Abstract

BRITO-HENRIQUES, Eduardo. COVID-19, tourism and sustainability: everything is connected. Finisterra [online]. 2020, n.115, pp.205-210.  Epub Dec 31, 2020. ISSN 0430-5027.  https://doi.org/10.18055/finis20311.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the devastating crisis that is unfolding in tourism justify a reflection. This essay proposes an interpretation of the COVID-19/tourism nexus from a more-than-human approach and through the lens of integral ecology. After a brief overview in which COVID-19 is presented as a socio-natural event, the relationship between the pandemic, overtourism and the current global tourism crisis is discussed. It will end with a brief reflection on tourism post-COVID-19.

Keywords : COVID-19; tourism; sustainability; actor-network theory; integral ecology.
