摘要:Economic development,initially understood and seen as a growth,receives in the 21st century a human side component,decreasing quantitative in favor of qualitative. The tourism industry has experienced a continuous growth,based on natural resources,with adverse effects,and now it's time for efforts to move toward finding a balance between tourism and the environment. Thus emerged the concept of sustainable tourism and,in a broader sense,sustainable development of tourism. This paper proposes a theoretical crossing in the literature,following growth,development and sustainability wire against the background of the relationship between tourism and environment,offering two solutions - tourism niche orientation and social responsibility.
