Abstract: Over the last 50 years, globalization has developed greatly. Its pressure has a great impact upon the industrial areas. The current paper focuses mainly on the main stakeholders within the tourism industry. We thought it would be important for us to understand what globalization really means, especially nowadays. Therefore, sustainable development represents the key-concept of this theoretic approach. A briefly review is given as well as the evolution of tourism in terms of globalization. Questions such as: what the private and public sector should do in order to improve the global situation? Which European institutions are responsible for implementing sustainable development and consequently, sustainable tourism? Would the networking alliances apply to a better management? are about to be emphasized.
