The concept of competitiveness is undergoing a revolution. The revolution of competitiveness theory becomes a new paradigm. Initially, competitiveness theory discusses the ability of a company to survive in a dynamic market. The new paradigm regarding the theory of competitiveness that has become normal science is currently being defined as a concept of competitiveness between countries. One of the competitiveness of a country can be obtained from the tourism sector. Why tourism? Because tourism has developed into a major and mainstay industry in the world. The World Economic Forum (WEF) as an international institution issued a report measuring the travel and tourism competitiveness of its 136 member countries. The report in question is better known as the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index (TTCI), in which there are 14 pillars that are indicators of a country's competitiveness. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method, which aims to examine the 14 pillars as an indicator of the competitiveness of a country's tourism. These indicators are actually quite good in describing the competitiveness of a country in travel and tourism, but in developing countries there are several indicators that are still difficult to achieve because development in certain sectors is still in the process of development and takes a long time to be assessed to reach the minimum value of the TTCI indicator. This has an impact on the assessment based on indicators on TTCI for developing countries that is not optimal.

This research compares tourism competitiveness of two neighboring countries, Romania and Bulgaria, which have many similarities economically as well as from a geopolitical and historical perspective. Despite these similarities, immediately after the 1990s, which marked the fall of the communist regime, the tourism phenomenon in the two countries had divergent evolutions. As the tourism industry in Bulgaria, especially its seaside tourism, underwent unprecedented development, the tourism activity in Romania systematically lost its competitiveness. The factors affecting the appearance and increase of such a difference are of interest to the Romanian seaside tourism. To generate the answer to this problem, we perform a series of comparative analyses with data from the World Economic Forum, in terms of the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Report (2011-2015), `the National Authority for Tourism of Romania, and the National Institute of Statistics from Romania and Bulgaria. We identified a series of constitutive elements relating to the success of the Bulgarian seaside tourism and a sequence of deficiencies in the strategic and organizational maneuvers of the tourism activity at the Romanian seaside.

<p align="center"><strong>ABSTRACT</strong></p><p>Porter's theory of international competitiveness departs from his belief that classical economic theory that explains comparative advantage is inadequate. A country's competitiveness is determined by the ability of industries to innovate and improve their capabilities. Tourism is currently the star for countries to improve their performance. The Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index can provide support for countries that want to improve their tourism competitiveness. Literature study in a journal entitled "Measuring Competitiveness Objectives: Application of the Competitiveness Index for Travel and Tourism (2007)" can be a benchmark for measuring Indonesia's tourism power. The advantages of Indonesian tourism so far are still based on the low price factor, but the low price factor is an effective competitiveness factor. This makes Indonesia need to improve other factors that can become more effective competitiveness factors, such as ICT Readiness, Air Transportation Infrastructure, Environmental Sustainability, Land and Port Infrastructure, and Tourist Services Infrastructure.</p><p><strong><em>Keywords: </em></strong><em>Competitiveness, Tourist Destinations, TTCI, Tourism</em></p><p align="center"><strong> </strong></p><p align="center"><strong>ABSTRAK</strong></p><p>Teori Porter tentang daya saing nasional berangkat dari keyakinannya bahwa teori ekonomi klasik yang menjelaskan tentang keunggulan komparatif tidak mencukupi.

Sustainability is a key topic in tourism because this activity uses territory and local resources intensively. Sustainability is considered as a triple bottom line with the three vertices: environmental, social, and economic. Tourism nowadays is an economic and social phenomenon. Even in a period of crisis, tourism has experienced continued growth and widening diversification to become one of the most important sectors in the worldwide economy. Tourism uses more and more digital tools to communicate with stakeholders. This chapter has a twofold purpose: 1) to analyze the disclosure of information provided to stakeholders using digital tools; 2) to compare the sustainability reports provided by a company with the corporate sustainability report guidelines. This chapter uses a qualitative methodology to study the case of the Pestana Group. The Pestana Group is currently the largest Portuguese hospitality group with operations and hotels all over the world, and this case may provide some clues about the use of digital tools to communicate sustainability results to stakeholders.

One of the most promising sectors in the global economy is Tourism, yet in Russia, the sector's potential is far from fulfilled. Tourism should be at the heart of the core priority areas of Russia's economic development, particularly true in view of the current economic slump. Russia has no shortage of regions with visibly high potential for developing tourism, yet there are a number of problems, characteristic of Russia, which impede its progress: malnourished tourism coupled with an unsophisticated infrastructure, a shortage of personnel, weak marketing, a gloomy business climate, and a lack of adequate regulatory frameworks. Be this as it may, the slump, rather than being a hindrance, should be considered a fresh opportunity for the Russian tourism sector. Russia has been ranked 45th in the latest edition of the biennial Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Report, improving its performance by 18 points from its 2013 ranking of 63rd. The ranking, which includes 141 countries, is compiled by the World Economic Forum and Strategy Partners Group every two years, and assesses “the set of factors and policies that enable the sustainable development of the Travel and Tourism (T&T) sector, which in turn, contributes to the development and competitiveness of a country.” In 2013, the WEF cited hefty prices as one of the main disadvantages of the Russian tourist market. The availability of natural and cultural heritage sites has ensured additional points for Russia in the overall ranking; in these areas the country ranked 34th and 21st, respectively. Tours to Russia have become more affordable following the recent devaluation of the ruble – the value of the national currency against the U.S. dollar has fallen by 44 percent since May 2014. As a result, accommodation in hotels has become markedly cheaper. In addition, the consultants noted an improvement in air links (22nd). The present research is an attempt to analyze the development of domestic and inbound tourism in Russian Federation.
