Tourism economics research: A review and assessment (2012, background): “Croes (2011) is among the exceptions that take account of the change”
Regional tourism competitiveness using the PROMETHEE approach (2018, background): “From the supply and demand perspective, the literature includes mixed proposals (Craigwell, 2007; Croes, 2011) as well as proposals concerning only supply or only demand.”
Competing for the disability tourism market – A comparative exploration of the factors of accessible tourism competitiveness in Spain and Australia (2015, background): “Nowadays, other competitiveness measure is the tourism competitive index (TCI) (Croes, 2011), which is composed by three outputs: current performance in the global market scaled by size, dynamism of performance over time and size of the industrial base in the economic structure.”

Destination competitiveness: what we know, what we know but shouldn't and what we don't know but should (2016, background): “Of course no model is without its critics and their conceptualization has been criticized for being underpinned by several hidden cause–effect assumptions (Croes, 2011; Mazanec et al., 2007).”
Where Can Tourism-Led Growth and Economy-Driven Tourism Growth Occur?
