Sustainable Development Goals and informal economies in Latin America: The bargaining power of informal economies in a sustainable context

This special issue addresses the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), informal economies to explore how informal economies need to be captured, understood and connected to SDGs enabling innovative sustainable development models. Like Bramwell, Higham, Lane and Miller (2017) and Tazim et al (2016) suggest, also the special issue calls for challenging us to think about Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) in light of new contexts and new questions for sustainability-oriented tourism research. All papers analyze from a critical lens how sustainable development is addressed from Multiple Worlds perspective. Thus, the papers explore how SDGs and sustainability is reworked through salient economic and social understandings and examines how differing cultural, moral and institutional structures underpins the SDGs and sustainability when conceptualizing these.
