Description : The publication presents a detailed analysis of the concept of sustainable tourism development through chapters: the devastation of the living environment, the devastation of the social environment, international and national sustainability of tourism, the influence of tourism on the sustainable development of the destination, sustainable development of tourism destination, indicators of sustainable tourism development, tourist policy and sustainable development of a hotel enterprise. The focus is on managing sustainable tourism development at the level of the tourism destination of Montenegro and its enterprises in the tourism sector. The devastation of air, water, and soil, generated by the travel and tourism industries, is increasing every day, together with the devastation of the social resources of tourism destinations. Mass, alternative and selective tourism, special interest tourism, and niche tourism have different effects in the devastation of living environmental elements. In order to minimize the negative impacts of tourism in the destination, tourism policy makers at the international, national, regional, and local levels need to continuously create "green" - legal, bylaws, planning measures, and other measures as well as numerous activities. The application of sustainable tourism development can be measured with the help of the following indicators - environmental, economic, cultural, social, and sustainability of visitors’ protection of a tourism destination. Therefore, a particularly important role in realizing the concept of sustainable tourism development at the destination level is played by the tourism policy makers and managers at the level of the enterprises in tourism, especially managers of hotel enterprises. The book is the result of years of scientific research in the field of sustainable tourism development. It can be used as basic literature for educating students on sustainable tourism development, academic study programs in tourism, and applied study programs in the field of hospitality. It is a useful source of information for tourism policy makers at all levels; managers of national parks, hotel enterprises, travel agencies, and museums; employees of non-governmental organizations in the field of sustainable tourism development; enterprises that respect the concept of sustainable development; but also, everyone else interested in the concept of sustainable tourism development.
