 Globalisation:

All countries and regions change into destinations

 Change in supply structure:

 - Leisure tourists globally accepted as part of "normal" local situation

 - Competition of destinations changes into competition of products

 - Tourism companies very big or very small

  - McDonaldization and Disneyfication of the world increases the need to construct the "otherness" of the destination / product
