Resumo: The thesis that tourism is a "new science" is the subject of this paper. Supported by Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of scientific field, the authors analyse "scientification of tourism" as proposed by Jafar Jafari. The foundings suggest that tourism is an embryonic scientific field aiming to legitimacy. The intense use of economic and management jargon appears as a strategy to legimate the field, so that the identity between tourism and industry is taken for granted. This identity is then scrutinized, revealing the entailed limits to the project of "scientification". Finally, as a counterpoint to the dominant discourse, the authors suggest that the road to "scientification" should be paved by a critical dialogical perspective.

Tomando como referencial teórico o conceito de campo científico, em Pierre Bourdieu, o artigo analisa a proposta de "cientifização do turismo" apresentada por Jafar Jafari, para evidenciar que o turismo é um campo científico em formação. O problema da legitimação desse novo campo é discutido, e se identifica, como sintoma da necessidade de legitimação, a recorrência a signos da economia e dos negócios, consubstanciados num discurso dominante: o turismo-indústria. A crítica aos fundamentos da identidade entre turismo e indústria revela os limites de seu potencial de cientificidade, levando ao impasse o projeto de "cientifização". Finalmente, como contraponto ao discurso dominante, os autores sugerem situar a "cientifização" do turismo noutro contexto, esboçando uma proposta crítica e dialógica, visando aderir maior autonomia ao novo campo.Escola Brasileira de Administração Pública e de Empresas da Fundação Getulio Vargas2007-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/5048Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 5 No. 4 (2007); 1 a 18Cadernos EBAPE.BR; Vol. 5 Núm. 4 (2007); 1 a 18Cadernos EBAPE.BR; v. 5 n. 4 (2007); 1 a 181679-3951reponame:Cadernos EBAPE.BRinstname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/article/view/5048/3782Meira, Fabio BittencourtMeira, Mônica Birchler Vanzellainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-10-10T17:10:57Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/5048Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebapehttps://periodicos.fgv.br/cadernosebape/oaicadernosebape@fgv.br||cadernosebape@fgv.br1679-39511679-3951opendoar:2024-05-13T09:59:25.485170Cadernos EBAPE.BR - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true
