20. yüzyılın ikinci yarısı, devletler için yeni ekonomik gücün gelişimine şahitlik
etmiştir. Kitlelerin örgütlü seyahatleri yeni bir sanayi doğurmuştur: turizm. Turizm
devletlerin ekonomik büyümesindeki en önemli ve yenilikçi unsurlardan bir hâline
geldiğinde, turizm ile alâkalı konuları örgütlemek ve düzenlemek de önemli hâle gelmiştir.
Böylelikle, bu ihtiyaç kendisini Dünya Turizm Örgütü olarak hükûmetler-arası bir örgüte
dönüştürmüştür. Gerçekte, kurulmasından evvel, bu alanda hükûmetler dışı uluslararası bir
örgüt vardır ve bu örgüt Birleşmiş Milletler’in de yardımıyla kendisini Dünya Turizm
Örgütü’ne çevirmiştir. Önemine rağmen, görüldüğü üzere, Dünya Turizm Örgütü kendi
çapında ihmal edilmiştir. Bu ihmal edilmişliğin göstergesi, gerek özellikle diğer uzmanlık
örgütleriyle mukayese edildiğinde üye sayısının azlığında, gerek gerçek statüsü hakkında
global medya organlarında çıkan yanıltıcı bilgilerde gözlemlenebilir. Bununla birlikte, bu
makale, büyük öneme sahip nadir bir uzmanlık örgütünü, Dünya Turizm Örgütü’nü kısaca
tariflemekte, öz bir biçimde kuruluş tarihçesini, üyeliğe ilişkin özelliklerini, örgütün ana
yapısını, hukukî statüsünü ve aynı zamanda Birleşmiş Milletler ile olan ilişkisini
içermektedir. Dahası, bu örgüt tüm uluslararası kurumsal hukuk tarihindeki en etkileyici
dönüşümü de temsil etmektedir.

WORLD TOURISM ORGANIZATION

The last quarter of the 20th century has seen the development of a new economic power for states. The organized travels of masses have formed a new industry: tourism. When tourism has become one of the most important and innovative element in the economic growth of states, the need to organize and regulate tourism-related matters has also become vital. Hence, this demand has transformed itself into an inter-governmental organization i.e. World Tourism Organization. In fact, before its establishment, there was a non-governmental organization in this field, and with the help of the United Nations this organization has turned itself into World Tourism Organization. Apparently, despite its prominence, the World Tourism Organization has been neglected. The indications of this negligence can be seen either in the number of its member states, particularly comparing it to the other specialized agencies or in the misleading information about its real status in the global media. Nevertheless, this article contains a short description of a deviated specialized agency, which is World Tourism Organization, and also includes the brief history of its establishment, the features of its membership, the main structure of the organization, its legal status, and its relation with the United Nations, as well. Furthermore, this organization represents one of the most influential transformations in the whole history of international institutional law.
