“…This outcome probably implicates that the effectiveness of public sector marketing spending to improve tourism diminishes on the long run. The findings of Deskin and Seevers (2011) corroborate this argument, and suggest that the effects of public sector spending to promote tourism decrease over time as tourism expenditures increase.…”

Tourism development (TD) and quality of life (QoL) have been studied mostly from the perspective of how TD affects QoL, but the inverse relationship is less widely researched. Understanding this interrelationship will broaden the definition and goals of development, and will help shifting the debate from an income perspective to a QoL standpoint. This study assesses the linkages between TD, QoL, and economic growth for the island of Aruba. The study contributes to the literature by improving the understanding of the nature of the relationship between TD and QoL, by advancing the theory-building process. The methodology involves multivariate cointegration analyses and Granger causality testing. The results confirm the two-way direct relationship between TD and QoL, with proactive roles for both direct and indirect relationships. The findings highlight the need for recognizing the importance of QoL in determining TD, and understanding the workings of TD and economic growth on QoL dimensions.

“…Di tengah persaingan anggaran biaya untuk aktivitas pariwisata ini, masih jarang ditemui penelitian yang mempertanyakan efektivitas promosi pariwisata yang dibiayai negara. Hasil Dalam penelitiannya Williams dan Cartee menyajikan jumlah dana yang diterima dari pajak dibandingkan dengan dana yang dihabiskan negara untuk promosi pariwisata (Deskins & Seevers, 2010). Tetapi klaim tersebut baru berasumsi dan tidak menyiratkan hubungan langsung dan kausal antara promosi pariwisata negara dan kegiatan pariwisata.…”

Our focus is the effect of the tourism ministry budget to promote tourism on the growing number of tourists. We used regression models using data for 2011 through 2016 to identify the impact of tourism marketing budgets on the growth in tourist numbers. The results show that the effect of higher marketing on the growth of the number of tourists depends on the level of tourism marketing budget that is in the ministry of tourism. More specifically, the results show that tourism marketing budgets have a major effect in increasing the number of foreign tourists visiting. However, the effect is different if applied to national tourism marketing. For the national tourism marketing budget is less effect in increasing the number of domestic tourists.

“…One of the closest studies to the present article was published by Deskins and Seevers (2011): the authors investigated whether state expenditures were effective in terms of tourism promotion and general economic growth. These investigations were carried out in U.S. states and focused on regression models to identify the effect of tourism support; however, they did not deal with geographical issues.…”

Investigating the effectiveness of regional tourism support is always relevant in tourism research, especially in the European Union. However, in recent decades researchers and regional development actors concentrated predominantly on concrete financial-economic aspects based on the monitoring systems of the European integration. Based on this circumstance, the principal objective of this article is to offer various aspects on the research of the effectiveness of tourism subsidies, employing a spatial-geographical perspective. The article aims to determine whether there is a correlation between the presence of tourism attractions, existing tourism demand, and the regional allocation of the awarded subsidies. An elaborate evaluation approach was applied in a NUTS 2 region of Hungary, South Transdanubia. However, the method can be used in different regional levels as well since it is based on settlement-level data. Another claim of the article is that the demonstrated monitoring aspects can further contribute to a more effective regional policy approach concerning the evaluation of tourism developments.
