Turismo y desarrollo económico: ¿hace el patrimonio la diferencia en el caribe?
El presente texto muestra un análisis comparado para cuatro países del Gran Caribe, a saber: Guatemala, Guyana, Jamaica y República Dominicana. El asunto que se aborda es la relación entre turismo y desarrollo económico, partiendo de una clasificación entre países poseedores de patrimonio según la UNESCO y países que no lo poseen. De esta forma, se comparan dos países pertenecientes al Caribe Insular (Jamaica y República Dominicana) y dos pertenecientes al Caribe continental (Guatemala y Guyana), haciendo también comparaciones agregadas entre países con patrimonio (Guatemala y República Dominicana) y países sin patrimonio (Guyana y Jamaica). A través del análisis de la literatura referente al tema del turismo, se logra una perspectiva general de la importancia del mismo en la economía actual, tanto global como del Caribe, y con el análisis de información cuantitativa se muestran las aproximaciones a indicadores de desarrollo económico para los países estudiados. ****** The present text shows a comparative analysis of four Great Caribbean’s countries, to know: Guatemala, Guyana, Jamaica and Dominican Republic.

Thus, two Caribbean state islands (Jamaica and Dominican Republic) and two Caribbean continental countries (Guatemala and Guyana) are compared; also aggregate comparisons are made among Heritage owner countries (Guatemala and Dominican Republic) and Heritage no-owner countries (Guyana and Jamaica). Through literature analysis concerning tourism, is achieved a general perspective about importance of it in actual economy, not only global but in the Caribbean, and with quantitative information analysis show approximations to economic development indicators for studied countries.
