Resumo: This study aimed to examine the causal connection between geopolitical risks and Turkey's international tourist arrivals. The causality was tested between risk indices and foreign visitor demand on monthly data. Turkey was selected because many geopolitical risks had occurred in the last two decades and has had a terror risk named PKK for many years. The geopolitical risk indices were created from news based on the issues. The causality was tested using Toda-Yamamoto and asymmetric causality was tested using the Hatemi-J method in the period of 1998-2019. Findings of the study showed that there is unidirectional causality between global risks and tourist arrivals to Turkey, and bi-directional causality between domestic risk and tourist arrivals. Hatemi-J test results support the findings that the causality from positive shocks of risks causes negative shocks of tourist arrivals and vice versa. Herewith, it can be said that tourism demand to Turkey, in the context of foreign visitors, was affected by global or domestic geopolitical risks. This may be a sign that Turkey has a tourism-led terrorism problem targeting Turkey's tourism and economy.

La causalidad se probó entre los índices de riesgo y la demanda de visitantes extranjeros con datos mensuales. Turquía fue seleccionada porque se habían producido muchos riesgos geopolíticos en las últimas dos décadas y ha tenido un riesgo terrorista llamado PKK durante muchos años. Los índices de riesgo geopolítico se crearon a partir de noticias basadas en los problemas. La causalidad fue probada usando Toda-Yamamoto y la causalidad asimétrica fue probada usando el método Hatemi-J en el período 1998-2019. Los resultados del estudio mostraron que existe una causalidad unidireccional entre los riesgos globales y las llegadas de turistas a Turquía, y una causalidad bidireccional entre el riesgo nacional y las llegadas de turistas. Los resultados de la prueba Hatemi-J apoyan los hallazgos de que la causalidad de los choques positivos de riesgos causa choques negativos en las llegadas de turistas y viceversa. A continuación, se puede decir que la demanda turística de Turquía, en el contexto de los visitantes extranjeros, se vio afectada por riesgos geopolíticos globales o nacionales. Esto puede ser una señal de que Turquía tiene un problema de terrorismo liderado por el turismo que tiene como objetivo el turismo y la economía de Turquía.Este estudo teve como objetivo examinar a conexão causal entre os riscos geopolíticos e as chegadas de turistas internacionais na Turquia. A causalidade foi testada entre índices de risco e demanda de visitantes estrangeiros em dados mensais. A Turquia foi selecionada porque muitos riscos geopolíticos ocorreram nas últimas duas décadas e há muitos anos o risco de terrorismo chamado PKK. Os índices de risco geopolítico foram criados a partir de notícias baseadas nas questões. A causalidade foi testada usando Toda-Yamamoto e causalidade assimétrica foi testada usando o método Hatemi-J no período de 1998-2019. Os resultados do estudo mostraram que existe uma causalidade unidirecional entre os riscos globais e as chegadas de turistas à Turquia, e uma causalidade bidirecional entre o risco doméstico e as chegadas de turistas. Os resultados do teste Hatemi-J apóiam as conclusões de que a causalidade de choques positivos de riscos causa choques negativos nas chegadas de turistas e vice-versa. Com isto, pode-se dizer que a demanda turística para a Turquia, no contexto de visitantes estrangeiros, foi afetada por riscos geopolíticos globais ou domésticos. Isso pode ser um sinal de que a Turquia tem um problema de terrorismo impulsionado pelo turismo que visa o turismo e a economia turcos.Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora/UFJF2021-10-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/abet/article/view/3423710.5281/zenodo.5771032Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticos; ABET, Vol. 11, Single Issue (2021): Current Topics in Tourism and Thematic Section: “Tourism in times of COVID-19” Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticos; ABET, Vol. 11, Single Issue (2021): Current Topics in Tourism and Thematic Section: “Tourism in times of COVID-19” Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticos; ABET, Vol. 11, Single Issue (2021): Current Topics in Tourism and Thematic Section: “Tourism in times of COVID-19” 2238-2925reponame:Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticosinstname:Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)instacron:UFJFenghttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/abet/article/view/34237/23520Copyright (c) 2021 Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticos - ABEThttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBayraktaroğlu, EnginGürsoy, SametGünay, FatihKarakuş, Yusuf2024-03-22T21:22:24Zoai:periodicos.ufjf.br:article/34237Revistahttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/abet/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/abet/oairevista.abet@ufjf.edu.br || thiago.pimentel@ufjf.edu.br2238-29252238-2925opendoar:2024-03-22T21:22:24Anais Brasileiros de Estudos Turísticos - Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)false
