| description | Sustainability Transitions Research (STR) investigates shifts in sociotechnical systems towards sustainability. Despite tourism's socioenvironmental impact, it has been neglected in STR. This thesis addresses this gap by applying multi-level perspective and path-dependence theory to analyse the move towards sustainable tourism in the Margaret River region (WA). This thesis identifies a historical transition (1950s-1990s) followed by a sustainability transition (early 2000s-present) as well as complex factors influencing the ongoing sustainability transition in this wine-tourism destination. |
