Peer-to-peer Accommodation and Community Resilience
Implications for Sustainable Development
by Anna Farmaki, Dimitri Ioannides, Stella Kladou
Description
The growth of peer-to-peer (P2P) accommodation has been remarkable. However, the rapid expansion of the phenomenon has yielded several concerns over its potentially negative impacts on the economic, social and environmental levels. These impacts are highlighted in policy agenda as an emerging problem encountered by many urban destinations experiencing a boom in P2P accommodation. Specifically, concerns have been raised over the impact of the growth of P2P accommodation on local housing markets, residents' well-being and the environment as a result of the touristification of residential areas. In fact, P2P accommodation has been accused of fuelling the 'overtourism' problem that several destinations face. This edited book addresses the need to examine the P2P accommodation phenomenon from a sustainability lens. In particular, through a collection of chapters focusing on diverse cases, the book considers P2P accommodation from the economic, social, environmental and regulatory dimension of sustainability.
