Abstract
In my thesis I tried to examine how the soviet tourism was presented in the French press of the 1930s. A review of the role of Intourist, a core element around which the thesis revolves, but also the foreign tourism in the Soviet Union would be presented. In both cases, the emphasis is on France and the French tourists. Later, a detailed analysis of the sources I have collected is presented, using the tools of discourse analysis and framing, based on the theory of tourist gaze by Urry. More specifically, one chapter is focused on articles reflecting the role of the soviet propaganda and the other on articles reflecting the role of Intourist.
