Resumo: This theoretical essay aims to introduce the concept of field derivative from the Bourdeusian sociological theory to tourism and discuss some implications from it to governance of tourist destinations. For this it was done a brief review on Bourdieu’s sociological theory and in the scarce papers in tourism area that tried to approximate this theoretical framework and tourism phenomena. In the results we present a proposal of transposition to the concept of field to tourism. In the same way it is showed the different possibilities that the pattern of relationships of the actors can set it up. It is argued that the actors in a tourism field needs to, directly or not, consider and deal with the positions of the others actors in the field. In conclusion if one wants to obtain a broader and efficient system of governance to tourist destination is necessary to analyze how structured the field is, who are the actors, what are their positions and what are their dispositions to act in some way. These elements will provide a matrix of relations to guide an empirical destination to identify and manage more accurately its constraints and capabilities to develop.
