The “Public Good” as a Benefit to Tourism
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing public infrastructure’s influence on promoting tourism. In "The Wealth of Nations," Adam Smith discussed the responsibility of government to erect and maintain those structures and systems that would be too costly for individuals or groups of individuals. Smith’s point was that the structure itself may not be too costly in terms of initial outlay, but that it would be difficult or impossible for those responsible for the structure’s construction to recoup their investment. The paper uses the example of Sydney’s Opera House as a “draw” for Australian tourism and the benefits that other areas and private business receives as a result. Bibliography lists 1 source.

[ send me this paper ]

The purpose of the desired growth is to lift the people of these nations from the abject poverty in which so many live. “From misery to poverty” is the aim that international financial institutions (IFIs) have had in taking on their “consulting” roles to the governments of poor nations. But as spending more than is available is not sustainable at the household level, neither is it sustainable at the macroeconomic level. Many of these nations carry such crushing debt that they seek to borrow additional funds merely to pay the interest on the loans they already have. The purpose here is to explore at least two alternatives to hopeless national debt. The paper discusses the HIPC Initiative for debt forgiveness and issues related to building an export-driven economy. Bibliography lists 23 sources.
