THE ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF STRATEGIC PLANS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TOURISM
Abstract
The term planning and tourism is as complex as the concept of tourism. This intensifies the need for development planning, where planning is seen as a process, and not as a current event. The paper discusses the strategic plans for tourism development. Planning will be defined as an integrated approach with the essential characteristics, functions and levels. We will also investigate the tasks and phases of planning. A special segment that will be considered relates to planning the concept of tourism development: national and regional levels, as well as development planning at the level of cities or tourist sites, as well as tourist destinations. The aim is to show that the development of tourism in Serbia should apply best practices and modern solutions, and in this way, an acceptance of planning as an essential factor of development.
