Resumo

The political and economic changes in EU transition countries have brought the attention in this area, making it a desirable destination for an important part of tourists, both in Europe and other parts of the world. We study the differences among the countries and fifty regions, considering the importance of resident and non-residents tourism in each of them. Through this analysis we would like to point those countries, and regions, which are already in a good position, such as the Czech Republic and Hungary, comparing them with those others which offer an important potential to develop this sector.
