Abstract

The growth of urban tourism requires a reconceptualization of the same. The first part of this essay is oriented to its theorization from various conceptual perspectives: interest in the tourist, their practices, their situation as an acting person, as a producer of the tourism space, are some of the various viewpoints considered. The second part, analyzes the relationship between urban tourism and gentrification; we state that the gentrification of historical downtown neighborhoods in Latin America is more the result of their "turistification" and the urban politics of local governments, than of processes based on the actions of the middle class gentrifi-ers. The conclusion confirms the strong but peculiar relationships between new types of urban tourism and gentrification
