THE INTERDEPENDENCE OF ECONOMIC AND TOURISM DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
On its development path, tourism has experienced a vast number of essential internal and external transformations: it has acquired different types of appearance and phenomena, served different means, broadened the volume in space and quantitative aspect, changed characteristics and structure, became enriched by new motives, acquired new functions, had various influences and served different aims and targets, and never lost its economic characteristics while going through all of these. The basic characteristic of tourism as an economic and business activity is shown in the fact that on the one hand there exist tourists as consumers of tourist services who have money at their disposal to pay for such services and, on the other hand, there is tourism economy which has to fulfill various touristic needs. Tourism is a neat and precise activity, very delicate and subtle, which acquires many types of knowledge, patience and good will not only from the participants but also from other participants in a tourist offer. There are no unique forms of activities here because it is the question of the “face to face” business and each person is different. All these things could be achieved by constant continuous investment into knowledge, especially into the area of economic knowledge.
