études de cas ou au contraire en développant des comparaisons ou des généralisations. Les concepts et schémas théoriques mobilisés pourront couvrir un éventail intellectuel très large, allant de la grille d’analyse des inégalités environnementales – pour les thématiques croisant social et environnement – à la théorie des capabilités d’Amartya Sen – pour les difficultés d’accès à certains lieux et biens –, en passant par l’écologie urbaine initiée par l’École de Chicago et bien d’autres cadres théoriques.
