Abstract

Tourism presents itself as a viable path for regional and local development in Brazil from a sustainability perspective, combining the complexity of ecological, social and economic contexts. Within this conception, part of the Amazonian experiences showed that the scenario associated with environmental degradation, irregular economic exploitation and institutional problems can be mitigated through the relationship between public, private and civil society organizations, by the promotion of assertive public policies and through actions related to sustainable tourism. From this panorama, the objective of this research is to know how public policies contribute to sustainable tourism in the Amazon region through scientific production on the theme published in the signed collection of the CAPES Periodicals Portal. The article is a systematic review of the literature, based on the PRISMA protocol (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta), and the research was characterized as exploratory-descriptive. The main findings are the little, or almost invisible, scientific production available in the databases researched and that the construction of public policies for tourism in the Amazon region lacks a readjustment that includes the actors that are part of the process and that also present a clear methodology for evaluating such policies.
