Abstract

The Balearic Islands today form the largest tourism cluster in the Mediterranean, an extensive industrial district whose origins date back more than a century. This article explores the key period during which the hotels and travel firms built up their relations of cooperation and competition which explain the subsequent dynamism of the island's tourist trade and its remarkable expansion in the second half of the twentieth century.
