Abstract
A model for touristic space. Touristic space is found at the borders of work and power centres. Where tourists go is a function of the cost and duration of their journey and their stay. Four belts of tourism are defined, according to the percentage and volume of tourists coming from particular centres, the predominant means of transport and the length of stay. The form of these belts is altered by climate, history and politics and also by the influence of other centres supplying tourists. The perception of tourist resorts has an effect on where tourists go and on the policies of the travel organizations. The evolution of tourist resorts provides the material for a first synthesis of the dynamics of touristic space.
