Abstract
Tourism is no longer just a social phenomenon of interest to some individuals and groups only. But has turned into recreational activities with economic, social, cultural and environmental dimensions, due to the influx of hundreds of millions of tourists to various countries and tourist regions, which encouraged many countries to work on developing tourism and converting it into a real industry and a tool for economic and social development.
The tourism sector in Turkey has competitive capabilities that enable it to enter the international trade arena in the era of globalization and the liberalization of services trade. But the natural resources and historical sites that Turkey enjoys constitutes a natural competitive advantage for it, and despite this, its role is doubling in light of recent developments in an increasing world. In it the competitiveness of international tourism that depends on technological innovations and information technology such as the Internet, electronic commerce and modern means of communication. Based on the foregoing. The research hypothesis that the tourism sector depends on the surrounding environment, whether political, economic or social, and this affects it, which is reflected in its impact on economic growth, negatively or positively. To verify and test the validity of the hypothesis in light of the information and data that it will obtain, the research adopted the quantitative approach as well as the method of theoretical analysis of the state of Turkey as a model for the period 1990-2018. Perhaps one of the most prominent results of this research is that the explanatory variables adopted in the model had a positive impact on economic growth for the state of Turkey.
As for the most important proposals that came out of the research, it is to increase the investments allocated to tourism spending in order to increase tourism revenues and then increase the cash reserves of hard currencies for the State of Turkey.
