Abstract

El presente texto muestra un análisis comparado para cuatro países del Gran Caribe, a saber: Guatemala, Guyana, Jamaica y República Dominicana. El asunto que se aborda es la relación entre turismo y desarrollo económico, partiendo de una clasificación entre países poseedores de patrimonio según la UNESCO y países que no lo poseen. De esta forma, se comparan dos países pertenecientes al Caribe Insular (Jamaica y República Dominicana) y dos pertenecientes al Caribe continental (Guatemala y Guyana), haciendo también comparaciones agregadas entre países con patrimonio (Guatemala y República Dominicana) y países sin patrimonio (Guyana y Jamaica). A través del análisis de la literatura referente al tema del turismo, se logra una perspectiva general de la importancia del mismo en la economía actual, tanto global como del Caribe, y con el análisis de información cuantitativa se muestran las aproximaciones a indicadores de desarrollo económico para los países estudiados. ****** The present text shows a comparative analysis of four Great Caribbean’s countries, to know: Guatemala, Guyana, Jamaica and Dominican Republic. The issue treated is the relationship between tourism and economic development based in a classification of these countries like heritage owner and no-owner by UNESCO.

Through literature analysis concerning tourism, is achieved a general perspective about importance of it in actual economy, not only global but in the Caribbean, and with quantitative information analysis show approximations to economic development indicators for studied countries.
