Тhe teoretical principles of an innovative development of the territorial tourist systems

An article is devoted to an analysis and generalization of the theoretical foundations of the innovative development of territorial tourism systems. It has been noted that innovations are the key factor of changes in the tourism sphere, which allows them to increase the level of tourist’s attraction, increase profits, expand the range of tourist services and promote the tourist product on the international market. The approaches of defining tourism innovation concepts in the scientific literature analyzed have been. It has been concluded that versatile terminological approaches provide the possibility of a deeper understanding of the relevant concepts essence. Common in most definitions of the «innovation in tourism» concept is an idea of introducing new solutions and technologies that contribute to the tourism development. The author’s definition of innovations in tourism define it as ones that have an innovative nature and are intended to improve the quality of tourist services and ensure the tourism industry sustainable development as a whole. Such innovations can be of different types – from new technologies and products to new methods and approaches of managing the tourism industry. The implementation of innovative solutions helps to attract new customers, increase the tourism income industry and ensure its sustainable development. Since innovative activity in tourism is a systemic process, therefore it should be analyzed in the context of territorial, in particular, regional tourism systems. According to the results of practical experience of innovative activity in the tourism sphere, innovative aspects of thedevelopment of territorial tourism systems have been identified and characterized. Innovative development of territorial tourism systems is a process that requires constant improvement and the usage of new ideas and technologies. The use of innovative approaches can help to ensure the stable development of territorial tourism systems and their adaptation to the changing conditions of the tourist market. It has been concluded that innovation is a key factor in the development of territorial, create new tourist products and ensure more effective management of recreational and tourist territories

Spatial aspects of modernization of regional tourist systems

In the conditions of transition of social systems to new technological ways and economy of knowledge the question of definition of directions of development of nonproductive sphere becomes especially relevant. Such areas can be successfully justified using the concept of innovative development. However, innovative development, emphasizing the priorities of innovation management at different hierarchical levels of economic systems can not simultaneously change the structure and direction of development of the system. The process of innovative development is continued and often covers only the latest types of economic activity, slightly exaggerating their prospects and economic efficiency (Tymchyshyn-Chemeris, 2015). At the same time, traditional approaches used in a number of industries also need to be revised and improved (Leiper, 1979; Porter, 1990; Cherchyk, 2012). Issues that arise in this context go beyond the traditional understanding of innovation and require new approaches, which, for example, in the field of tourism, should be interpreted within the concept of modernization (Holod, 2017), in particular on the basis of a systematic approach. Important for the field of tourism is the spatial dimension of modernization processes, which is in the center of attention of some scientists (Dmytryshyn, Pavlyuk, 2014; Kozhukhivska, 2018), but its research has not yet acquired a systemic nature and has no established methodological basis (Vinichenko et al., 2018c).The relevance of the research is due to the need to form a methodological basis for research on the spatial dimension of modernization processes in the tourism sector of the region, which due to the current global threats are of particular importance. The purpose of the article is to develop theoretical and methodological foundations for the study of spatial patterns of modernization of the tourism sector of the region from the standpoint of a systematic approach. The key in the research are the system approach, as well as the modernization paradigm of regional development, which allow to form a comprehensive concept of spatial development of tourism in the region. The article formulates the main provisions of the spatial dimension of modernization processes in the region; the stages of recreational development of the territory are singled out; the interrelations between the development of tourism and the processes of urbanization are analyzed; the essence of tourist clustering is substantiated and the principles of cluster formation in this sphere are singled out; the effect of “expansion” of tourist space in destinations is characterized. The results of the study can be useful for scientists researching the spatial aspects of tourism development as a type of economic activity and as a social phenomenon at the regional level, as well as for practitioners of state and regional government, representatives of the tourism business
