Over the past decades, the study of consumer behavior has been widely integrated into the body of tourism and leisure research. A large number of researchers have been involved in an attempt to assess the relevance and to test the validity of consumer theories/models in this context. Consumer behavior nowadays represents the major research stream in marketing as product choices and consumption are key to a better comprehension of human beings and to business success. It is not surprising then that many conferences and organisations have established a specific track on expanding the knowledge of consumer behavior in tourism and leisure. 

The CPTHL Symposium, launched 15 years ago, has been the first one to develop such a strong focus on consumer behavior in the field of tourism and leisure from both theoretical and practical perspectives. After a series of 7 successful symposia held throughout the World, Istanbul will host the event in 2013. We call authors and researchers to send their contributions related to any topic in line with choice, behavior and consumption in tourism, hospitality and leisure settings. We particularly welcome paper submissions addressing issues such as: 

. implemented strategies designed to influence tourism and leisure behaviors; 
. laboratory and field experiments about the impacts of tourism and leisure pursuits on individuals and household preferences; 
. consumer satisfaction and/or complaining behavior involving tourism and leisure experiences;
. cross-cultural research on the impact of core values in tourism and leisure behaviors;
. individual and collective identity construction and expression through tourism and leisure consumption;
. the impact of ICT developments on tourists' decision-making and consumption processes;
. CCT (Consumer Culture Theory) approaches for a richer understanding of tourism and leisure choices and behaviors. 

Authors are encouraged to submit their papers in a WORD file attachment to one of the following members: 

. Africa: Antonia Correia (acorreia@ualg.pt) University of Algarve, Portugal
. Asia: T.C. Huan (tchuan@mail.ncyu.edu.tw) National Chiayi University, Taiwan
. Australasia/New Zealand: Sara Dolnicar (sarad@uow.edu.au) University of Wollongong, Australia

. Europe: Alain Decrop (alain.decrop@fundp.ac.be) University of Namur, Belgium
. United States: John Crotts (CrottsJ@cofc.edu) College of Charleston, USA

Qualifying papers (e.g. upon recommmendation of the conference chair) will be invited for submission to the International Journal of Culture, Tourism and Hospitality Research (IJCTHR) and Anatolia: An International Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Research to be considered and reviewed as a special issue and additionally a selected list of papers will be published in an edited book due by an international publisher.

 Dear Colleagues and friends!

It is my great pleasure to invite you to the

2nd International Conference on Tourism and Sports Management

to be held in: Debrecen, Hungary,
on September 5-6. 2012.

Our conference covers the key areas of science, practice and innovation. It sets an example for how these areas can create new value, broaden understanding and be a service to society, the economy and education through the channels and dimensions of sport and exercise.

This theoretical approach is well reflected in the joint endeavour of the University of Debrecen, the City of Debrecen and the DVSC-TEVA Football Club, the long-term cooperation and investment of which resulted in the founding of the Debrecen Football Academy. Acknowledging this collaboration as a "good practice," the theme of our conference was built around the approaching inauguration ceremony of the Football Academy: 

A series of anniversaries makes our conference a particularly special celebration:

 

The Faculty of Applied Economics and Rural Development is turning 10 years old 
The University of Debrecen is turning 100 years old 
The DVSC-TEVA football club is turning 110 years old

Our invitation to the plenary session has been accepted by outstanding national and international speakers. Special guests are coming from one of the most famous football clubs in the world, FC Barcelona. As a result of the cooperation between our Faculty and the National Football Federation, the UEFA Elite ‘A’ licence coaching course will join our conference, too. The "SPARK' award, established by the University of Debrecen for identities delivering long lasting achievements in benefiting youth through the avenues of sports, will be presented during our conference.

Following the plenary sessions, we are encouraging scientific presentations on different topics of sport and tourism. Outstanding, quality presentations will be offered the opportunity to be published in scientific publications. We also are awaiting studies for the “Young Researcher Award”. On the first night of the conference, a Gala Dinner will offer the participants a taste of the local culinary delights and a pleasant forum for networking and professional cooperation.

We hope that during the meeting, our guests will also find some time to visit the city of Debrecen, -this beautiful city with lots of historical buildings and monuments. Following the conference, some interesting options will be offered to you as part of the post-conference program.

Looking forward to meeting you in Debrecen,
Professor András Nábrádi 
Dean
