Enfoques de las investigaciones acerca del ciclo de vida del área turística (CVAT)

espanolEl CVAT hace un analisis de las fases evolutivas del desarrollo turistico a partir de cambios en el crecimiento de la demanda, la expansion del equipamiento turistico, la infraestructura y otros factores que inciden en el destino. Con el proposito de explorar las perspectivas teorica y metodologica del CVAT a partir del modelo de Butler y de encontrar enfoques aplicados en areas protegidas (ap) de uso turistico a la calidad de vida y al bienestar social de la poblacion receptora, se hizo un analisis de las publicaciones disponibles, con bases de datos multidisciplinarias de isi Web of Knowledge y Google Scholar por tema a partir de 1980, ano en que se publico la primera investigacion de Butler. Se utilizaron las palabras clave “tourism life cycle” y “tourism area life cycle”. Se identificaron aproximadamente seis estudios empiricos en ap con enfoques y analisis multidisciplinarios. Se concluyo que se han realizado nuevas propuestas significativas al modelo que ademas se adecuan a las necesidades de cada area turistica. Tambien se evidencio que existe una relacion directa entre CVAT, calidad de vida y bienestar social de la poblacion de acogida. Igualmente, se evidencio una tendencia al uso de la geografia economica evolutiva para el estudio de la evolucion de las areas turisticas. EnglishThe talc makes an analysis of the evolutionary of tourism phases development in the destination, based on changes of the growth of demand. This approach causes that to deviate from its mission with the host community and its wellness. In order to explore the theoretical and methodological perspectives of talc based on the Butler’s model, and to find applied approaches in protected areas (pa), to the quality of life and social welfare in the host population, To made an analysis of the available publications in multidisciplinary databases of isi Web of Knowledge and Google Scholar by subject, starting in 1980, year in that Butler’s published first research, was using the keywords: «Tourism life cycle» and «Tourism Area Life Cycle. Approximately six empirical studies in pa were identified with multidisciplinary approaches and analyzes. It was concluded significant that new proposals have been made to the model that also are adapted to the needs of each tourism area. It was also evident that there is a direct relationship between talc and quality of life and welfare of the host population, as well as a tendency towards the use of evolutionary economic geography to study the evolution of tourist areas
