Abstract
The Department of Tourism, University of Otago, commenced a two-year research programme into the environmental values of ecotourists in September 1999. One of the objectives of the research project was the production of an ecotourism bibliography. The papers and publications selected for the bibliography were chosen for their relevance to the study and management of ecotourism and nature tourism activities in New Zealand. It was decided to include, in addition to New Zealand material, relevant literature from Australia, the Pacific and significant international works. The bibliography contains 949 ecotourism references with particular attention to definitions, planning, management, development, environmental values, education/interpretation, marketing and ‘best practice’ ecotourism. This document is organised into three parts and includes a full list of selected references that appear in alphabetical order, a keyword index and an annotated bibliography of material that was influential during the research period.
