Abstract
Because of the multiple facets of its development, international tourism is an ideal field in which to observe the transformation of China marked by radical shifts. International tourism in China has implied subordination to a clearly defined foreign demand which has placed difficulties in the way of the construction of an original Chinese tourism model. This has contributed, despite numerous safeguards, to the import of Western lifestyles. Tourism has also provided a milieu in which one can see enacted the contradictions between the intentions of the center and the autonomy which is indispensible from the point of view of those who provide its various services. Le tourisme international en Chine. Par de multiples aspects le développement du tourisme international est un champ d'observation privilégié de la mutation chinoise, marquée par des ruptures radicales. Le tourisme international en Chine implique une subordination à une demande étrangère bien définie qui rend problématique la construction d'un modèle chinois original pour le tourisme. Il contribue, malgré les nombreuses sauvegardes, à l'importation de modes de vie occidentaux. Le tourisme offre en plus un terrain où se marque la contradiction entre la volonté centrale et l'autonomie qui est indispensable du point de vue de ceux qui fournissent ses divers services.
