The article presents the author’s perspective on the content of legal training as part of the undergraduate and graduate education in tourism-related disciplines and as implemented in the framework of the new (3+) generation of standards. The authors substantiate the expediency of the «Legal groundwork for the tourism industry» course development. The authors proceed from the premise that law-related courses have always been generally considered to be the most challenging both for the faculty (as their teaching requires faculty members to be qualified instructors and legal practitioners actively engaged in research concerning legal regulation in the tourism industry) and the students, which brought a majority of HE institutions to consciously exclude the course from the curriculum or to replace it by other less law-specific courses. The authors of the article make a case of a complex approach to and consideration of the major issues linked to the legal groundwork for tourism activity, the development and implementation of the federal and regional tourism development programmes. The «Legal groundwork for the tourism industry» course, as developed by the authors, views tourist activity as the object of legal regulation, covers the current issues of tourist activity legal regulation, identifies the operators of the tourist activity, describes the contracting system used in the tourism industry, provides for research into the major aspects of the legal groundwork for federal, regiona, and municipal programme development, the tourist market clusterization, etc. The course is designed as a core course for graduate students and as an advanced course of study for undergraduate students majoring in law- and/or service-and-tourism-related disciplines.

The aim of the article is to examine the computer simulations as one of the interactive methods of training and formulate proposals for their effective use in training bachelors of law. The authors have chosen the basis of the research methodology a systematic approach using formal-logical method as well as methods of theoretical knowledge and empirical research. As a result, the authors formulated the definition of legal computer simulation, classified these simulations. The authors proposed a scheduling algorithm and conduct classes with the use of computer simulations. There are conclusions about the problems and the subsequent directions of development of computer simulation for a more effective legal system for training of bachelors, which should be according to the authors field of application of the results.

В представленной статье анализируются типичные ошибки в договорной работе туристских организаций, приводящие к нарушению прав как туристов, так и турагентов, вынужденных заключать договоры, разработанные туроператором как наиболее сильной стороной договора. Сделан вывод о том, что, несмотря на совершенствование законодательства в сфере туризма, в практической деятельности туристских организаций довольно часто встречаются нарушения законодательства. The presented work analyses typical mistakes in the contractual work of tourist organizations, leading to violation of the rights of both tourists and travel agents forced to conclude contracts developed by the tour operator as the strongest side of the contract. It has been concluded that despite the improvement of legislation in the field of tourism, violations of the law are quite common in the practical activities of tourist organizations.
