Management of Tourism Research Knowledge in Australia and China

&
Pages 514-528 | Published online: 19 Dec 2008
 

Abstract

Research is often considered the immediate precursor of economic success and innovation but from a knowledge management (KM) perspective it is only an input into a system with knowledge production, adoption, and innovation as components. This article examines and compares the history and characteristics of tourism research in Australia and China to analyse areas where improvements in KM implementation may be made. Overall the amount and breadth of research in tourism in both countries appears to have improved over the past several years. The paper suggests a need for research into improving the transfer of knowledge to tourism business operators and different models of knowledge transfer applied.
