Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

For a long time the question of the location of economicactivities was reduced to the location of producers, the location of consumers being considered as a variable of secondary importanceHowever, with the increase of tourism mobilities, people tend to consume outside of the place they are used to living and in the future the presence or the absence of these temporary consumers could be an important stake for local economies. This paper aims at defining theses stakes by measuring these displacements of consumption between French areas.
