international tourism, security, threats, tourist regionsAbstract
The article presents the problem of the relation between security in international tourism and threats that in a significant way determine its level. In the discussion such areas of safety and risk were considered which are in close connection, such as the natural environment, political and religious as well as legal and health issues. Also the dimensions of security in some regions of the world are shown, giving examples of tourist areas (including countries) which have a high, medium and low security level including determinants of this state of affairs. The issues are discussed based on a review of literature as well as the authors’ own experiences and observations.References
