Abstract

At an academic level, the relationship between the concepts of tourism and quality of life has been developing with impetus since the beginning of the 21st century. To understand this relationship, Geography turns to aspects such as the reflection on the spatial dimension (for example, locations and distributions), the reference to concepts such as territory, place, landscape and region, and the application of methods such as direct observation. However, until now there have been no works written in Spanish that portray what has been done up to now. This contrasts with an environment such as the Anglo-Saxon and Portuguese, where there are indeed publications that verify bibliographic revisions and systematizations. Due to these approaches, the article aims to analyze the scientific literature that links tourism and quality of life, considering both theoretical and empirical contributions. It is intended to highlight the participation of Geography, to take a first step towards the construction of the state of the art corresponding to this line of research. Methodologically, a bibliographic review is applied and 36 investigations that arise from the investigation in the catalogs of the Electronic Library of the Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation of the Argentine Republic, the National System of Digital Repositories and the Latin American Federated Network of Repositories are systematized. Institutional Scientific Publications. Regarding the results, it is confirmed that the research based on the quality of life of the host populations is broader and more exhaustive than that centralized in the objective and subjective well-being of the visiting populations. Regarding Geography, some contributions are identified that respond to diverse perspectives, such as descriptive, quantitative, and critical.
