Abstract

Tourism is an ever-expanding service sector with great growth potential. For this reason, it has become one of the most important pursuits of not only the national but also the international community as a whole. Tourism consists of various consumption activities demanding products from different industries in the economy and means different things to different people. Therefore, it can be said that tourists are motivated to travel for different reasons. Tourism evolves with society and industry to follow and meet the needs of tourists. The emergence of new technologies and the internet has brought some changes and innovations in the field of tourism. The abundance of data has affected people's interest, knowledge and experience. Changes such as the development of technology, the use of many social media tools, and the developments in the economy have affected consumer demands and expectations, and new trends in tourism have emerged in order to meet these expectations. In this study, it is aimed to examine the new trends in tourism conceptually. In this context, new trends in tourism, which have been studied recently in the international literature but are not widely known in the national literature, have been examined and these trends have been tried to be brought to the national literature.

Turizmde Güncel Eğilimler: Kavramsal Bir Değerlendirme

Abstract

Turizm, büyük bir büyüme potansiyeline sahip, sürekli genişleyen bir hizmet sektörüdür. Bu nedenle sadece ulusal değil, aynı zamanda bir bütün olarak uluslararası toplumun en önemli uğraşlarından biri haline gelmiştir. Turizm, ekonomideki farklı endüstrilerden ürün talep eden çeşitli tüketim faaliyetlerinin birleşmesinden oluşmakta ve farklı insanlar için farklı şeyler ifade etmektedir. Bu nedenle turistlerin, farklı nedenlerle seyahat etmeye motive olduğu söylenebilir. Turizm, turistlerin ihtiyaçlarını takip etmek ve karşılamak için toplum ve endüstri ile birlikte gelişmektedir. Yeni teknolojilerin ve internetin ortaya çıkışı, turizm alanında bir takım değişiklikler ve yenilikler getirmiştir. Çok sayıda verinin olması, insanların ilgisini, bilgi ve deneyimlerini etkilemiştir. Teknolojinin gelişmesi, birçok sosyal medya araçlarının kullanımı, ekonomideki gelişmeler gibi yaşanan değişimler tüketici istek ve beklentilerini etkilemiş ve bu beklentileri karşılayabilmek için turizmde yeni eğilimler ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışmada turizmdeki yeni eğilimlerin kavramsal olarak incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda uluslararası yazında son günlerde çalışılan fakat ulusal yazında çokça bilinmeyen yeni eğilimler bir arada incelenerek ulusal yazına kazandırılmaya çalışılmıştır.
