In: Moscow University Economics Bulletin, Band 2016, Heft 6, S. 71-86

Abstract

The article discusses three main areas of interdisciplinary research of the phenomenon of "tourism" with the aim to increase the effectiveness of its socio-economic functioning. These areas include an expansion of study scope at the expense of attraction of scientific research in the related science areas, a multiplicative analysis of the interaction of tourism and other industries, research in the complex range of services with underlying tourism product. The proposed multidisciplinary research should be based both on theoretical developments and empirical material, reflecting the dynamics of the market of tourist services.
