STRATEGI AKTOR LOKAL DALAM PENGEMBANGAN DESA WISATA BUDAYA: STUDI PADA DESA WISATA BUDAYA WUKIRSARI, IMOGIRI, BANTULNIM.: 22102030061Muhammad Fuad HasanauthorThis study discusses the strategies carried out by local actors in the development of the Wukirsari Cultural Tourism Village using the Actor-Network Theory (ANT) approach. This research is motivated by the development of culturebased tourism villages that not only play a role in cultural preservation, but also contribute to improving the welfare of local communities, tourism managers, MSME actors, and cultural artists. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation to understand the roles and relationships among actors in the development process of the Cultural Tourism Village. Data analysis was conducted using the concept of Actor-Network Theory, which emphasizes the interconnectedness between human and non-human actors in forming the tourism village development system. The results of this study indicate that local actors become the main driving force in the development process, and that local actor strategies based on culture can serve as social and economic capital for the community. The strategies implemented include institutional strengthening, the development of educational tourism, preservation of local traditions, digital promotion, and the development of culture-based MSMEs. From the perspective of ANT, the development process takes place through the stages of problematization, interessement, enrolment, and mobilization. The impacts arising from the implementation of local actor strategies can also be seen in three aspects, namely social impacts, cultural impacts, and economic impacts.338.4 Industri Pariwisata2026-05-25UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS DAKWAH DAN KOMUNIKASIThesis
