O direito do turismo e as estruturas organizacionais do setor

Abstract

This article aims to introduce the reader to the area of law known as emerging tourism law and organizational structures that regulate the sector internationally and nationally. The topic under discussion is introduced through a brief history, followed by the technical definition of the term tourism and its importance to society. After these preliminary considerations we analyze a novel field of legal science that seeks to regulate the activities relevant to the tourism industry in order to establish rules to improve the relationship between consumers tourist, companies that offering this type of service, such as hotels, travel agents and airlines, and the government. It was found in this investigation, that the tourism law is a branch still little explored in the current legal situation, but it is nonetheless important because it regulates different valued facts that focus on human behavior.
