Tourisme et vacances: pause ou stagnation? Available to Purchase

This article raises the following question: is tourism as a leisure time activity entering a period of stagnation? Research carried out in urban Montreal indicates that the increasing division of society into two classes has an effect on people's behaviour as tourists. Whatever one might believe from the figures that are regularly published, tourism is not entirely dependent on the economic cycle. For it is also greatly influenced by social developments. In our post‐modern societies, tourism growth is not at all continuous.
