POLANCO LOPEZ DE MESA, Jorge Andrés. Determiners of an organizational system network for the rural development of tourism in Antioquia (Colombia). Cuad. Desarro. Rural [online]. 2011, vol.8, n.67, pp.251-274. ISSN 0122-1450.

The organizational system associated with the development of rural tourism in the department of Antioquia tends to establish informal networks. The purpose of this paper is to study the flow of information and the interdependence between stakeholders in Eastern and Southwestern networks, with the aim of understanding their impact on governance as a condition of development. Social Network Analysis is adopted in this paper. The results show two phenomena: first, information can flow faster in the Eastern network thanks to its density. Second, it is in the Southwestern network where public-private relations and public non-governmental actions determine the governance of the network.
