Governments have seized on tourism as a way of creating
employment and bringing income ? preferably foreign
exchange ? into troubled economies. For years the
tourism?s capacity to filter wealth through communities
has been a major argument in its favor. The tourist
spends money on accommodations, food and souvenirs,
bringing income to the suppliers of these goods and
services, whose money will in turn circulate through the
economy.
