Green innovation research in the field of hospitality and tourism: the construct, antecedents, consequences, and future outlook

ABSTRACT

Firms in the field of hospitality and tourism (H&T) have focused on the green innovation (GI) concept to handle environmental problems to generate revenue strategies and build brand awareness for stakeholders. This has created an important accumulation of knowledge in the literature. However, in the literature, there is no study investigating what the progress on GI literature is to help researchers in the theory development and practitioners to provide examples for their strategic decisions. Hence, This study investigates the progress in green innovation (GI) research in the field of hospitality and tourism (H&T). For this purpose, 74 studies published in 32 different journals were examined. Using content analysis, this paper examined three issues regarding green innovation research – the development levels and current trends in green innovation research; drivers and consequences, mediators and moderators of such research and agenda for future research.

摘要

酒店与旅游行业的企业已经开始专注于运用绿色创新的概念来解决环境方面的问题，从而为利益相关方制定营收策略，树立品牌意识。这对文献方面知识的积累做出了重要的贡献。但是在文献中，并没有任何关于哪些绿色创新文献的发展有助于研究人员推动理论的发展，哪些绿色创新文献的发展有助于从业者并为他们的战略决策提供范例的研究。因此，本文针对发表在32个不同期刊中的74篇论文，研究了酒店与旅游行业绿色创新的发展。本文使用内容分析法，探讨绿色创新研究方面的三个问题：绿色创新研究的发展层次和目前的趋势；此类研究的驱动，结果，中介变数和调节变数；未来的研究议程。
