[en] EDUCATION AND TOURISM IN THE STATE OF RIO DE JANEIRO: A WIDE-SCREEN VIEW OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION / [pt] EDUCAÇÃO E TURISMO NO ESTADO DO RIO DE JANEIRO: UM OLHAR PANORÂMICO DO ENSINO SUPERIOR

VALERIA MARIA DE SOUZA LIMA 28 November 2003 (has links)
[pt] O fenômeno do turismo tem apresentado índices bastante promissores de crescimento em todo o mundo e parece poder contribuir para o desenvolvimento sociocultural sustentável em lugares turísticos. Contudo, envolve inter-relações complexas e as suas imbricações com outros campos provocam grandes tensões. Um desses retesamentos é dado pela aproximação dos setores produtivos da educação nos anos 70-90, no sentido de exigir a formação altamente qualificada de novos profissionais e que, no caso do turismo, motivou a criação e o aumento progressivo no Brasil dos cursos de graduação naquela especialidade. O presente trabalho mostra algumas das contradições presentes nesse cenário, abordando as vantagens e desvantagens competitivas nacionais e fluminenses como destinos turísticos, bem como oferece um panorama dos cursos de Graduação em Turismo no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. A investigação toma por base os depoimentos de coordenadores e professores desses cursos e busca observar, em lugar indiscutivelmente turístico, as tendências da formação desse novo profissional como agente capaz de intervir na realidade. / [en] Tourism, as a phenomenon, has featured quite promising figures throughout the world and seems to be able to contribute to the social, cultural, and sustainable development of tourist-oriented places. However, it involves complex inter and co-relations with other fields, which provokes great tensions. One of these nodes of tension is caused by the proximity with other productive sectors of the educational field between the 70's and the 90's, as the latter demanded highly qualified, graduated professionals, which, as far as tourism is concerned, caused the creation and the progressive development, in Brazil, of degree courses in such specialty. This work is focused on some contradictory aspects regarding this environment, assessing national and local (Rio de Janeiro) competitive advantages and disadvantages as tourist destinations. The research was based on the interviewing of professors and University-level course coordinators, and it registers, in an undeniably tourist state, the tendencies in the universities that lead in the formation of this new tourism professional as an agent capable of intervening in reality.
