Sažetak
Sustainable development is imposed nationally and globally as an important civilisation issue that is closely related to globalisation processes. Most scientists involved in this matter agree that globalisation implies the process of economic, social, cultural, and political activity that transcends national borders and recognises a process of synergy in globalisation and other trends divided into three subsystems: technological, economic, and cultural. Some authors speak of „biological globalisation“, i.e. the need for integration of the ecosystem through migrations of genetic material and other biological agents, adding global processes like climate change, disruption of the ozone layer, and pollution of the seas and oceans. Globalisation is a contradictory process, because it carries some opposing effects: on the one hand, it connects remote economies and culture, and on the other hand, it promotes cultural particularism and strengthening of national identities. The tendency of economic and political connections between young nations is opposed by strong potential pressures of national and territorial division within them. According to some authors, it is proven that the future of small countries such as Croatia lies in the context of opposing tendencies of globalisation and polarisation, that global economy has become more interconnected, and that probability of its instability is growing rather than declining. Foreign globalisation investments, especially those in the tourism industry, should be used in common investments based on a well-planned national developmental economic policy. This fact becomes even more important when we know that tourism is the strongest industry and the only continuously growing economic sector in Croatia, which has additionally strengthened its impact on the economy
