Restrictions to mass tourism

Abstract

[eng] A mass tourism is a fundamental subject of that thesis. A purpose is to submit the adequate procedures that countries introduced as a mean to combat the negative effects that provoke a mass tourism to different areas of life: environmental damages, reduced cultural heritage, seasonality, tourism dependence, lack of respect to the origin habitants or overcrowding are only some positions highlited from the whole list of challenges that touristic areas have to face. That is why the government is obliged to put the limits, in order to balance the high demand with the possibilities of the territory and their scare resources. In that thesis I will study which limits the governments are proposing, how they could improve, and which new ideas could be positively examined in case of Balearic Islands. The control of other countries will be considered as a reflection of new opportunities that could be approved in a future
