Today, international tourism is one of the most affected sectors of the economy due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. The main purpose of this article is to analyze current trends and identify prospects for the international tourism development in the context of increasing globalization risks in the world, using the example of Ukraine’s integration into the global tourism industry, as Ukraine is located in the centre of Europe and belongs to a number of countries with developing economies, and has the potential to expand its tourism industry, which may be of interest to the international scientific community in terms of overcoming the bifurcation point of its economic development. Analyzing the tourism industry, as one of the most progressive sectors of the world economy, we used general scientific and special research methods (abstract-logical, statistical, systemic analysis and synthesis, abstract-theoretical, and correlation-regression analysis). The paper analyzes major indexes of international tourism development in the modern globalized world and details the risks emerging during the global COVID-19 pandemic. It examines the global dynamics of tourism flows, where France, Spain, and the USA are unquestionable leaders. The study considers foreign exchange earnings of international tourism and the industry contribution to the gross domestic product of countries being an essential component of national budgets. Based on the study conducted, there were developed reliable forecast models for the tourism industry development in the countries under research. These models will provide an opportunity to generate reliable forecasts, which will allow timely identification of potential threats and making effective decisions to address them. At the same time, the issues of managing information support of economic entities in the field of international tourism need to be further developed in order to reduce risks.
What global trends do affect the organic sector in Ukraine and what organic policy tools, according to the international experience, can be implemented for its effective development? The purpose of the article is analyzing organic production and consumption trends, to propose directions and tools for their development in Ukraine. Organic production and market growth rates, relationship between consumption and income are estimated using the international organizations database. The scientific and other sources are analyzed and summarized. Demand is organic production driver and the availability of appropriate land resources and financing enables its expansion. Different measures aimed at the realizing of competitive advantages in the global market and simultaneous growth of domestic market are to be applied for organic sector development in Ukraine: government financial support for transformation, certification, products promotion; information and educational activities; fostering collaboration among supply chain agents; the legislation implementation. This article may be used for research, teaching, and economic policy development.
The article deals with the imperatives of the development of the tourist services market, which determines the parameters of the aggregate value of the sub-indices of the meso-and local levels in the spatial polarization of the regional tourist system. The methodology of spatial polarization of the regional tourist system, which provides convergence of the infra-structural space of tourist services, formation of an innovative nucleus, minimization of manifestation of destructive factors, balancing of interests of regions and the country as a whole is substantiated. It has been proposed the scientific-methodical approach to the definition of the target landmarks for the development of the tourist services market, which implements polarized tourist space in terms of quantitative and qualitative parameters, makes it possible to analyze the destructive determinants of the periphery and determinants-producers of the tourist center of activity, evaluation and forecasting of the safe level of the hierarchy of the regional tourist system, determination of clear impulses for the development of the tourist services market and density of interaction of the periphery with the center. Revenues from the sale of tourist services of local level enterprises have been analyzed. A comprehensive approach to the assessment of the concentration of the aggregate value of the security index of the regional tourist system, which is differentiated by the components of the regional security potential and threats, guarantees the development of the tourist services market and modifies the tourist system on the meso-level as a whole.
