Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in hospitality and tourism is laden with contradictions.\u00a0 From the simple \u201ccarbon offsetting\u201d of budget flights to the warning from the Maldivian Government that their country will disappear due to rising water levels whilst also building, in one year, at least seven additional airports to service their resort islands. The academic literature does not always help; the continually inconclusive or contradictory findings of financial impact studies, often meaningless CSR reporting, and consumer cynicism over perceived \u201cgreen-washing\u201d activities (Farrington et al., 2017) further contribute to the lack of clarity in this area.
\nThere is a need for a substantive move towards sustainable, ethical, responsible, environmentally or socially friendly strategies, but also towards concern for the well-being of future generations in the coming decades (Farrington et al., 2017; Jones et al., 2016; Wells et al., 2016a). Despite continued interest, this is a challenge for many countries, particularly with regards to meeting the ever-shifting opinions and customer expectations surrounding environmental issues pertaining to modern hospitality and tourism. Research must fundamentally debate the relevance and application of sustainability to the sector and its relationship with external stakeholders, and move away from narrow focuses. More specifically, \u2018one size does not fit all\u2019 with regards to sustainability and CSR, hence societies and organisations with different cultures and beliefs may be motivated to be involved in sustainability and CSR developments for different reasons, and may also face diverse barriers to implementation (Nyahunzvi, 2013; Wells et al., 2016b; Xu, 2014; Yadav et al., 2016).\u00a0 Thus, the goal of this special issue is to encourage new theoretical and empirical development on sustainability and CSR studies in the hospitality and tourism field. We offer the following themes to indicate potential research opportunities and areas of interest for this special issue, but we also welcome high quality research papers focused on other aspects of sustainability and CSR.<\/p>\n
