Has the tourism-led growth hypothesis been validated? A literature review (2016, methodology): “Furthermore, a bi-directional Granger causality (i.e. tourism Granger-causes growth and vice versa) is assessed for the following destinations: Australia (Corrie, Stoeckl, & Chaiechi, 2013), Jamaica (Ahamefule, 2012; Amaghionyeodiwe, 2012; Ghartey, 2013), Aruba (Ridderstaat et al., 2013), Barbados (”

Revisiting the Tourism-Led Economic Growth Hypothesis: The Case of China (2018, background): “This bilateral causality has been found for developing countries via a panel data analysis (Samimi, Sadeghi, and Sadeghi 2011), and with some countries like Barbados (Lorde, Francis, and Drakes 2011), Malaysia (Lean and Tang 2010), Mauritius (Durbarry 2004), South Korea (Chen and Chiou 2009), Spain ”
Small sample evidence on the tourism-led growth hypothesis in Lebanon (2014, result): “The strong Granger causality results suggest that there is bi-directional Granger causality between tourism and economic growth.5 Overall, our results support the findings of Kim et al. (2006), Brida and Risso (2009), Katircioglu (2009) and Lean and Tang (2010).”
A literature review on the tourism-led-growth hypothesis (2010, unknown): “However, a long run bi-directional Granger causality between tourism and GDP has only been found for Malaysia, Malta, Taiwan, Turkey, Spain and, via a panel data analysis, Latin American countries.”
