Assessment of Regulatory Factors Forming Preferential Legal Regimes of Strategic Development of Tourist Regions

Purpose of the study. The article discusses the current state of legislative initiatives and the transformational processes accompanying them in the state-legal system aimed at the qualitative development of regional tourism. From a critical position, the most significant aspects of the legal field that have a predominant influence on the current state and prospects for the qualitative growth of tourist territorial clusters are analyzed. Conclusions. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that in the area under study, a stable federal-regional system of protectionism of individual industry and regional economic entities has been formed in recent years, which, in turn, has significantly increased their economic performance. At the same time, studies have shown that in the domestic regional economy there is a significant imbalance between the pace and quality of development of regional socio-economic systems. Based on the analysis, the author admits that the mechanism for supporting regional tourism contains imperfect elements in its design, due to the urgent need for operational support of the manufacturing sector of the economy in the context of forced import substitution. In particular, according to the author, a significant disadvantage of the system of state preferences is the sectoral nature of the bulk of preferential regimes. The foregoing allows us to state the expediency of further qualitative transformation of the instruments of the state-legal system for the development of the regional concept of tourism.
