Abstract

This study aimed at identifying local genius empowerment as socio-cultural capital to develop tourism in Nusa Penida, Bali province by using a cultural ethnographic study approach. The respondents in this study were determined through snowball sampling. The result showed that there were various forms and types of local potentiality which can be used as objects and supporting capacity for developing tourism in Nusa Penida District; local genius in the community has not been optimally empowered to develop tourism, and the local potentialities have not yet been socialized as interesting tourist objects. The result implies a need for a new approach in socializing to the supporting community for empowering local potentialities as socio-cultural capital to support tourism development in Nusa Penida; and a need for an academic text for the basis in formulating policies in developing a more dignified and sovereign tourism.
