<p>Шајкашка&nbsp; је географски&nbsp; субрегион у&nbsp;Србији. То је југоисточни део Бачке, лоциран&nbsp;у средишњем делу Аутономне Покрајине&nbsp;Војводине.&nbsp; Анализом природних и&nbsp;друштвених атрактивности, материјалне базе&nbsp;неопходне за развој туризма и садашњег&nbsp;стања развоја селективних облика туризма&nbsp;дошло се до закључка да Шајкашка, поред&nbsp;свих потенцијала, није афирмисана&nbsp;туристичка дестинација, чиме је потврђена&nbsp;основна хипотеза рада.</p><p>У раду су&nbsp;дефинисани кључни туристички ресурси&nbsp; и&nbsp;приоритетни облици&nbsp; туризма&nbsp; и&nbsp; са&nbsp;сигурношћу се може констатовати да&nbsp;Шајкашка&nbsp; може одмах или релативно&nbsp; брзо&nbsp;оформити конкурентно задовољавајући ниво&nbsp;у вези са&nbsp; следећим&nbsp; туристичким&nbsp;производима:&nbsp; наутички, излетнички, ловни и&nbsp;риболовни, сеоски, салашарски и спортско-рекреативни туризам, који би требало да&nbsp;представљају окосницу развоја туризма на&nbsp;овом простору.&nbsp; Услов је да се&nbsp; на новим, научно утемељеним и у&nbsp; пракси доказаним сазнањима, постави такав модел развоја, који ће да осигура&nbsp; да се&nbsp; Шајкашка&nbsp; позиционира као препознатљива и привлачна туристичка дестинација,&nbsp; са прецизно&nbsp; одређеном структуром&nbsp; туристичког производа&nbsp; и дефинисаним маркетинг планом развoja. У раду&nbsp; су дефинисани планови даљег развоја и предлози за унапређење туризма Шајкашке, базирани на резултатима анкетног истраживања туристичког тржишта. Испитивање туристичке тражње спроведено је на испитаницима из Новог Сада и Зрењанина, док је за потребе истраживања на страни туристичке понуде спроведено истраживање ставова локалног становништва Шајкашке о стању и перспективама развоја туризма у њиховим насељима. Резултати истраживања указују на чињеницу на Шајкашка није препознатљива туристичка дестинација, да нема изграђен имиџ, и да више од половине испитаника није посетило природне и друштвене атрактивности које се налазе на овом простору. Најбоље оцењени елементи Шајкашке, као туристичке дестинације су гастрономија, атрактивност вода и мултикултуралност, док је најслабије оцењен елеменат материјална основа.&nbsp; У&nbsp; резултатима истраживања ставова локалног становништва дошло се до закључка да&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; становништво има позитиван став према развоју туризма, али да није свесно локалних туристичких вредности, ни природних нити културних, те да је неопходно спровести програме туристичке едукације и подизања самосвести.&nbsp; Велики удео локалног становништва има магловите представе о туризму и не познаје кораке и поступке који могу од ове делатности направити сигуран &nbsp;извор допунске зараде.&nbsp; Из анализе резултата анкетног истраживања донети су важни и конкретни закључци који би могли бити од велике помоћи за даље планирање развоја туризма у Шајкашкој.&nbsp; У резултатима истраживања&nbsp; нагласак&nbsp; се ставља&nbsp; на&nbsp; циљне тржишне сегменте на &nbsp;које треба усмерити маркетинг активности, стратегије које би требало применити и предуслове&nbsp; које&nbsp; треба испунити&nbsp; да&nbsp; би&nbsp; туризам заиста&nbsp; постао&nbsp; један од&nbsp; водећих&nbsp; елемената&nbsp; свеукупног&nbsp; развоја овог простора,&nbsp; а&nbsp; Шајкашка постала препознатљива туристичка&nbsp; дестинација&nbsp; у Србији.</p> / <p>Šajkaška&nbsp; je geografski&nbsp; subregion u&nbsp;Srbiji.

The aim of the thesis was to clarify the role of literary tourism in Czechia and to evaluate its potential and possible uses. After that, a comparison based on foreign literature and sources was made between Czechia and other countries. The places selected in this thesis have a link to the life or work of a prominent Czech writer and seek to develop literary tourism, promote literature, attract visitors, etc. These are places where the writer's birthplace is open to the public and where museums with an exhibition focusing on that writer and the writer's works have been created and where literary festivals or other thematic events are organized etc. These places were approached with the offer of being involved in the making of a game called "Build your world" and a newly created smaller competition "In the footsteps of our writers". Collector magnets have been created for those who have agreed to be involved in these games. These magnets serve as a means to support the development of literary tourism in the Czech Republic and involve local actors in a nationwide event, which will raise awareness both of important writers and of the places associated with them. Very often the places involved are less visited ones. Key words: tourism, literary tourism, potential, Build your world, In the footsteps of...

This thesis adopts critical feminist theory, which is a combination of both critical theory and feminist theory, to explore the nature and experiences of Omani women involved in tourism entrepreneurship with particular regard to empowerment. Several studies have identified the potential role of tourism entrepreneurship to empower women due to the many benefits that it provides. However, this potential, and the extent that it empowers women, has been questioned. A review of the literature on women in tourism entrepreneurship reveals that there are several issues that have theoretical and practical implications for women's empowerment through this activity. Furthermore, a review of the development studies literature indicates that there are many prevailing issues and debates surrounding the concept of women's empowerment thatmerit further investigation. The fieldwork for this research took place in Oman during 2013-­‐2014 and included an examination of a hosting group, sewing group and a number of women tourism entrepreneurs. Participant observations and semi-structured/unstructured interviews were conducted to collect information about these women. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the collected information and to develop three ethnographic case studies. The findings of this research reveal that tourism entrepreneurship does not inevitably bring about empowerment for Omani women. It is far from being an activity for women's individual and collective empowerment, given that the scope for such remains dependent on the embedded environment and is influenced by the nature of tourism enterprise work. An empirically informed conceptual framework was developed from the data to present this phenomenon. A grounded conceptualization was also developed from the data to conceptualize the process of women's empowerment for Omani women in tourism entrepreneurship. Theoretical implications of the findings areidentified in relation to the appropriate use of the concept of women's empowerment in tourism research. Practical implications of the findings are also identified in relation to local and international tourism organisations that utilises tourism entrepreneurship opportunities for women's empowerment purposes.
