Vliv turismu na socio-ekonomický rozvoj Egypta
Rýznarová, Nikola
Tourism is the one of the notable and fastest growing industry in the world today. It presently accounts for about a good share of world capital investment. Egypt is regarded as a strong tourism trademark, offering a wide variety of tourism and sites that draw millions of tourists every year. The primary aim of this thesis is to investigate and analyse the impact of tourism on the Socio-economic development in Egypt which is measured by the economic growth GDP. This thesis used both quantitative and qualitative techniques in analysing the data to achieve the required results. A linear multiple regression model was used to estimate the relationship between the variables used in the model. Statistical reports like graphs, bar charts and others were used in reporting. The data used was time series ranging from 2000 to 2014 and it was obtained from the World Bank country indicators, the Egypt Statistical Service as well as the central bank of Egypt. From the panel data regression analysis, it was found that income from tourism was negatively related to the economic development in Egypt (GDP) and also, did not have any significant impact. This implies that, income from tourism in Egypt should be looked at since it has recorded a downward trend for some time now. This downward trend could be attributed to the Arab-Spring and the political instability in the region, thereby increasing the fear of safety among tourism especially from Europe and America. It is high time for Arab governments and their international partners to focus on the economy and on building inclusive institutions in order to safeguard security in the region if the full potential of tourism is to be realised.
