 Turizm sektörünün gelişimine yön veren birçok paydaş bulunmaktadır. Bu paydaşlardan biri hatta en önemlisi de yerel yönetimlerdir. Bu bağlamda bu çalışmanın amacı, turizm ve yerel yönetim konularının birlikte yer aldığı akademik çalışmaları bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi ile inceleyerek mevcut durumu ve güncel eğilimleri belirlemektir. Bu kapsamda 23 Ağustos 2023 tarihinde Web of Science veri tabanında yıl sınırlaması yapılmadan tourism and local government anahtar kelimelerinin birlikte geçtiği akademik çalışmalar taranmıştır. Doküman türü ve dil konusunda filtreleme yapıldıktan sonra 1994 ile 2023 yılları arasında 870 çalışma değerlendirmeye dahil edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler VOSviewer programı ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgulara göre; turizm ve yerel yönetim ilişkisini inceleyen akademik çalışmaların sayısında giderek artış eğilimi olduğu, en çok çalışmanın 2021 yılında yapıldığı ve bu konudaki en çok atıfın ise 2022 yılında verildiği tespit edilmiştir. Turizm ve yerel yönetim konusunda yapılan çalışmalar en çok Konaklama Boş Zaman Spor Turizm alanında yayımlanırken, en fazla yayın yapılan kaynak Sustainability dergisi olmuştur. Turizm ve yerel yönetim konusuna yönelik en çok kullanılan anahtar kelimenin turizm olduğu saptanmıştır. En çok iş birliği yapan yazar Xu, Honggang dır. En fazla iş birliği yapan ülke ise Çin olmuştur. Doğan Gürsoy en çok atıf alan yazar olarak ön plana çıkmaktadır. Tourism Management dergisinin en fazla atıf alan kaynak olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu çalışma turizm ve yerel yönetim konusuna odaklanan ilk bibliyometrik analiz olup, literatüre katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.
