Abstract：The society of the spectacle is a theory developed by Guy Debord, the founder of the Situationism International. It originated from the consume theory of Carl Max and has become one of the theories with the most explanatory power in social science. This paper explains how the theory of the society of the spectacle not only involves consumption, it is also the philosophy of art, design, planning, individual experience and gaze in tourism study. This article also summarizes the theoretical origin of the theory of the society of the spectacle; explains its ontology, epistemology and methodology; introduces its core conceptions and ideas; summarizes the bidirectional relationship between tourism and the society of spectacle paradigm; interprets its function in the field of spectacle consumption, spectacle space culture, situation experience, and the post-modern spectacle production. This research also illustrates the application of the theory of the society of the spectacle in tourism study and the transitions of its method. The theories in Debord's system are closely connected with the tourism theories from MacCannell, Boorstin, and Urry, etc., and shows a more systematical structure as a whole paradigm. For tourism study, the society of the spectacle as a paradigm offers a theory system to explain the supply and demand of modern tourism. At last， this research points out the increasing fields of this paradigm an its local practice in China in order to offer a new theoretical entrance for the analysis of social, cultural, spatial and consumption issues in the development of tourism.
