Abstract

The relationship between environment and tourism in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) can be portrayed as symbiotic, embedded within processes of postcommunist restructuring. With reference to specific CEE experience, I will evaluate briefly in this paper some of the components, problems, and outcomes of five dimensions of the tourism — environment relationship. These are: environment as a stimulus to tourism; environment as a constraint on tourism; tourism and sustainability; environment and place marketing; and tourism impacts on the environment. It is concluded that, although tourism should be viewed as just one element of postcommunist development, it has a multifaceted relationship with natural and cultural environments which demands that particular attention be paid to sustainable management.
