11 The Multiplier Effect chart on page (pg. 45)
Tourism Multiplier Effect. Tourism not only creates jobs in the tertiary sector, it also encourages growth in the primary and secondary sectors of industry. This is known as the multiplier effect which in its simplest form is how many times money spent by a tourist circulates through a country's economy.

12 Positive Economic Impacts of Tourism
Generation of Foreign Exchange Earnings Tourism can generate jobs directly through hotels, restaurants, nightclubs, taxis, and souvenir sales for example. Tourism can also indirectly generate jobs through the supply of goods and services needed by tourism-related businesses. Money is earned from tourism through informal employment (street vendors, informal guides) Positive side of employment is money is returned to local economy, and has a greater multiplier effect as it is spent over and over again.

13 Negative Economic Impacts of Tourism
Tourism development can cost the government and local taxpayers a great deal of money. Local population can suffer as increasing demand for basic services and goods from tourists will often cause price rises and lead to inflation. Tourism development can increase the price of buildings and land Remote areas can suffer from out-migration and lack of investment If destination has a narrow economic base it stands the risk of going into serious decline.

18 Globalization Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among the people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology

19 Commodification Commodification is the transformation of goods, services, ideas and not least people into commodities or objects of trade. A commodity at its most basic, according to Arjun Appadurai, is "any thing intended for exchange," or any object of economic value. WHY IT MATTERS: Commodification makes an asset easier to trade makes the market more liquid. In some cases, this can add volatility to the price of the commoditized entity, but in other cases it can spur economic activity.
