Green Digital Enterprise and Chaos Theory in Tourism Development: The Case of Eco-Tourism in South Africa
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper examines how eco-tourism can be regarded as a change agent in the tourism economy in developing countries. By using conceptual contributions from chaos theory, the authors illustrate how eco-tourism might give competitive advantage, using South Africa as the empirical setting. Destinations focusing on chaos theory when organizing their efforts within eco-tourism may be able to tailor make services to well-defined market segments through the use of tacit knowledge. Future research may benefit from using untraditional approaches found in the business literature. DOI: 10.4018/978-1-4666-2646-1.ch017
