Abstract/short description The decade of 1990's was a time of great development of tourism in Ecuador – during this period tourism has become a key part of the economy. Following this, the Ministry of Tourism was created in 1992. The most important is a very big influx of foreigner tourists - in 1996 Ecuador was visited by half a million tourists. This great number was the result of varied attractions being available, from beach resorts to natural parks and countryside. Skoczek suggests that the rise in the number of visitors comes especially from the interest in the latter. She describe

In recent years, community-based tourism has become a source of income within indigenous and rural communities, either as a principal or complementary activity. However, the management of the administrative and financial processes of this type of enterprise was unknown. In this sense, this paper aims to analyze the state of these processes within the so-called Community-Based Tourism Enterprises (CBTEs) in the provinces of Pichincha, Napo, and Imbabura (Ecuador). For this purpose, a matrix was designed to collect information on the administrative and financial processes that an enterprise shou

The purpose of this research was to examine the effects of machismo–marianismo gender ideology on a tourism planning dialogue within a community-based tourism planning project. Using community-based research methodology, three focus groups were conducted in a rural Ecuadorian community. Findings indicate that gender ideology influences the planning discourse in various ways, which affect if and how women are involved in the tourism industry. This study provides evidence for why tourism planning frameworks need to be critical of existing power structures such as gender ideology. Recommendations

This article discusses a change in the positioning strategies by countries as tourism destinations from cognitive components to affective ones. The tourism literature recognizes destination personality as an affective evaluation. While previous literature has established that place personality traits are important for Destination Marketing Organizations to consider, little empirical work assessing the personality metaphor in destination branding has been undertaken.
