Abstract
The article presents modes of foreign tourism practiced by people living in conditions of shortage. The causes of scarcity of goods are characterized; and ways of making money during “tourist departures” for work and of importing scarce products are presented. Poland offers the context for a discussion on this phenomenon, including its scale of development and its effects on increasing foreign-currency deposits in Polish banks. Special attention is paid to difficulties in obtaining data resulting from the state of statistical records relating to personal income and private trade; and, in the light of this specific form of tourism, suggestions are made regarding possible revisions in Jafari's “system of tourism.”
