...Challenges and Strategies – Enhancing Competitiveness of Indian Tourism Industry Anurag Dugar* Competitiveness is a comparative concept, primarily applicable at the company or firm level (McFetridge, 1995) and indicates towards its willingness and ability to compete in a given market, but the contemporary usage of this term has extended its traditional meaning to new dimensions. However, for one school of thought, competitiveness is equally applicable to all business enterprises, levels of government and nonprofit agencies and workers of the postmodern nation state. (Hillman C. H. 1992), but for another the underlying premise for competitiveness is - ‘firms compete, and not nations’, for example, according to Krugman - "The world's leading nations are not, to any important degree, in economic competition with each other" (Wikipedia). Similarly, Porter holds that - diversified corporate do not compete; only their business units do. Thus, according to the second school of thought competition occurs at the business unit level and hence the ‘corporate strategy’ must reinforce and focus on nurturing the competitiveness of each (business) unit. From this perspective, Nations can be visualized as diversified conglomerates and its sectors, industries and firms as its diverse business units, and then the role, relevance, importance and impact of “Government Policies” (Corporate Strategy), on the competitiveness of its sectors, industries and firms (business units) is clearly elaborated...
