Introduction to Tourism Systems

How can economics help solve the sustainability challenges of the 21st century? Which economic approaches can protect the natural environment and maximise human welfare now and in the future? In this unit, we will combine a critical analysis of the conceptual framework and tools of mainstream economics with an exploration of alternative economic approaches that emphasise the embeddedness of economic activity within ecosystems and the limits these systems impose on economic activity. By looking to approaches outside of mainstream economics such as ecological economics, we will challenge the dominance of economic decision-making that relies on efficiency-driven, market-based frameworks and broaden our range of solutions for tackling sustainability problems. Key topics include introduction to economic thought, economic tools for decision-makers, economics for climate change, economic growth and heretical alternatives, and Indigenous and ethno-economics.Note: If you study this subject in Winter, the subject will be a shorter duration (5 weeks) and will require at least 20 hours of study per week.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.

Approach the topic of sustainability from an economic standpoint. Investigate some of the economic tools and techniques decision-makers draw on to address sustainability problems. Address where climate change fits into this discussion.
