The review explains how Menorca has shifted, especially since the 1980s, from a more industrial and balanced economy to an increasing dependence on tourism. It highlights that López Casasnovas argues this transformation has brought prosperity, but also significant risks such as overcrowding, urban pressure, environmental degradation, and a potential loss of quality of life and social cohesion. The review emphasizes that, although Menorca has preserved its territory and identity better than other islands, it is not immune to the effects of an economic model overly centered on tourism.
