This study aims to describe the implications of socio-economic change caused by tourism development and to explore the relationship between society and tourism from a sociological perspective. By using a qualitative approach with a case study research design, this study analyses data that was obtained through observation, documentation, and interviews. The participants involved were the local community living in Keciput village, the Keciput village staff members, the Tanjung Kelayang Beach tourism manager, and the Belitung Regency tourism office staff members. The study found that the tourism development of Keciput village had caused changes in the social and economic life of the local communities. In terms of social life, the emergence of tourism development had caused interactions to decrease. Previously, when the interactions among the people were still very intense, the economy of the community was also on the rise. However, ever since the tourism development took place, it has changed the people’s type of livelihood: where previously they had worked as fishermen, they are now working as transport services fishermen. The economic value of tourist activities is also classified into a higher category because the yield from the marine sources is very dependent on the season.

Pembudidayaan kopi Arabika Gowa dimulai pada tahun 1989 dan pada tahun 1990an mulai banyak masyarakat setempat yang beralih profesi menjadi petani kopi. beralihnya masyarakat di Desa Ujung Bulu menjadi petani kopi disebabkan karena harga jual kopi lebih tinggi dibandingkan tanaman yang mereka tanam sebelumnya.

The gold mining company PTAMNT, which operates in West Sumbawa, discharges its mine waste into the middle of the sea using the deep sea tailing placement (DSTP) method. For local people, the presence of foreign goods is seen as dangerous for their economic life and health. The toxins in it can contaminate sea water and fish. Even though their life depends a lot on the sea. Therefore, society rejects its existence. This study questions the level of acceptance of the local community as well as the economic and health impacts of tailings dumping. This study uses a qualitative method, by putting forward case studies. Data collection used the method of observation, in-depth interviews, focused group discussion, and document searches. Initially, the economic life and health of the community were considered to be affected by tailings dumping. However, local people's understanding turned out to be dynamic. When the knowledge and experience of the community increases and is in different contexts, the perspective on tailings (DSTP) changes and can accept it. Their knowledge and experience shows that tailings dumping using the DSTP method does not have any (bad) impacts on both economic life and health. It was understood later that the real big problem for the local community was not tailings dumping and its impacts, but rather the existence of the mining company itself as a whole which was seen as not always giving significant meaning to daily economic and social life.

Peran ini menciptakan masyarakat penyandang disabilitas mampu mandiri untuk mencukupi kebutuhan hidup dan diterima oleh masyarakat desa. Namun perdebatan masih berlanjut tatkala cara pandang masyarakat yang kerap mengindentikkan penyandang disabilitas dengan ketidakmampuan untuk bekerja. Kondisi ini menyebabkan mereka sulit mencapai kemandirian secara ekonomi. Terlebih, untuk lingkungan masyarakat pedesaan, penyandang disabilitas masih sering dianggap sebagai kutukan dan aib keluarga. Hal ini menyebabkan mereka mengalami gangguan secara psikologis dan kesulitan untuk bersosialisasi. Untuk itu, tawaran menarik untuk menepis stigma diskriminatif tersebut membutuhkan langkah strategis pemerintah desa secara berkelanjutan.

The Vedic civilization (1500 – 1000 B.C) flourished in India after the Indus Valley Civilization. The people who evolved the Vedic culture called themselves Aryans. Their earliest literature makes no reference to life in stately cities comparable to those whose remains have been unearthed at Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. Their religion was normally aniconic, and in their pantheon the female element was subordinated to the male, and the place of honor was given to deities like Indra, Varuna, Mitra, Surya, Agni (fire) and other supernal beings who seem to have been quite unknown to the originator of the Indus culture([i]).The primary source of evidence for this period is the Rigveda. Rig Veda is considered to be the earliest collection of hymns available, For more than three thousand years the Rig-Veda have been looked upon as revealed words of God by millions of Hindus, and have formed the basis of their culture and religion amid continual changes and successive developments. The objective of the study is The origin of the Aryans, the Vedic literature, nature of early Vedic Civilization. And Political Organization, social and economic life of the Early Aryans. And The religion, philosophy of the Rig Vedic Aryans. However, in making certain observations on Early Vedic Society it may be fruitful to see if literary texts and archaeological evidence can supplement each other. If both types of sources are of the same region and of the same period, then they together can give us more detailed ideas on political social life.   ([i]) عبد العزيز الزكي، نشأة الفكر الهندي وتطوره في العصور القديمة، مجلة عالم الفكر، مجلد الأول، العدد 3، 1970، ص 232.

Tourism is one of the sector that manage to grow exponentially, it can be seen from the increase in the income of the country from tourism sector which is expected to support the country economic' growth (Ing Wu cited in Putri et al., 2018). Tourism development in Indonesia currently based on sustainable tourism development. This is happened because the policy of sustainable tourism development will use the natural resources and human resources for the long term (Sharpley, 2000). Bromo Tengger Semeru National park area is one of the 10 priority destination that is created by the Ministry of Tourism of Indonesia to expedite sustainable tourism development in Indonesia.As one of the main tourism destination in Indonesia, Bromo Tengger Semeru National park area has many attributes that can attract domestic and international tourists namely: the variety of attraction with more than 10 tourist attractions, local culture attribute, history and natural resources that become main attraction that define Bromo Tengger Semeru national park from other tourist destination. Those various attribute represents tourism in East Java as a whole (Rahajeng, 2008). The level of sustainable tourism can be measured based on three criteria namely: (1) There is no depletion of natural resources, (2) There is no pollution and other negative effect on the environment, (3) tourism activity must be able to increase usable resources and replaceable resources (The Ministry of Environment, 1990). Sustainable development must be based on the long term use of natural resources and continual nature preservation (Eko, 2019). Sustainable tourism development can only happened when the balance of ecology aspect of the tourism destination and social and economy of the local community is achieved while at the same time still authentic and environment friendly (Andres, 2018). Sustainable economically means long term investment that is done now must be useful for the future generation for the long term (Ivan, 2017). Tourism development is one of the main sources of environment degradation even though it brings positive effect for the wellbeing of the society. Tourism sector is one of the contributors of environmental damage when building new infrastructure causing pollution, farming area is changed to tourism infrastructure. In the social aspect the change of people source of livelihood, from farming to working in the tourism business, the change of the local culture, work ethics, the local culture is diminishing (there is no more architecture with traditional local style. Local community is also in the risk of getting too dependent on the tourism sector such as accommodation and restaurant business. The price of the land will be increasing due to a sudden need of land to build tourism infrastructure (Sumiati, 2018). In the social and culture aspect, the behavior of some of the people is changing, some of them will asked visitors to pay extra, forced visitors to do the activities that they are not interested to, and doing touting illegally which will disturb the visitors (Abimanyu, 2010). This practice will reduce visitors satisfaction, because honesty of the people who work in the tourism industry directly is one of the most important factor that influence visitors satisfaction (Andres and Artal-Tur, 2018). Keywords: Sustainable tourism management model, Ecotourism, National tourism development.
