Abstract

In this paper we briefly present the body of scientific knowledge of Professor Boris Vukonić, published in his books on the development of tourism in the last twenty years. The main subject of the research is tourism and development, which is also the title of the university course that Professor Vukonić taught for two full decades at the Faculty of Economics in Zagreb. The first book, Tourism and Development, published in 1987, was one of the first works in this field in Croatia. The other two books, Tourism and Development and Tourism - the Future of Many Illusions published in 2001 and 2010 respectively are also of great value for the development of the theory and practice of tourism. The main purpose and the goal of this review is to inform today’s students of tourism and tourism experts about the insights and experience that Vukonić presented in his books on tourism development, which are still relevant today.
