TURYSTYKA JAKO PRZEDMIOT PLANOWANIA STRATEGICZNEGO ADMINISTRACJI PUBLICZNEJ

The aim of the article is to illustrate the specificity of the new paradigm for the de-velopment of tourism as well as the evaluation – in its framework – of the selected stra-tegic documents concerning two underdeveloped Voivodeships of Eastern Poland, i.e. the Lublin and Subcarpathian Voivodeships. The choice of those two Voivodeships was intentional, since they are both characterised by interesting natural and cultural values, however, tourism is not a significant stimulus for development and competitiveness enhancement within either the national and international dimension. From the analysis of the selected strategic documents one may conclude that strategic planning of a new ap-proach towards development of tourism is becoming more widespread, though its possi-ble innovative nature is barely noticeable.
