Abstract

The research objectives presented in this paper are to assess the current state of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s rural tourism offer and to recommend a course of action for its development based on the model’s data that was gathered from subject-matter experts. In this paper, the multicriteria analysis method DEX (Decision EXpert) was utilized to assess the capacity of rural tourism in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BIH) and to obtain the results. All establishments were rated “very good”, seeing that they made use of the natural beauty that BIH has to offer. The outcomes of using this model were used to generate suggestions for the long-term development of rural tourism in BIH. The contribution of the employed model is in the developed starting points for the advancements of rural tourism in BIH, and the proposed model presents a novel method for evaluating a nation’s tourism potential that could be used in future studies in other tourism-related fields as well. The limitations of this paper stem from the fact that not all tourist establishments were considered due to the lack of unified records for all of these establishments. The model used in this research, on the other hand, is applicable to all tourist capacities, which is an advantage.

基于dex的波黑乡村旅游可持续发展评价

本文提出的研究目标是评估波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那乡村旅游的现状，并根据从主题专家那里收集的模型数据，为其发展提出行动建议。本文采用多准则分析方法DEX (Decision EXpert)对波黑(BIH)乡村旅游能力进行了评价，并得出了评价结果。所有的餐厅都被评为“非常好”，因为它们充分利用了波黑的自然美景。使用该模型的结果为波黑的乡村旅游的长期发展提供了建议。所采用的模型的贡献在于为波黑的乡村旅游发展制定了起点，所提出的模型提出了一种评估一个国家旅游潜力的新方法，也可以用于其他旅游相关领域的未来研究。本文的局限性在于，由于缺乏对所有旅游场所的统一记录，因此并非所有旅游场所都被考虑在内。另一方面，本研究中使用的模型适用于所有旅游能力，这是一个优势。
