Community empowerment also has several principles in its implementation, namely awareness of the community, providing education and training, organizing, developing strengths, and developing dynamics (decisions in the hands of the community itself). Community empowerment is focused on various aspects related to people's lives as a nation's society, namely empowerment in the fields of education, economy, socio-culture, psychology, and politics in the era of the digital economy. Through literature studies and qualitative approaches aimed to examine and interpret the events related to policies and the role of government, then compare to Islamic governments in the past. In the era of Amirul Mukminin bin Al-Khattab as the second caliph, he ran the government firmly but was very sensitive to his people. The policies, that he issued, were for the benefit of the people, not only Muslims but also all citizens who live in the authority of Umar's caliphate. These policies in community empowerment during Umar's time should be interpreted in the current context. The era is known as the digital age, of course, it needs to modify the policies of the previous era so that they can be relevant and able to be implemented in real terms.Keywords: Government Policy, Community Empowerment, Digital Economy Era.ABSTRAKArtikel ini menyoroti peran dan kebijakan pemerintah dan jajarannya dalam menjalankan tugas atau fungsi pemberdayaan masyarakat, termasuk mengidentifikasi faktor pendukung dan penghambat proses pemberdayaan masyarakat.

Kebijakan-kebijakan yang dikeluarkannya adalah untuk kemaslahatan umat, tidak hanya umat muslim tetapi juga seluruh warga yang berada dalam naungan kekhalifahan Umar. Kebijakan-kebijakan dalam pemberdayaan masyarakat di masa Umar tersebut patut diintepretasikan pada konteks sekarang. Zaman yang dikenal dengan zaman digital tentu perlu modifikasi kebijakan era dulu, sehingga dapat relevan dan mampu diterapkan secara nyata.Kata Kunci: Kebijakan Pemerintah, Pemberdayaan Masyarakat, Era Ekonomi Digital.

One of the processes carried out by the government and the community to manage existing resources through collaboration between the government and the private sector is one of the meanings of economic development. This is done in the context of creating job opportunities as well as efforts to encourage economic growth in a region. Thus, it is important for the government and the community to play a role in solving macroeconomic problems. The final objective of this research is to analyze in depth the concept of the three-sector economy, the rationality of the role of government and society, the scope of the government's role, government policy instruments and an overview of al-hisbah. This study uses a literature study where information is obtained through a collection of books, a collection of scientific works, several theses, encyclopedias, a little information from the internet and even other sources. Research shows that in the economy three sectors are played by 3 roles including households, companies and the government. The rationality of the government's role is based on the consequences of collective obligations, and the failure of the market to realize falah. The analysis of the government's role includes: the role of allocation, distribution, stabilization, the role of the state in overcoming externalities and the role of the state related to the implementation of Islamic morality. There are also three policies that cover, among others: fiscal policy, monetary policy, and supply-side policy. Some basic thinking about the role of society consists of the consequences of fardhu kifayah, the existence of public property rights and the failure of the market and government. While hisbah is an institution controlled by the government through individual efforts specifically assigned to solve problems related to the moral, religious and economic fields.

The data analysis technique uses triaggulation technique, which is a technique for checking the validity of data that utilizes something different outside the data for the need to check the comparison of the same data from other sources. The results showed that the interest of tourists is still a local tourist, this is due to a number of factors such as inadequate facilities and infrastructure, such as lack of accessibility, lack of promotion, and others. The role of the government is currently trying to provide support, one of which is improving road access to the tour. Furthermore, efforts that can be made by the government are establishing cooperation with the local community for the construction of facilities and infrastructure, improving accessibility and promoting local wisdom and traditions to attract visitors. The development of environment-based tourism or ecotourism can be a guide in making use of the tourism sector and can be used as an attraction of an area to increase regional income (PAD).
