Evolutia noilor tipuri de turism in Romania
THE EVOLUTION OF NEW TYPES OF TOURISM IN ROMANIA

Summary/Abstract: During the past decades, more and more governments have admitted the importance of tourism as catalyst of economic and social development. Therefore tourism has been praised for its rapid and sustained development, although not even its’ most optimistic advocates couldn’t foresee such growth and resistance during global economic recession periods, when tourism has maintained or even strengthened its position. After a period during which has had a fluctuating evolution, influenced by the general economic, social and political situation, Romanian tourism seems to have taken an ascendant trajectory during the past years. Supporting this statement is the WTTC report “Romania – The impact of travel and tourism on jobs and the economy” which presents optimistic forecasts regarding Romanian tourism. Moreover, the growth of some new, modern types of tourism in our country such as business tourism, rural tourism, urban tourism, etc., sustain the idea of a positive trend in the evolution of Romanian tourism. These new types of tourism have recorded real growth during the past few years and the premises for their development strengthen the idea of tourism becoming an important sector of the national economy.
