PINHEIRO, Wesley Moreira  e  ROSSI, George Bedinelli. BRAZIL AS OBJECT OF STUDY ON TOURISM IN THE INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH CONTEXT. Tur., Visão e Ação [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.1, pp.6-28. ISSN 1983-7151.  http://dx.doi.org/10.14210/rtva.v18n1.p06-28.

From 2000 to 2014, the volume of international tourists increased by 68%, according to data from the WTO. The implications of this growth are of interest both for market studies and for students. The overall aim of this article is to investigate how Brazil appears in studies of international publications on tourism, using Tourism Management as the sample. For this purpose, it discusses the role of the country as a focus of research interest of international production, whether as the main actor or an element of contextualization. The methodology used in this study focuses on a meta-analysis of the content of published articles, based on the variables and analytical techniques of the studies of Matos and Henrique (2006); Melo and Andreassi (2010); and Souza, Roglio, and Takahashi (2011). The main result of this research indicates that Brazil is still little explored as an object of study, and is often only mentioned in a wider context. In the final considerations, we discuss the role of Brazil in the field of Tourism and Administration, proposing some research problems to prompt interest among Brazilian and foreign researchers on subjects of potential relevance to the country that are still little explored, especially in the field of international tourism studies.
