The Social Dimension Of Sustainable Development: Defining Tourism Social Sustainability

Abstract

The three dimension of Sustainable Tourism Development (STD), namely environmental, economic and social have been carried out with various approaches.

To implement STD properly and balanced, it is necessary to explore the social dimension of STDs to obtain a clear agreement on the concept of social dimension in STD, especially from Indonesia's perspective. The purpose of this study is to explore the boundaries of social dimension of STD. This research is an exploratory study that aims to develop knowledge that is still new in nature and to provide direction for future research and also to fill gaps or shortcomings of the concept and definition of social aspects within the framework of STD using a systematic literature review. The result of the study is a concept of social dimension of Sustainable Tourism Development.
