Abstract

BLANCO OBANDO, Edgar Eduardo. Tourism and social metabolism: environmental effects of tourism in the Atlantic-Caribbean Region. 1970-2011. Diálogos rev. electr. hist [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.1, pp.17-33. ISSN 1409-469X.

Since the approach of social metabolism and analysis of infrastructure construction services during the period between 1970 and 2011, it appears that the development of tourism in the Atlantic-Caribbean region has been fairly modest, one of the lowest from the country. This situation causes the existence of reduced damage to nature and allows in turn, argue that the tourist business as a sustainable metabolism ownership remains with the environment of interaction.

Keywords : tourism; Atlantic-Caribbean region; social metabolism; environment; sustainability.
