    Why organizations join voluntary sustainable tourism associations: Implications for membership and sustainability monitoring systems
    (Wiley, 2020) Peters, Scott; Font, Xavier; Bonilla Priego, María Jesús
    With the use of institutional theory, we study why organizations join a voluntary sustainable tourism association and how the organization-association dynamics change over time. We find a disconnection between the joining and monitoring motivations for the association and its members that leads to conflicting forces and confusion, resulting in goal misalignment and loss of monitoring data. Voluntary associations need to accommodate for organizations need of social identity, the desire to learn from each other and the sense of belonging from membership (mimetic forces), with the desire to institutionalise the members to behave in increasingly standardised way (normative and eventually coercive forces).
