RESTMA - Revista de Economía, Sociedad, Turismo y Medio Ambiente

As in other sectors of the Spanish economy, tourism is neither stranger to crisis nor much less it is immune to its effects. However, this article proposes, among others, a powerful idea for reflection on hard times: the crisis may affect the tourism sector at two speeds or put another way, we can identify those nuclei recipients of our territory that would leave the crisis before others. And this, to be reasonably certain, would push a strategic design of aid and support made by the Public Sector -at its different levels- of face to adjust these various output rhythms.

Keywords: Tourism, Crisis, source markets, nuclei receptors.
