International Tourism, Demand, And Gdp Implications: A Background And Empirical Analysis, Michael Brakke Jan 2004

International Tourism, Demand, And Gdp Implications: A Background And Empirical Analysis, Michael Brakke

Undergraduate Economic Review

International tourism, a primary source of growth for many countries, is inadequately represented in the economic literature.

A pooled model for international tourism demand is constructed for 85 countries using fixed-effects specification. In addition to conventional variables, a variable representing political conditions acts as a proxy for the many exogenous impacts that affect tourism. The nature of tourism volatility due to the exogenous shocks is discussed, and a statistical link between concentrations in tourism as an export good and GDP volatility is explored.
