The method used is based on the difference in difference technique applied to the 1991 and 2000 Census microdata. The results suggest social advances following from poverty relief based on income - where the benefits are distributed, generally, in a relatively equal manner between the native and migrant population. There is a relative deterioration in the sanitary situation, which consists of a very serious problem in the mid- and long-term, whose costs are mostly borne by the native population. Therefore, maintaining the natural capital is the main aspect that distances Porto Seguros tourism supply from the concept of sustainability. The article also relies on difference in difference estimators to assess the impacts of local public policies related to the sector. 2012 artículo científico 0034-7612 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=241022802012 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2410 Revista de Administração Pública - RAP application/pdf Fundação Getulio Vargas Revista de Administração Pública - RAP (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.46 |
