抄録

This paper presents a research on the impact that tourism promotion could have on the economy, the environment, and the society of the Isawa community. The impact that the formation and expansion of tourist spa business could have on the community is focused and analyzed, based on the case example of Isawa town in Yamanashi Prefecture in this research. Each impact is analyzed from the following three aspects - first, change in the industrial structure, employment effect, tax impact and conditions of the population growth related to them all in economic terms, secondly, the natural environment and traffic problems as aspects of the environment, and finally, crimes, degeneration of public morals, the mental and physical health of citizens, and public health from a social standpoint. Using the framework which Butler advocated, I evaluate the reaction of residents to the impacts arising from development of the Isawa tourist spa.
