In this essay we will try to examine some aspects of ecotourism from the viewpoint of reconcilability ofconservation and development. First, a definition and development of ecotourism is shown and its characteristics are demonstrated. Ecotourismis a kind of tourism bound for the realization of the conservation of natural environment and the sustainabledevelopment. This objective gave ecotourism its unique character in comparison with other types of tourism.As an example of this, an ecotour in Borneo is examined in detail. Second, some effects and limitations of ecotourism are explicated and its possibilities and inherent problemsare analyzed from the viewpoint of reconcilability of conservation and development. Ecotourism hassome advantages in the realization of this aim. Because it is basically a type of tourism, ecotourism can involvewider social spheres than other types of conservation activities and development assistances, such as local communitiesin developing countries, NGOs or corporations, and naturalist societies or individuals in developedcountries. On the other hand, ecotourism has some limitations because its share in the world tourism is still verysmall by now. And furthermore we must say that it is essentially difficult task because of its contradictory naturein the reconcilability of conservation and development. In order to realize this task, we need some time andefforts in many ways. Nevertheless, we must say that ecotourism has great possibilities to transform unequalstructures of world tourism and make better future of global society. At the conclusion of this essay, we will give some implications extracted from these enterprises. We shouldnot forget that ecotourism is as much a social movement as an economic activity, and we should make continuouseffort to realize that goal.
