The Reasons for the Public Sector Interventionism Regarding Tourism Development
This paper discusses the role of the public sector in tourism development. The development of tourism needs to be managed and not left uncontrolled. The public sector approaches tourism with special interest due to its positive impact on the economy. However, in order to realize the benefits of the effects of tourism, the public sector must achieve certain prerequisites for the development of tourism. Achieving a balance between the needs of each interested business and a sustainable development of tourist destinations is a real challenge. Therefore, the management of tourism is a complex task and there are good reasons why the public sector is usually in charge of its good functioning in society. After the introductory section the paper considers the reasons for the public sector interventionism in tourism development. The public sector by its intervening in tourism development seeks to achieve its long-term sustainable development. The public sector manages the activities of public importance. Since tourism is resulting in significant implications which are of public importance - the public sector faces an imperative of being engaged in planning and controlling tourist activities, or generally to manage the development of tourism. Permanent growth of tourism requires from the public sector to assume the role of a coordinator of overall tourism activities. In this context, the performance evaluation of tourism policy in a specific tourist destination is often a political issue, resulting in conflicts among political options, which is especially the case in Croatia.
