Tourism, Ghetto tourism, Slum tourismAbstract
Changes in desires and the needs of the people emerge, depending on the technological, political, economic and cultural changes and developments that have taken place over time. In terms of tourism, this change increases the desire of people to see and experience what is new and untried. As a natural consequence of this situation, besides the attractiveness of tourist destinations tourists interest in the deprived areas, called slums, suburbs, ghettos, which are named as the "other side" of these destinations has begun to increase and it has enabled the emergence of a tourism model called “slum tourism” today. Growing interest in slum areas lead to profit-oriented tour operators organize the slum tours which were organized by non-govermantal organizations in the beggining. This situation has brought various discussions with itself. In this study which is based on literature review, the emergence of slum tourism concept, slum tourism destinations are mentioned and it has been tried to find out whether the solution of the slums tourism is a solution or a problem by evaluating positive and negative opinions about slum tourism.
