Abstract

La investigacion existente sobre el crimen y el turismo ha indicado una relacion negativa entre estos dos conceptos, donde el crimen aparece como un factor influyente en la limitacion de los flujos turisticos. Aunque los turistas han enfocado en repetidas ocasiones la importancia de la seguridad en sus viajes, se presenta una relacion paradojicamente positiva entre el turismo y el crimen actual, donde la cultura de las pandillas es la atraccion principal de la visita. Este estudio de caso se centra en “LA Gang Tours”, una organizacion sin animo de lucro que se centra en la creacion de oportunidades de organizacion en Los Angeles, a traves de la industria del turismo. La intencion de este trabajo es representar esta atraccion alternativa de turismo y su intento de reinterpretar una amenaza organizativa como una oportunidad de cambio social dentro tanto de estos barrios como a su alrededor.
