Gastronomy is the art and science of fine eating and is in the main focus of modern
human life, its culture, tradition and customs. Basically, gastronomy is an experience of
participating in another culture, experience of relationships with other people and
places, which gives a strong sense of own identity.
UNCTAD, as an organization in 2015, introduced the concept of a "creative economy"
in the global agenda for economics and development. In essence, creative economy is
a new concept that works through the influence of creativity, culture, economics and
technology. Also, the OECD since 2015 with the new approach to tourism development
puts creative tourism in the forefront through its creativity, innovation and intangible
content. It is precisely that gastronomy, through its significant growth, has turned into
the most dynamic and most creative segment of tourism. Gastronomy is essentially a
creative industry.
The aim of the paper is to explore the importance of gastronomy, that is, the
"gastronomic economy" as a key sub-sector of the creative and tourism economy.
Food is definitely a part of the creative economy, and as such it can guide the
economic growth and development of underdeveloped industrial economies towards
achieving their development goals, including the so-called. sustainable development
goals promoted by UNDP. The general conclusions will be used for their application in
the sustainable development of places in the Republic of North Macedonia.
Conceptually the paper has several parts: First, an overview of the theoretical thought
of gastronomy as an intangible cultural heritage is given. Second, the concept of a
creative economy is presented through four approaches to its theoretical
determination. Third, this is accompanied by the connection between gastronomic
tourism and the creative economy, especially through the explanations of the forms of
creativity. Fourth, Gastronomic tourism (industry) is an emerging concept that dealing
with the interface between creativity, culture, business and technology. This reveals
itself as a useful segment of the economy that can lead to accelerated economic
development, primarily for underdeveloped economies, in accordance with the UNDP
standards for sustainable development goals. In that sense, in the last part of the
paper an attempt is made to explore the possibility of economic, social and
environmental sustainability of places in Macedonia through the contribution of food
and gastronomy.
Key words: gastronomic tourism, creative economy, food and gastronomy, goals for
sustainable development of places, gastronomic product.
