Croatian Islands: the Role of Demographic Features in Tourism Development

Ivo Nejašmić

Abstract

The paper deals with the role of modern demographic features in the island tourism development. The population age structure is the main limiting factor of development on the majority of islands. That cannot be said for the educational structure, at least not in a significant measure, but in a part of the islands it undoubtedly represents the brake to more powerful development of modern tourism. The conclusion is that on the majority of islands the human resource is one of the weaker points in the possible application of the "new tourism" conception.
