Resumo: This research aims to describe Barcelona's evolution as a tourist destination, analyse the impact of tourism on certain neighbourhoods and examine the sectors -administrative, social and economic- involved in urban development during the period 2005-2016. Used as case studies are two ex-industrial neighbourhoods: Poblenou and Sants. The working hypothesis: a decentralisation of tourism in Barcelona has led to social tension and community protests in neighbourhoods with little prior experience of tourism. The methodology is based on statistical data and in-depth interviews.
