Sažetak
Dark tourism can contribute to reconciliation in post-conflict societies, but can also foster new conflicts. The research aims to deepen the understanding of stakeholders' interests and their implications on the sustainability of specific type of tourism, known as dark tourism, in the corpus of literature. A state of art proposal of renowned databases from 2011 to 2019, using methods of integrative literature review and theoretical framework of sustainability, indicates the following: (1) each dark tourism practice is unique, (2) relatively sustainable dark tourism supports the unique aura and integrity of its site, questions the appropriateness of its development, includes relevant stakeholders, benefits them and constantly respects their sensibility, recognises that local communities and tourists are the most vulnerable stakeholder groups and often include victims, their descendants and all those connected to the tragedies, encourages the creation of a society that seeks to prevent tragic events and is aligned with the ruling policy. These scientific findings can contribute to the understanding of the basics of sustainable dark tourism and reinforce the development of strategies of sustainable management of dark tourism, much needed in fostering the reconciliation in the post-conflict societies.
