Abstract

This study systematically reviews, synthesises and integrates the extant literature on value co-destruction in the field of tourism and hospitality. The results indicate that research in this field is still in its infancy, suffers from a contextual imbalance and employs mainly qualitative methods. Several gaps are identified, and four areas for future work are proposed: further theorisation, application of the topic and scale development, fostering a broader focus on cross-cultural studies and a need for studies in different hospitality and tourism settings; greater use of on-site data collection and engaging in mixed-methods analysis; and greater consideration of service-provider and multiple-actor perspectives.
