HOST COMMUNITY: AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN TOURISM MANAGEMENT

HOST COMMUNITY: AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN TOURISM MANAGEMENT

Local community: An essential element in tourism management. Local communities have been considered an essential element in the tourist system. Although its participation is often minimal in planning and management procedures, its importance is based upon the support or rejection of tourism development. In this case, the present paper aims to emphasize the importance of incorporating the local communities in such processes. Specifically, the lack of academic attention on local communities as research objects is analyzed. Likewise, it briefly examines semantic aspects of “community” as a concept. Finally, and most importantly, it explores local communities as essential elements in the tourism system so that the importance of incorporating them in tourism planning and management can be highlighted.

La comunidad receptora se ha considerado un elemento esencial en el sistema turístico. Aunque su incorporación en los procesos de planificación y gestión turística es frecuentemente mínima, su importancia radica en el apoyo u obstaculización al desarrollo turístico. En este sentido, la presente obra busca enfatizar la importancia de incorporar la comunidad local en dichos procesos. Específicamente, analiza la falta de atención académica en la comunidad receptora como objeto de estudio. Asimismo, examina brevemente aspectos semánticos del concepto “comunidad”. Finalmente, examina la comunidad receptora como elemento esencial del sistema turístico para de esta manera rescatar su importancia en la planificación y gestión turística.
