COLLABORATIVE GOVERNANCE IN LOCAL WISDOM-BASED TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN BAU-BAU CITY.

The cultural and historical heritage of the past Buton Kingdom/Sultanate in Baubau City and the coastal and hilly areas is truly an extraordinary gift from God. This city has also grown as a modern city wrapped in local wisdom and has become a great narrative for many people that Baubau is a cultural tourism city with its stunning natural panorama. However, this great gift has not made the tourism sector a mainstay for obtaining Regional Original Income. This is the main basis for researchers to seek, find and provide solutions to this problem. The collaborative governance theory approach from Ansel and Gash is a basis for viewing the initial conditions of Baubau City tourism management, then the design formula for its development, collaboration techniques, and leadership commitment in the area. This telescope shows that there is a relationship of power and knowledge in viewing this problem, so that the views of philosopher Michel Foucault also become a struggle of thought for researchers to trace the traces of thought about solving various problems with a philosophical approach and way of thinking. The accumulation of thinking between collaborative theory with discourse of power and knowledge related to the utilization of local wisdom and brilliance of Buton society such as sarapataanguna values, limbo system, directs this research to find the governance of Baubau City tourism development with a 'panopticon' design as a new paradigm for tourism development in this city. At the same time, it is found that the momentum of tourism based on local wisdom in Baubau City has benefits for humanity and the environment universally. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
