Geo-Economy of the Future

Abstract

Tourism includes many elements, but the environmental aspects act as a key factor of tourism. These aspects include Inputs, Processes, Outputs, and Feedback. The Inputs include elements from demand—the tourism potential, motivation, travel opportunities, and destination resources—attractions, services, information, and lodging. The Processes include economic, social, and environmental interactions that can have positive and negative effects. The Feedback allows planning appropriate supervision measures, capacity, policies, and strategies for tourism growth while minimizing negative effects. The tourism system has been defined and modeled via several different perspectives. A functioning tourism system consists of several interrelated components. Demand consists of the tourism market and includes the interest of people to travel and their ability to travel.
