MODELLING DYNAMICS OF THE TALC WITH SYSTEM DYNAMICS METHODOLOGY AND DPSIR FRAMEWORK

Abstract

Purpose – touristic destinations develop over time, which is why, in order to get a comprehensive picture of their development, it is necessary to observe it's dynamics. Methodology – in this paper system dynamics methodology and of DPSIR framework will use. In order to model reasoning behind the TALC behaviour, presented research in this paper leans on TALC logistic curve. Findings – deeper analysis of the causes and/or consequences elements of destination (sub)system (supply and demand) will indicate way of affect touristic area life cycle dynamics. Contribution – better understanding of the background structure of TALC pattern behaviour may help destination managers/planners to bring appropriate policies to move destination’s sustainability towards higher level of organisation.
