The aim of this research is to visualize those countries that would have the greatest impact in terms of sensitivity and vulnerability due to the drop in travels, as a product of the pandemic, with special emphasis on South America. For this, the participation of tourism in the economy of certain countries prior to the coronavirus crisis was measured by analysing three groups of countries: the ten most tourist countries in the world according to their receipts; countries whose economies are most dependent on tourism; and the twelve South American countries, contextualized through the other two groups. Thus, multiple combinations of high, low and medium sensitivity and vulnerability were identified for South American and for the countries with the highest absolute receipts from tourism, but an alarming scenario for the most dependent countries on international tourism, many of them small island countries in development (SIDS). Additionally, the ideas of
low apparent sensitivity
and that of
low sensitivity due to role inversion
offer new ways to interpret a low sensitivity. Likewise, and with respect to vulnerability, three possible stages of recovery of international tourism activity were noted.
Objetivo: conocer la calidad de las dietas ofrecidas en comedores de escuelas primarias de jornada completa de Valle Fértil (Provincia de San Juan, Argentina) en relación con las problemáticas de sobrepeso y obesidad infantil. Metodología: la metodología observada se basó en el cálculo del aporte nutricional de los menús e incluyó también entrevistas a los directivos de las escuelas y visita a los establecimientos. Resultados: en los tres colegios la variedad en la dieta no se ajusta a las recomendaciones diarias para niños en edad escolar, en términos de energía (kilocalorías), proteínas, fibras y micronutrientes; los resultados varían de escuela en escuela respecto de sodio, hierro y macronutrientes. Además, se advierte que no en las escuelas no se enseñan hábitos alimenticios saludables. Sin embargo, se respeta el número de comidas aconsejadas. Limitaciones: no se registraron ni analizaron los casos efectivos de obesidad infantil en las escuelas bajo estudio; tampoco se entrevistaron estudiantes, docentes ni padres. Conclusiones: quedó a la vista un importante desequilibrio en la calidad nutricional de la dieta provista en los comedores escolares de jornada completa de Valle Fértil: diagnóstico que podría desembocar en casos de sobrepeso infantil y aún en obesidad.
This article considers the tourist phenomenon as an object of international studies. The aim of this research is to understand the nature of the power that can be built from tourism in the international sphere. In this sense, several theories of International Relations are used to analyze different aspects of the international tourism. These theories are organized according to the paradigms they belong to: realism, internationalism and universalism. As a result of this study, original perspectives of the tourist phenomenon in its global dimension are revealed.
