BATUMI UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR: AREAS ENVISAGED FOR FREE TOURIST ZONES TURNED OUT TO BE ECONOMICALLY INACTIVE

Areas, envisaged for free tourist zones in Georgia, turned out to be economically inactive and adjusted only for seasonal loading, points the article published in Economics and Banking, journal of National Bank of Georgia (NBG).

Author of the article (Besik Bolkvadze, doctor of economics, associate professor of Batumi State University) indicates that creation of these zones was preceded by neither economic research nor study of foreign experience.
