description

The growth observed in the international tourism sector in the last three decades, together with the existence of satisfactory empirical evidence, in terms of the contribution of tourism activities to economic growth in different countries, has generated a tacit (and uncritical) consensus around Tourism, as an instrument for the development of the world's periphery, causing a growing role for tourism within the Development policies and strategies of both low-income countries, as well as peripheral areas and areas in decline. The present work proposes a review of the Tourism-Development relationship from the Theory of Development and its main paradigms (Modernization, Dependence, Neoliberal-Globalizing and Sustainability-Alternative), promoting a vision of Tourism as a complex phenomenon that enables a fertile reflection, loaded with prudence, on Tourism-Development interactions.
