Abstract
Abstract A tourism destination generates economic repercussions for the local economy, in particular when it represents an ‘E-attraction’ for tourists. The objective of this paper is to present the various impacts of a destination when it is considered as an ‘E-attraction’. Along this line, the connection is established between various elements of tourism economics and this type of attraction. More precisely, it appears that positive effects follow from mass tourism; however, sustainable tourism for these destinations requires a special attention with regard to carrying capacities.

The investigation shows Malthus’ thinking to be both political and normative, and the rigid assumptions of the logistic equation and the uncertainty of its terms are found not to allow an unequivocal calculation and prediction of the upper limits (carrying capacity) of population growth.
