  • Sustainable Tourism As Development Perspective In
    BULETINUL Vol. LXI Seria 1 - 8 Universităţii Petrol – Gaze din Ploieşti No. 1/2009 Ştiinţe Economice Tourist Potentiality in the Rural Areas in Vojvodina – North Serbia1 Predrag Vuković, Nataša Kljajić, Nada Mijajlović Institute of Agriculture Economics, Belgrade, Volgina 15, 11060 Belgrade, Serbia e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Since the end of the last century the mass tourism and its concept have reached culmination. General tendencies are focused on the tourist development towards new directions in the domain of particular needs. Future touristic development should be based on the various rural areas. Pollution, allienation from the natural environment, standardization are only a few concepts of ordinary life influencing a lot of people to turn back towards nature and the healthy way of living. Vojvodina is situated on the north part of Serbia, belonging to the Panonian area. Natural and geographical benefits offer good possibilities for investing and development. Vojvodina is marked with very attractive natural ambient: Fruška Gora, National Park, Kovilj- Petrovaradin boogy region, typical villages and farms, rivers like Danube, Tisa Tamiš etc. This area, also is characterized by rich antropogenesis resource marked with strong multiethnic element. All above mentioned characteristics offer great potential for further rural development and represent the possible starting point for further total development of this area. Key words: tourism, sustainable development, rural area JEL Classification: L83, O18, Q01 Introduction As in many other industries, accepting the terms, so frequent in recent future, like tourist industry, leasure industry , in tourism in the very beginning of its development phases, natural resources and their exploitation were not placed among important factors.

    MINISTRY OF ENVIRONmeNT AND SPATIAL PLANNING BIODIVERSITY STRATEGY OF THE RePUBLIC OF SeRBIA FOR THE PERIOD 2011 – 2018 Belgrade, 2011. IMPRINT Title of the publication: Biodiversity Strategy of the Republic of Serbia for the period 2011 – 2018 Publisher: Ministry of Environment and Spatial Planning, Belgrade For Publisher: Oliver Dulic, MD Editors: Prof. Ivica Radovic, PhD Milena Kozomara, MA Photography: Boris Erg, Sergej Ivanov and Predrag Mirkovic Design: Coba&associates Printed on Recycled paper in “PUBLIKUM”, Belgrade February 2011 200 copies ISBN 978-86-87159-04-4 FOR EWORD “Because of the items that satisfy his fleeting greed, he destroys large plants that protect the soil everywhere, quickly leading to the infertility of the soil he inhabits and causing springs to dry up, removing animals that relied on this nature for their food and resulting in large areas of the once very fertile earth that were largely inhabited in every respect, being now barren, infertile, uninhabitable, deserted. One could say that he is destined, after making the earth uninhabitable, to destroy himself” Jean Baptiste Lamarck (Zoological Philosophy, 1809). Two centuries after Lamarck recorded these thoughts, it is as if we were only a step away from fulfilling his alarming prophecy. Today, unfortunately, it is possible to state that man’s influence over the environment has never been as intensive, extensive or far-reaching. The explosive, exponential growth of the world’s population, coupled with a rapid depletion of natural resources and incessant accumulation of various pollutants, provides a dramatic warning of the severity of the situation at the beginning of the third millennium.

  • Tourism Potential of Serbian Protected Areas Dear Reader
    ATLAS OF TOURISM POTENTIAL OF SERBIAN PROTECTED AREAS Dear reader, Serbia’s protected areas, the jewels of the country, contain nu- merous wonders of nature. A variety of rare, endangered animal and plant species can be observed in their natural habitat. Desi- gnating protected areas allows the provision of safe harbours for these species and ecosystems, which in many cases are unique. And promoting nature-respecting tourism and recreation in the- se areas not only allows visitors to explore these wonders, but also contributes to the livelihood of the people and communities who have lived in and shaped those landscapes over centuries. It is UNDP’s ambition, together with the authorities and people of Serbia, to support tourism and recreation in protected areas, so that you can explore their treasures. Hiking, bird watching, sport fishing, camping, but also adventurous activities, such as mountain biking, canyoning, paragliding or rafting, offer multiple opportunities for spending high quality time outdoors. Tourism infrastructure – like visitor centres, educational signalization, ob- servation towers and walking trails – are currently being built in all the protected areas to facilitate and guide visitors in exploring the nature, while enhancing the understanding and willingness to protect their unique character and inherent, rare species. I hope this “Atlas of Tourism Potential of Serbian Protected Are- as” will inspire you, guide you to remote corners of Serbia, and wake your curiosity to explore some of the most beautiful sides of this country. I would like to use the opportunity express my gratitude to the protected area managers for their valuable con- tribution in preparing it.

  • Local Reactions Concerning Serbia's Obedska Bara Nature Reserve
    Pol. J. Environ. Stud. Vol. 25, No. 1 (2016), 273-282 DOI: 10.15244/pjoes/60501 Original Research Local Reactions Concerning Serbia’s Obedska Bara Nature Reserve Dragoslav Pavić1, Dejana Jakovljević2*, Aleksandar Krajić3 1Faculty of Sciences, University of Novi Sad, Trg Dositeja Obradovića 3 21000 Novi Sad, Serbia 2Geographical Institute "Jovan Cvijić" Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts Đure Jakšića 9, 11000 Belgrade, Serbia 3Independent researcher Received: 9 February 2015 Accepted: 5 November 2015 Abstract The attitudes and awareness of local residents toward protected areas have been at issue during the last several years. Understanding the awareness and attitudes of people toward protected areas and their integra- tion into management strategies is a key factor in developing successful management plans for long-term conservation of these areas. The goal of this study is to examine the attitudes of local residents toward the Obedska Bara Special Nature Reserve in Serbia, in order to evaluate and ensure the appropriate implemen- tation of protective measures. The field data collection used 218 indirect communications with respondent questionnaires in the villages of Obrež, Ašanja, Kupinovo, Grabovci, and Ogar on random sampling. The questions were divided into two main categories: general questions (gender, age, education, employment, income) which gave socio-economic structure, and questions about the reserve. The second category of questions was used for assessment of awareness of people about the protected area, their attitudes toward protection, attitudes toward tourists, and their proposals for sustainable development of this protected area. Respondents were aware of the presence of the protected area (almost 100%) and a high percentage of them knew its boundaries.
