The regional geographical space of tourism in Spain: bases for the interpretation of the territorial tourism system

The regional geographical space of tourism in Spain: bases for the interpretation of the territorial tourism system aThroughout this research we approach the sociological explanation of the tourist activities that are developed in the context of the state "apparatus" of Spain, from the regional singularity. The interpretation of a reality becomes relatively important in which the interpretation, from Article 2 of the Constitution, currently in force, of the Nation, Nationalities, Regions, particularism and differential facts stands out. Relationship or political-legal-social relational complex (conceptually materialized as a politically organized social community, that is, as a State), not even, when contrasted differentially and reciprocally, can it ignore the primary purpose to which this relationship aspires, which is none other than to consolidate (rather than achieve), a objectual unit that society, territorially established and politically governed, independently of any other supreme power, recognizes referentially with full sovereignty (with total residential settlement of power in the element “people”), that is, with the State. Tourist activities are greatly influenced by the fact that in the Spanish state model the fruitful territorial division of the nation (understood in its double facet, cultural and legal, where the first refers to a set of individuals related to each other through ethnic, linguistic, geographical, historical, or religious ties, among others, and, in which the second reference refers to the set of citizens subject to a contractual relationship or social control such as the Constitution or the established legal system), has served to superimpose, in the peninsular geographical space, a set of territorial entities resulting from of the collective national will (on which the nation is based in its legal sense), and of the sentimental and identity bond.
