Social Change And Environmental Development Policy (Case Study: Tourism Village As A Tourism Destination In Yogyakarta)

Abstract

The implementation of development that is not environmentally sound can have a negative impact on the phenomena and real conditions of social change. The implementation of development that is not environmentally sound can shift the main goal of the development of a nation, which in essence, is to improve the welfare of society; for being indoctrinated by socio-political and economic interests. Policies such as regional autonomy, give positive indications, where local governments have special authority to manage the government and implementation of development in their respective regions. This authority is also followed by the responsibility so that local governments can increase their respective regional revenues, in order to finance the implementation of government and the implementation of development. Various efforts need to be made by the local government and its citizens, to always explore and optimize the potential and resources in the regions. Efforts to increase the income of this area, the advantage is not only to finance the implementation of government and the implementation of development, but also to participate in improving the standard of living and welfare of residents. One concrete example of policies related to environmentally sound development that have been implemented in various parts of the country is the creation of tourist villages as tourist destinations. Tourist destinations are not only an example of environmentally sound development policies that preserve the environment, but provide social impact and social change in many aspects of people’s lives, because they create a new space of science, discussion, habits, and culture that is synergistic and continues to provide better changes to the region.
