It is a good idea to chose paddy field tourist attractions because village Pematang Johar have the potential paddy fields with total area of 1750 Hectares. This study attempts to look at the process of rationalizing undertaken by governments in the village Pematang Johar tourism so as paddy field tourism program is received by society as community empowerment efforts. The rationalizing process would be seen from the perspective of governmentality offered by Michel Foucault in which includes the practice of the reason of government. As for the methodology used the genealogy by collecting data in-depth interviews, observations and documentations. The results showed that the Pematang Johar Village Government practiced government reasoning by internalizing tourism ideas to community leaders through the process of “discussion ideas”. In addition, the Pematang Johar Village Government also promises welfare to the village community by providing paddy field tourism.
