Despite the variety of banalities that are often associated with trips and vacations as mass consumption, the study of tourism - due to the commitment of social, economic, political and cultural energy - remains one of the predominant inputs for understanding contemporary society and the new social hierarchies that distinguish it. Tourism, which is increasingly seen as a process that has become integral to social and cultural life, also plays an essential role in the social and spatial dialectic that gives meaning to the places. Focusing tourism through the lens of shared social responsibility and productive consumption, the paper explore the role of responsible tourism as a possible way of sustainable development.

Keywords: Shared social responsibility, productive consumption, responsible tourism, sustainable development, travel, wellbeing
