La politique internationale du tourisme au tournant du millenaire

Abstract

International integration in tourrism is increasing at a steady pace. This has meant a corresponding growth in the number of problems facing the community of nations. At the dawn of a new millennium the intergovernmental tourism policy agenda now includes such thorny questions as the dismantling of barriers to travel, finding ways to ensure the safety and security of tourists, and the promotion of sustainable development in areas devoted to tourism. What the intergovernmental tourism network really needs, to allow it to rationally plan and implement international ground rules and promotional programmes is a greater degree of institutionalised co‐operation at the operational level of tourism. This in turn would lead to more efficient integration of the world economy, to the benefit of both prosperity and world peace.
