- (1)
- The most productive educational institution is the University of Guadalajara, Mexico, with ten affiliations by ten different authors.
- (2)
- The journal that has received the most papers is PASOS indexed in the WoS Emerging Source Citation Index and the journals “Investigaciones Geográficas” and “Investigaciónes Turísticas”, which are both indexed in Scopus and particularly the latter also in Emerging Source Citation Index of WoS.
- (3)
- In both databases, the Social Sciences research area stood out as the area with the highest number of articles indexed in both WoS and Scopus.
- (4)
- Finally, in the keyword analysis, the word “tourism” appears most frequently in WoS, with 14 repetitions. In Scopus the term “cultural tourism” stands out, with four repetitions, although “tourism” also appears in the same position.
- (5)
- Furthermore, in the analysis of coverage and overlap between both databases, an overlap between both databases of 21.15% is observed (11 articles are indexed in both databases) and a degree of singularity of 76.09% in WoS, which indicates that this database provides a better coverage of the research in the context of Magic Towns of Mexico.

1 | Seizing community participation in sustainable development: Pueblos Mágicos of Mexico Clausen and Gyimothy [40] | 17 | 4.25 | 14 | 3.50 | They demonstrate how different groups bargain on behalf of the ‘community’ and how they seize the opportunity to promote different development priorities. In particular, they address the role of a North American migrant community in shaping sustainable tourism development as cultural brokers, social entrepreneurs and mediators of market knowledge. The paper criticizes the notion of homogenous local communities as an instrumental condition of sustainable and participatory development. |
2 | Tequila: magical center, traditional town. Heritage or privatization? Hernández [23] | 9 | 0.82 | 4 | 0.36 | Through the analytical readings of the cultural landscape of Tequila’s historical downtown, in Jalisco Mexico, we can notice the transformation of specific perimeters of a town similar to many others in Latin America, which gradually—and due to the economic and political intervention of both international organisms and the Mexican government—has turned from a rural area into an important tourist destination in Western Mexico and a referent in the construction of a new national identity, linked to successful commodities within the context of globalization. |
3 | Ecotourism as a path to sustainable development in an isolated Magic Town: The case study of La Trampa, Mexico Coronado, Rosas, Cerón [41] | 5 | 2.5 | - | - | The authors conclude that ecotourism is a possible alternative to highly marginalized localities within Magic Town municipalities and would be able to expand the benefits engendered by the program. Ecotourism can therefore represent a new option for tourists visiting marginalized communities in Mexico. |
4 | Territorial dynamics of cultural tourism in Izamal, Yucatan, Mexico Alvarado-Sizzo [22] | 3 | 0.75 | - | - | Tourist attractions in Izamal are associated with its history and culture. Despite the great potential of territorial resources for tourism, Izamal is contesting with other close destinations such as Merida, Valladolid, Chichen Itza and Cancun. The nearness to these sites leaves Izamal as a secondary destination limited to 1-day visits. Regarding the global context, the town can be considered an international destination visited by travelers coming from the five continents. |
5 | Sustainable tourism and social entrepreneurship. The magic town of Tequila, Mexico Manuel Saiz-Alvarez [42] | - | - | 3 | 1.50 | There are high levels of poverty in Tequila, although they are lower than in non-Agave locations. Excessive tequila protection prevents the development of other distilled beverages within the region. The production and marketing of tequila contributes to the sustainability of gastronomic tourism and nature in the tequila region and Tequila is a crucial piece in the Tourism Policy of Mexico by 2040, which guarantees its continuity and prevents the strengthening of tequila substitute beverages. |
6 | Community Development through the Empowerment of Indigenous Women in Cuetzalan Del Progreso, Mexico Duran-Diaz, Armenta-Ramirez, Kurjenoja, Schumacher [43] | - | - | 2 | 2.00 | Despite an inclusive legal and institutional framework, weak policy implementation and certain federal programs tend to segregate Indigenous communities. Mechanisms such as cultural tourism and inclusive land management programs, capacity building initiatives, and female associations have proven useful for empowering women and have had positive socioeconomic impacts on the community. This research concluded that female Indigenous associations are a tool to empower rural women, grant them tenure security, strengthen their engagement in decision making, and consolidate them as key stakeholders in community development. |
7 | Tourism, pottery and women’s work in the Magical Town of Metepec, Mexico Vizcaino-Suárez, Serrano-Barquín, Cruz-Jiménez, Pastor-Alfonso [44] | - | - | 2 | 0.67 | Even though the majority of artisans in Metepec are male, women have adopted essential tasks in pottery production and participate actively in the sale of crafts for the tourism market. Women’s work is not always visible or socially recognized due to the prevailing gender dynamics and the differences in power within the family and community contexts. This research contributes to the body of knowledge on tourism and gender in Mexico and aims to make women’s contributions visible in local tourism contexts. |
8 | Policy networks, elites and governance. A conceptual framework for a case study in tourism De la Rosa, Cruz, Castillo [45] | - | - | 2 | 0.50 | This paper contributes to the theoretical discussion related to the assumptions of public policy networks, the elite’s theory and governance. Together they support an empirical approach to a case study: the Magical Towns Program in Mexico. This dissertation challenges the argument that governance dynamics may be generated even under certain conditions (nepotism, corruption, favoring private interests) among actors linked to tourism and this federal program, which relate a policy network. |
9 | Divided over Tourism: Zapotec Responses to Mexico’s ‘Magical Villages Program’ Gross [46] | 1 | 0.11 | 2 | 0.22 | This article discusses local reactions to the Magical Villages Program and the villagers’ diverse perceptions of the impact of tourism on local culture and identity. These perceptions tend to be polarized and fall into two clearly distinguishable camps. Some villagers associate tourism with material gains and increased employment opportunities. Others, however, perceive it as a threat to communal intimacy and local ways of life, and accuse it of increasing inequality in the village. Such polarization of approaches reflects, at least partly, the pre-existing divisions and hierarchies in the village. Similarly, to some of the major anthropological approaches to the impact of tourism on host communities, especially in Latin America, the local discourse on tourism and tourists in Capulálpam centers on the notions of development and destruction. |
