1. Systems approach to sports events : from event animation to legal regulationTadeja Jere Jakulin, 2026, samostojni znanstveni sestavek ali poglavje v monografski publikaciji Opis: Spors events represent a complex tourism system that includes various interdependent and intertwined relationships between organisers, participants, the local community and legal regulations. The paper researches sports events from a systems- methodological perspective, where sports events are not treated as isolated phenomena, but as dynamic systems with lively relationships between various stakeholders. The paper analyses three dimensions of sports events in tourism: (1) the animation potential of sports activities, (2) the systemic modelling of sports events using the methodology of system dynamics, and (3) the legal and organisational framework that ensures the safety, responsibility and sustainability of sports event tourism. Using qualitative modelling (causal loop diagram (CLD)) and systems thinking, the article proposes a multi-criteria decision model as a concept for planning sports events, while also indicating the possibility of superimposing the model onto a so-called simulation quantitative model.

2. Multicriteria model of shore excursions sustainability in the frame of system dynamicsTaja Maček, Tadeja Jere Jakulin, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The paper introduces a fresh perspective on the intricate relationship between the destination, guests, and shore excursions. Despite its significance, the shore excursion product has been a relatively unexplored area in academic literature. Our research, therefore, sets out to define the attributes that form the bedrock of the basic sustainability indicators in tourism, with a specific focus on cruise shore excursions. We aim to pinpoint the parameters contributing to the most sustainable shore excursion for cruise passengers. This will be followed by constructing a comprehensive system dynamic structure that reflects the correlations between these parameters and their interdependency, thereby identifying areas that warrant further academic research. Ključne besede: shore excursions, cruise tourism, sustainability, system dynamics modelling, multicriteria decision-making Objavljeno v RUP: 05.02.2026; Ogledov: 588; Prenosov: 4

3. Understanding hospitality as a life quality practice in the field of gastrodiplomacy through systems approachTilen Nipič, Tilen Albreht Centrih, Žan Hodžič, Tadeja Jere Jakulin, 2025, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Hospitality, which to this day still lacks a clear and unified definition, is often divided by the (non-)commercial aspect concerning the perception of the concept. A social practice beyond the tourism activity itself is an important component of gastronomic diplomacy. It is increasingly used today to raise the image, international recognition and differentiation of a given national entity in the (tourism) world. A clearer definition of the concept is also needed in the case of food diplomacy, as the core meaning is different from that of similar terms, such as culinary diplomacy. The methodological framework for exploring the embeddedness and connectivity of (non-)commercial hospitality with a specific food diplomacy form consists of the autoethnographic method, conducted on the case of the hospitableness symbol in an Arabic-speaking country, which, in conjunction with the theoretical literature review and personal observations and experiences, served as a basis for the creation of a system diagram in the field of soft system of system thinking.
