Tourism and the deterioration of human capital: A coda

Abstract

While tourism offers major development opportunities for some countries or regions, it can bring harmful consequences to others. When promoting and fostering tourism, we should always have in mind the potential risks associated with tourism development. The threats associated with tourism growth can sometimes be substantial and, in the long run, even dramatic. This article serves as a kind of epilogue to an empirical paper that demonstrated significant risks associated with tourism development within a high-income country. Moving beyond that initial study, it discusses what occurred in the aftermath of its publication by examining the paper's local academic, societal, and policy-related impacts while exploring why its insights failed to translate into concrete policy changes.
