Abstract

The rural world, especially in the West, is subject to processes of mobility and neorurality that cannot be ignored when studying community-based tourism (CBT). These processes not only question the community understood as an isolated and closed reality, but explain the increasing prominence of outsider residents in rural development. In this article, through an ethnographic case study conducted in Alájar (Western Andalusia), we analyzed the participation of outsider residents in CBT, its contribution to the development of tourist activities as well as its connections with the external market. From here we can reflect more generally on the nature of CBT and the role of external influence in its development in heterogeneous local societies.
