Abstract
The monograph explores the theoretical, methodological, and practical aspects of assessing the competitiveness of the tourism and hospitality industry. The scientific novelty of the work lies in a systematic and multi-level conceptualization of the problem of competitiveness, integrating competitive processes occurring at the macro, meso, and micro levels into a unified analytical framework.
The monograph may serve as supplementary instructional material for undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral degree programs in Business Administration and Tourism.
The findings and recommendations developed can be used to assess the competitive environment, formulate public policy, manage tourist destinations, undertake strategic planning, and enhance competitiveness in the hotel services sector.
