- СтавкаThe Sustainability of Gastronomic Heritage and Its Significance for Regional Tourism Development(MDPI, 2023) Kalenjuk Pivarski, Bojana; Grubor, Biljana; Banjac, Maja; Ðerčan, Bojan; Tešanović, Dragan; Šmugović, Stefan; Radivojević, Goran; Ivanović, Velibor; Vujasinović, Vesna; Stošić, TamaraGastronomy, as a part of cultural heritage, has exceptional potential in tourism, and its key representatives and conservationists/guardians are hospitality facilities that provide food services. Vojvodina (the Republic of Serbia) is a region inhabited by more than 30 ethnic minorities that have nurtured their cultural heritage and have been incorporating it into gastronomy for many years. The subject of this paper is the gastronomy of ethnic groups in Vojvodina and its significance for tourism development from the point of view of hospitality workers as important actors in the sustainability of heritage. One of the motives behind this study is the twelfth UN sustainable development goal (SDGs) defined in 2015, which refers to providing sustainable forms of consumption and production and which emphasizes the development and application of tools for monitoring the impact that sustainable development has on tourism that promotes local culture and products (12b). The aim of this study was to obtain data on the preservation of heritage, that is, on authenticity within the region/area and ethnic groups, and then to perform a valorization of dishes and define steps on how to make gastronomic heritage a more visible tourist attraction, from the perspective of sustainability. Our survey included a sample of 508 respondents, all employees in the hospitality industry. The obtained results were statistically processed. The research showed that the Južnabaˇcka district has the greatest importance in tourism from the aspect of the implementation, preservation, and sustainability of gastronomic heritage in tourism. Among the ethnic groups, the Vojvodina Hungarians place the greatest importance on the preservation of gastronomy, which includes dishes such as goulash and uses ingredients such as river fish. The research led to the conclusion that those in the hospitality industry are of the opinion that gastronomic heritage should be promoted through activities such as tourist exposure, marketing activities, and promoting the diversity of authentic food offers in catering facilities.
- СтавкаTraditional food products on the local market - consumption conditional on the characteristics of management and restaurant facilities in tourism of Vojvodina (Serbia)(Frontiers Media SA, 2023) Kalenjuk Pivarski, Bojana; Tekić, Dragana; Šmugović, Stefan; Novaković, Aleksandra; Ivanović, Velibor; Petrović, Marica; Banjac, Maja; Đerčan, Bojan; Tešanović, Dragan; Ćirić, Miloš; Čabarkapa, Ivana; Ćirić, Ivana; Šarac, Veljko; Maravić, NikolaThe research dealt with traditional food products (TFP) observed on the local hospitality-touristic market, from the point of view of 300 restaurant workers employed in managerial positions, as important subjects in preservation of tradition in hospitality and touristic industry of Vojvodina (Republic of Serbia). The research examined the management’s views on TFP, as well as whether there are differences based on the features of the respondents as well as the restaurant facility. In order to obtain data that would provide additional guidelines for acting on the hospitality and tourism market, the procurement and consumption of TFP was also examined. In order to determine set differences the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test was applied. In order to establish statistically significant differences between the observed groups, the Dunn’s post hoc test was applied. In the second part of the research, a binary logistic regression model was applied in order to determine which of the observed variables has a significant impact on the respondents’ decision to acquire TFP from their field. The research showed that the level of education and the field of management education significantly influence the attitudes about the offer of TFP in the hospitality and tourism market, as well as the type of restaurant offer and the development of the field of business.
- СтавкаThe impossible trinity of developing countries – the Greek example(University of Rijeka, Faculty of Economics and Business, 2023) Đogo, Marko; Gligorić, Dragan; Grujić, Miloš; Mekinjić, BoškoThe mobility of factors of production from the very beginnings of the theory of the optimal currency area (OCA) stands out as one of the primary mechanisms for achieving a balance of payments, i.e. sustainability of the monetary union (Mundell criterion). However, there is a significant qualitative difference between the monetary union of countries with similar income levels and the one with different development stages Namely, in the first case, labor mobility, as a rule, has short-term economic effects, while it has a longer-term (more negative) impact – especially on the long-run aggregate supply (LRAS). Many Eastern European countries, which expressed a desire to become part of European integration and the monetary union after the communist ruin, experienced this. In a previous paper, the authors set the thesis about “Impossible Trinity of Developing Countries”. In this paper, the aspiration is to confirm the validity of this theory by analyzing Greece within the period 1999-2020, specifically observing the impact of three variables (fiscal policy, social development level, and level of economic freedom) on the emigration of the population under conditions of monetary union and labor force mobility. The results obtained in this research indicate that the fiscal policy in the observed period was the most significant factor in explaining migration trends. The implications for developing countries that are currently entering (such as Croatia) or intend to enter the monetary union with more developed countries in the future are particularly significant.
- СтавкаFactors Affecting the Consumption of Traditional Food in Tourism—Perceptions of the Management Sector of Catering Facilities(MDPI, 2023) Pivarski, Bojana Kalenjuk; Tekić, Dragana; Šmugović, Stefan; Banjac, Maja; Novaković, Aleksandra; Mutavdžić, Beba; Ivanović, Velibor; Tešanović, Dragan; Ðerčan, Bojan; Ikonić, Predrag; Petrović, Marica; Ilić Udovičić, Dragana; Vasić Popović, Aleksandra; Marić, AleksandarThe topic of this study is the factors that influence the consumption of traditional food products (TFPs) in tourism, as seen from the perspective of management-sector employees in food and beverage catering facilities. The paper aims to analyse the economic, environmental, social, and touristic factors that highly influence the consumption patterns of catering facilities which are significant providers of traditional gastronomic experiences in tourism, by using the specially designed TFPct scale. The study was conducted on a sample of 300 catering facilities in AP Vojvodina (the Republic of Serbia). An explanatory factor analysis was used to confirm the key factors that influence the consumption of traditional products used to prepare the meals that are a part of what catering facilities offer. Subsequently, a binary logistics regression model was used to establish which of the indicated factors has a statistically significant effect on the management’s decision to purchase these products for their catering facility. The study showed that the TFPct scale is appropriate for this type of research, and that economic factors are key factors in the consumption of traditional products. Moreover, compared with other types of catering facilities, interest in the consumption of these products is clearly expressed by a la carte restaurants.
- СтавкаThe Importance of Establishing Financial Valuation of Fixed Assets in Public Companies whose Founders Are Local Self-Government Units in the Republic of Serbia(2023) Radovic, Milan; Vitomir, Jelena; Popovic, Slobodan; Stojanovic, AleksandarValuing company's fixed assets is one of the important tasks that top management needs to do in order to be able to make valid management decisions. This paper used data obtained from a representative survey of 170 public companies whose founders are local self-government units, which is about 25 % of such companies in the Republic of Serbia. Unlike the other studies, the authors analyzed fixed assets of a company before and after valuation of total fixed assets. Internal audits’ recommendations and top management’s assessments regarding the valuation of total fixed assets of a company were the reason why this valuation was done. It was concluded that there is a high correlation (p = .00) between the obtained total assessment given by internal auditors and top management regarding the valuation of fixed assets before and after the valuation of total fixed assets of the company.
