Description
Summary:The point of this article is to understand how actions directed by a central government can undermine policies, sub -national programs and projects related to local development in the tourism context. In this sense, the main objective is to analyze the interference of a national project of tourism regionalization in the planned actions of subnational governments in the touristic cities (destinations) in Brazil. Theoretically, issues have been addressed related to Tourism Management and Public Policies. We conducted documental and field research in Brazil, specifically 16 Minas Gerais State touristic destinations, whose data were processed using the content analysis technique. It was discovered that the analyzed national project contributed to the destabilization of a current state policy and centered on regionalization, presenting an intergovernmentalism problem, with weaknesses in coordination and planning.
