Destinos Indutores de Turismo Regional como Política de Governabilidade Estadual no Brasil: Análise dos Estados de Minas Gerais e Bahia a partir do Índice Firjan de Desenvolvimento Municipal (IFDM)

Abstract

The Brazilian Tourism Plan indicates Central Government's decentralization practices for State Governments. However, among the 27 states of the federation, only two have a political agenda of "Inductors Destinations (ID)": Minas Gerais and Bahia. Several papers related tourism and development, but none investigates the State level. Therefore, we established two main purposes: (1) compare the socioeconomic indicator (FIDM) between inducing and non-inducing cities, and; (2) analyze political governance ID in both States. It was demonstrated: ID has higher socioeconomic development; the Minas Gerais Program is more technical-scientific and the Bahia Project is more informative.
