Tourism in Times of Crisis: From the World Wars to the Corona Pandemic

Description

How has Switzerland developed into a premier travel destination? As an economic sector directly affected by global events such as exchange rate fluctuations, mobility restrictions, wars, environmental disasters, or pandemics, tourism is accustomed to volatile business conditions. However, it has consistently demonstrated its adaptability to long-term changes in people's economic opportunities, cultural perceptions of travel, or new technological possibilities. The tour highlights the impact of crises from the World Wars to today on Switzerland as a tourism country. The number of participants is limited – online reservations take precedence.
