Abstract

The article reveals an actual, previously not touched upon in scientific research, problem of the mechanism for the development of a tourism and recreational cluster for effective organizational and economic management of the formation of the innovative potential of the North Caucasus. To solve this problem, the authors propose new methodological solutions that allow assessing the formation and development of a tourism cluster, and will also allow assessing the effectiveness of the cluster, as well as a synergistic effect based on an integral method that allows determining indicators of heterogeneity, which will contribute to a comprehensive assessment of the possibilities of implementing cluster policy in the tourism industry. The authors claim that cluster policy is an important tool for solving the problems necessary for the tourism sector to receive effective development in the regions.
