La gestión cooperativa del turismo en Brasil. El caso de la cooperativa paranaense de turismo.

The study of management in tourism cooperatives presented in this paper uses a prospective structural analysis matrix to consider factors in the external and internal environment. The study attempts to identify variables that affect the cooperative management of tourism, using the Cooperativa Paranaense de Turismo as a case study, and contemplates both the particular and general view provided by the prospective analysis and by the professionals involved in the study. The results suggest that the cooperative studied is decisively influenced by the variables that involve the human and management aspects of the organization and by the need to work, modernize and adapt to the laws and regulations concerning this sector.
