Abstract :This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of published studies related to tourism growth. Based on the titles of publications with the phrase \`tourism growth\` in the title, it was scanned from the Web of Science database. The research findings are limited to the Web of Science database since this is the preferred database. The scanning process did not include any field filtering; therefore a total of 941 publications were found. The source countries of the publications were found to be primarily China, the United States of America, and Turkey. Tourism development, economic growth, and tourism growth are the three most frequently used keywords. Eastern Mediterranean University has the highest average number of citations, while Turkey has the highest number of studies and citations. Furthermore, studies often employ the panel co-integration method. Tourism and economic growth do not appear to have a clear relationship. Based on the sample and time period selected, the findings vary. The study recommends the use of regime-switching models in this area, apart from cointegration and causality analysis.
