The topic of this diploma thesis is the appearance of the global Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy of Dubrovnik and its budget analysed for the period from 2016 to 2020, i.e. from before and after the appearance of the coronavirus. In 2020, the virus causing Covid-19 appeared in the world and has since affected the global economy including Croatia. One of the hardest-hit industries is tourism. The pandemic has had a direct impact on the further development of tourism, the pandemic being a major threat affecting also the budget of the City of Dubrovnik. By analysing the period from 2016 to 2020, the thesis aims to establish a direct connection of the newly emerged pandemic and the budget of the City of Dubrovnik. After the pandemic was declared, the life as it used to take place until then has changed. In the business world, working from home has been introduced so that it is no longer necessary to be in the office but rather only to have access to communication technologies that make work online possible. Since the job can now be done regardless of the place of work, the term ‘digital nomad’ has emerged. Digital nomads are entrepreneurs or employees who can now work anywhere in the world. The paper is to establish the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on Dubrovnik as a destination and its budget, and present the new trend that the pandemic additionally developed.
