Methodology- In order to accomplish this objective, we utilize both the static panel data approach and dynamic generalized method of moments (GMM) techniques to examine the impacts of explanatory variables on the dependent variable. Findings- Our findings indicate that specialization in tourism per se or relying just on the public expenditure may have a significant negative effect on GDP per capita growth in developing countries.

Conclusion- Contrary to consensus and expectations, our estimation results reveal the need for some structural changes or reforms both in public spending and tourism-led growth strategies in the long run.
