ABSTRACT

With the current rising trends of power decentralization and regional balanced development, participatory collaboration became an important issue in tourism policymaking. Especially, community participation was considered a necessary element in the success of a national tourism policy. In this this study examined the concept of comunity participation in tourism policy, and attempted to develop an enlarged construct of its concept: participationin processes, participation in profit generation processes, and participation in the public education process. Case studies were implemented with this conceptual design. Moreover, based on the results of the case studies, thre policy agenda were raised and discussed: a systematic policy approach, realistic actions, and participation through processes. In conclusion, it was suggested that community participation in the national tourism policy should be perceived as an integrated action strategy toward collaboration.
