The Impact of Local Residents’ Behavior on Tourism
(école superieure de managment tlemcen, 2025-06) Adem Draou
This thesis examines the impact of local communities’ behavior on tourism in Algiers through a case study involving surveys and data analysis. The findings reveal complex patterns in residents’ perceptions and experiences of tourism, characterized by generally supportive yet cautious attitudes. Younger residents tend to show more openness toward tourists, while older groups exhibit more reserved views. Interaction levels vary widely, with those working in tourism-related roles engaging more frequently and positively. Although most residents deny significant cultural or environmental changes due to tourism, subtle shifts are acknowledged by those more exposed. Emotional responses range from civic pride to polite neutrality, reflecting both engagement and emotional distance. The study highlights how local behaviors serve as an influential yet often invisible framework shaping the overall tourism experience in Algiers. It also points to the importance of fostering community involvement to promote sustainable and meaningful tourism development.
