Tourism Nowadays - Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract

People always have mentioned the fact that economy is constantly changing, and the economic environment should be as flexible as it can and ready to easily embrace any type of change. This phenomenon of the change is probably more present and more visible than ever, especially in what tourism is concerned. Bearing in mind the context shaped by the emergence of the pandemic, we must admit that all the forecasts, the hypotheses and the growth stimulating strategies that the tourism specialists previously came up with, are slowly turning into something obsolete in the newly expressed reality. The current scientific literature does not hold the cover page anymore in what the evolution of the tourism area is concerned, therefore this sector of tourism stands for its need for support, engagement and the rethinking of the strategies and the instruments that have been developed so far. In this respect, this paper aims at reaffirming the concept of tourism, but also at placing it in the actual context.
