Resumo

Este trabalho destaca-se pela aplicação pioneira de princípios de análise geopolítica ao domínio do turismo e pela sua gestão sustentável. Esta abordagem inovadora contribui para uma compreensão mais profunda dos impactos do turismo nos destinos e proporciona novas perspetivas para otimizar as políticas de gestão turística, ao mesmo tempo que promove a sustentabilidade nos destinos turísticos. O objetivo geral deste estudo é introduzir a utilização da análise integrada das dinâmicas políticas, económicas e sociais numa área geográfica definida – elementos característicos da análise geopolítica – para a identificação de desigualdades e desequilíbrios espaciais no contexto do turismo. Para tanto, o objetivo específico desta pesquisa é o uso experimental de sistemas de informação geográfica (SIG) para compreender as diferenças e variações nos serviços turísticos na província de Teerã (Irã), escolhida como estudo de caso. Neste artigo, foram examinados os principais recursos do turismo na província de Teerã, e os naturais (cordilheiras do norte da província) e histórico-culturais (a estrada real de Khorasan no leste e a antiga região de Rey no sul do província) foram identificadas capacidades. Foram extraídas zonas iguais e integradas com províncias vizinhas. Os resultados indicam que as fronteiras políticas apresentam fragilidades e danos em termos de gestão política do sector do turismo e terão consequências geopolíticas negativas para o sector do turismo.
