Tourism and town planning in Catalonia

Abstract

The coastal tourist areas of Spain have seen open conflict between planners and the public over the flood of tourist developments. The Costa Brava in the region of Catalonia is chosen for the purpose of this study which looks at the effects of the Land Use law of 1976 requiring all municipalities to prepare General Plans. The failure of plans which attempted to severely restrict tourist growth, and this paper's conclusions, that the expansion of tourist pressure into new areas may create new conditions, suggest a regional approach to policy.
