Abstract
This editorial raises crucial issues surrounding the sustainability of tourist cities in Spain, highlighting the tension between the desire for leisure and consumption-driven tourism and the growing need for more sustainable, degrowth-oriented practices. Through the lens of philosopher Marina Garcés’s concept of liveability, it explores the challenges and potential solutions for creating tourist cities in Spain that are not only attractive and liveable but also environmentally responsible and socially equitable.
