“…However, the plan was only partially applied to a monument and, in which case, the problem was not solved and even new ones were created. In short, it came down to giving a satisfactory answer to one of the critical issues in the historic city's development and the balance between the needs of the host community (social, cultural and economic), visitors and heritage conservation (Stuart -Hoyle & Lovell, 2006).…”

The end of the 1980s witnessed the revival of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela, popularly known as "el camino", a fact that brought with it the development of tourism in the city. However, pilgrims have not been the only source of such growth as there have been cultural tourists too. Flows particularly increase during the Compostela Holy Years, i.e., when the 25 th of July, St. James' festivity, falls on a Sunday. The increased track record of visitors in the city since the holy year of 1993 already foresaw a high volume of visitors for the 2010 Holy Year. In order to avoid excessive overcrowding of the cathedral and all its negative effects, a study was developed for proposals to manage tourist flows. This article explains the methodology used for this study and analyses the results of its implementation. We highlight the problems encountered, not only due to the partial implementation of the measures proposed, but also due to the concentration of actions in the cathedral and not in the destination as a whole.

tourism can enhance the overall wellbeing of local communities, making them a more desirable place to reside and work in, while a liveable city that is characterised by a vibrant atmosphere and quality of life can be a powerful source of tourism appeal. this paper explores the concept of liveability and its relationship to tourism and community development, drawing on case studies of two heritage communities in Victoria, australia. the more organic, grassroots process in beechworth is compared and contrasted with an explicit top-down strategic approach in bendigo. liveability is shown to be a complex mosaic of tangible elements that are related to infrastructure, services, and facilities, and intangible elements such as ambience and lifestyle, in which the history and heritage of a community play an important role. overall, liveability may be a key conduit between tourism and general economic and social wellbeing as well as a potential marketing tool and a source of competitiveness for regional communities.

L'étude suggère que deux perspectives analytiques doivent être considérés lorsqu'on cherche à comprendre les dynamiques socio-spatiales promues par l'État dans le domaine du tourisme: l'une est généraliste et souligne qui le povoir de l'Etat se identifie avec le pouvoir de la classe; et l'autre se concentre sur les aspects conjonctureles, où le pouvoir exercé par voie de la structure de l'Etat peut détenir une certaine autonomie opérationnelle. A partir de cas concrets en France et au Brésil, l'intention est signaler que les études sur les politiques publiques de tourisme doivent contempler, au-delà de l'appareil de l'Etat, les chemins institués par des groupes qui exercent le pouvoir de facto dans l'Etat et, ainsi, clarifier les contenus des politiques, leurs répercussions et les relations de production qui sont par eux engendrées ou sauvegardés. Mots-clés: tourisme, politiques publiques, pouvoir de l'Etat, pouvoir de classe, fond public, appareil de l'Etat.
