PARADIGMATIC APPROACH TO THE EVOLUTION OF TOURISM AS A FORM OF INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC RELATIONS
Keywords:
paradigm, tourism evolution, sustainable tourism, competitive tourism, international economic relations.Abstract
Having leaned upon the T. Kuhn’s paradigm conception, the authors have developed a paradigmatic approach to be applied to the evolution of tourism, the latter being considered as a form of international economic relations. The endevour has resulted in revealing some paradigms in the past of tourism which have allowed conceptualizing a tourism paradigm of present and future. The authors have drawn attention to the fact that some principles which are still practiced in contemporary tourism take part of an obsolete paradigm and lead to a destructive tourism while the principles of a new paradigm allow elaborating strategies for a constructive and long-time competitive tourism.
