Mapping the research journey of Tourism Analysis: A bibliometric study

Abstract

The present study aimed to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the journal Tourism Analysis. Publication and citation structure and keyword analysis have been used to trace the growth and contributions of the journal spanning from 2001 to 2020. The data depicted a declining trend in the year-wise number of publications. The study found that studies related to tourist destinations are the most consistently researched topic in the journal. As evidenced by the data, the journal maintains the pace with global trends, and a few other contemporary issues have been suggested to enhance its influence and readership.
