Abstract

In the development of sustainable tourism, careful planning and comprehensive management are critical issues, particularly in relation to the potential social impacts arising from tourism activities. Tourists bring their cultures, values, and behaviors into local communities, inevitably influencing the social and economic life of the residents. To minimize these potential impacts, an effective management framework is required. One such framework is the concept of social carrying capacity, which serves not only as a measure of the optimal utilization of resources and tourism activities but also as a guideline for determining the maximum level of interaction and participation between local communities and tourists within a destination area.This study adopts a qualitative descriptive approach using a case study method focused on Serangan Village, Bali. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation to analyze how tourism development and reclamation have affected social life and community behavior. The analysis was conducted descriptively to explore how social carrying capacity can function as a framework for controlling the social impacts of tourism. The findings are expected to contribute to the formulation of community-based tourism management strategies that promote social balance and sustainability in tourist destinations

Abstract

This study analyzes the May 2024 Indonesian Public Image Survey Report–LSI Denny JA in North Sinjai District, South Sulawesi, using a hermeneutic-critical approach based on Ricoeur and Habermas. The results show a complete absence of tourism (0.0%) from the narrative of community expectations, the lowest satisfaction with tourism management (63%), and the highest dissatisfaction with fishermen (44.8%). This phenomenon reflects chronic undertourism and the structural invisibility of tourism in the lifeworld of local communities. The paradox of high satisfaction (71.3%) amidst economic hardship (62.3%) provides a golden time window of 2025–2027. The study recommends a “Community First, Tourism Later” strategy with the empowerment of 1,000 fishing families, dual infrastructure, and a local-level INSTO-UNWTO pilot. North Sinjai has the potential to become a national model for transitioning from extreme undertourism to sustainable, inclusive and equitable micro-tourism.
