Dear colleagues,

Case studies that will be submitted by the 30th of June 2012 will be reviewed and considered for publication in the second volume of the Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Cases (JHTC) that will be published by the end of 2012.

The "Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Cases" is published annually and all case studies submitted to the journal are double-blind reviewed by three reviewers. The JHTC was launched in 2011 and its first volume is available at http://www.chrie.org/publications/jhtc/index.aspx (CHRIE membership is required for full access to papers)

The JHTC is also supported by the I-CHRIE Johnson & Wales Case Study Competition, which was introduced in 2011. Since its begginings the Case Study Competition has been growing from strength to strength and this year competition has attracted 23 case studies of a high research and pedagogical quality. In this vein, the 2012 volume of JHCT is going to be a great contribution to the tourism and hospitality education. 

The JHTC aims to fill in the publication gap for case studies in tourism and hospitality. Case studies provide innovative ideas, business (best) practices, professional dilemmas, and lessons learned from the tourism and hospitality reality. Hence, cases are an invaluable source of knowledge for educators, professionals and researchers alike. In this vein, the "Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Cases" is the first peer-reviewed publication in tourism that aims to act as:
  a.. a clearinghouse providing educators with valuable case studies to enrich their educational and instruction methods; 
  b.. an internationally recognised publication outlet offering researchers the opportunity to publish their research work; 
  c.. a new added-value service of ICHRIE to its members; 
  d.. an additional important contribution of ICHRIE to tourism & hospitality education and research.


The case studies may focus on any topic and subject area related to the tourism & hospitality education and industry. Case studies may be compiled from field research, published sources and/or generalized experience. Case studies do not have to follow a specific structure. However, each case study is expected to include sections related to the following topics: a) a background of the subject organisation and/or of the topic; b) an analysis of the dilemma and/or the teaching objective; c) a section explaining the questions and dilemmas of the case study; d) related bibliography and additional reading. 



The case studies must be of maximum 5,000 words excluding figures, tables, annexes and bibliography. Each case study submission must be accompanied by a teaching note for which there is no world limit (although a teaching note of a minimum of 1,000 words is expected). The case studies and the teaching note will be evaluated against three criteria: content, theoretical underpinning, and presentation. Case studies must adhere and follow the submission guidelines of case study writing.
