What is Political-Legislative Sub-System

The tourism sector constitutes a part of “tourism, leisure and communication” macro-sector. The companies that belong to this sector run their activity in various areas, however, the present contribution refers only to some of them, that is to hospitality and catering, travel agencies and entertainment. In this context, current research has therefore two objectives: 1) assessment if the tourism sector can be considered as an example of entrepreneurship and growth for Italian companies; 2) identification of key drivers within the tourism consumption trend. Thanks to a qualitative and quantitative method, it emerged that the tourism sector can be considered as an example of entrepreneurship and growth for Italian companies. It is justified by the features characterizing a certain region, such as climate, nature, culture and tradition that are in harmony with the companies' heritage. In addition, the sub-systems introduced in the present research have big influence on the inputs which in the same time impact the companies operating in the tourism sector.
