Abstract
En los últimos años, se ha generalizado la apuesta por el turismo de países
y organismos internacionales como instrumento de desarrollo económico,
a pesar de que cada vez son mayores las críticas que ponen en entredicho
esta relación positiva. Entre los argumentos más utilizados en este debate se
incluye la vulnerabilidad del comercio exterior de muchos países en desarrollo
y las deficiencias de sus sistemas fiscales, que limitan, cuando no impiden,
que el crecimiento turístico genere los efectos deseados en la mejora de las
condiciones de vida de estos países.
El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar si la generación de divisas y la
capacidad de recaudación fiscal de un país deben considerarse como factores
clave que condicionan la contribución del crecimiento turístico a un incremento
del nivel de progreso de los países receptores de turismo internacional.
In recent years, there is a widespread commitment of countries and international organizations to tourism as a tool for economic development, although there is increasing criticism of this positive relationship. Among the most common arguments in this debate are the vulnerability of the foreign trade of many developing countries and the weaknesses in their tax systems, which limit, if not impede, the capacity of tourism growth to generate the desired effect in improving the living conditions in these countries. The aim of this study is to identify whether the generation of foreign exchange and the tax collection capacity of a country must be considered as key factors determining the contribution of tourism growth to the rise in the level of progress in international tourist receiving countries.
