Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mass tourism primarily influences the demand for specific types of consumer services related to the tourism industry itself, such as hospitality and leisure services. However, it does not broadly shape the overall landscape of consumer services in the way that changing household work patterns, regulatory frameworks, relative prices of imports, and the distribution of purchasing power do. These factors have a more systemic impact on the variety, availability, and nature of consumer services across the board.
