An analysis of Spanish Tourism Municipalities efficiency
Abstract
The objective of this study is to know which exogenous factors condition the efficiency of the municipalities with tourist orientation. This study is one of the few publications based on the efficiency of tourism municipalities. Unlike most of the research that assesses municipal efficiency in general, it is believed that this document contributes to related literature by offering ideas to relatively inefficient tourism municipalities about improving efficiency.
