TY - JOUR AB - Discusses the profile for a global intervention which would lead to an effective and virtuous circle of longā€term development for the Algarve Region, and argues that the seasonal nature of the tourism industry linked to school holidays and the excellent climate aggravates, as a general rule, the already existing fragility of its territory structure, provoking serious ecological imbalances. Based on the existing panorama, a need for a response, which should be corrective rather than preventive, is suggested.
