tourism - an activity largely based on pleasant experiences - is fundamentally incompatible with conflict, war, violence, and terrorism. the twenty - first century has so far been statistically the most peaceful one, numerous violent conflicts and comprehensive media coverage have brought dreadful events into the cities and homes of many people. for example, according to the institute for economics and peace, the number of countries experiencing a terrorist attack in 2015 amounted to ninety - two, with 29, people dying during these terrorist events. when wars and other sorts of conflict are added, the number goes up by a high degree. while these horrible events are important issues on their own, it remains to be seen how they affect tourism. recent crisis events in popular tourist destinations - for example, attacks in tunisia, turkey, france, and spain - might shift tourism demand toward places which are perceived to be safer. while the literature on the nexus between violent conflict and tourism is (unfortunately) growing, the empirical evidence on the channels of these adverse effects is scarce. 1. the authors of this passage would most likely agree that write a short prediction (1 - 5 words). use the passage to figure out what the correct answer should be and write it here. then hit the \submit and unlock answer choices\ button to unlock
