TOURISM AND SUSTAINABILITY- NECESSARY INTERACION

Abstract

With the advent of industrial society, tourism began to gain relevance in the "status" of the opposite pole to toil. The study aims to identify the interaction between tourism and sustainability. This is a qualitative, literature review study. The studies allow us to discriminate two orientations; one considers tourism related to value systems and ideology, and the other is concerned with tourism in relation to culture, politics and community. The mutation of activity provides a recomposition of energies to face work again. The new post-industrial society identifies leisure as a prerogative of great necessity for the well-being of modern man. A characteristic facet of post-industrial societies is that the scarcity of food has given way to the scarcity of time, with special implications for behavior. However, today it is configured a challenge of extreme relevance for tourism, consistent with the indispensability of interacting with sustainability.
