Resumo(s)
This paper identifies Madeira Island’s growth stage in accordance
with Butler’s life cycle model. Life cycle analysis is pursued using
an econometric approach over an extended period, from 1976 to
2006. The results suggest that Madeira is about to enter the
stagnation phase. The industry’s development since the 1970s was
found to conform to Butler’s model, but in its own way. In the case
of Madeira, the island’s positive image and the time span within each
of the life cycle stages challenge the traditional life cycle model,
suggesting rather that the maturity stage may persist indefinitely.
