Application of Weberian Concept to study the impact of cultural tourism in Local Community Development

Öz

Cultural tourism provides a promotional platform for the cultural and artistic traditions of any country. However, its contribution to employability and income is not optimally justified. The overarching research question is - in what ways the application of the Weberian concept would impact cultural tourism in local community development? The theoretical framework underpinning this study is the Weberian concept of formal and substantive rationality. Here, formal rationality is based on economic goals only, whereas substantive rationality relates to non-economic social goals such as improved quality of life and culture preservation. In this study, a qualitative cross-case analysis was adopted on two craft villages of Jharkhand, India. The results indicate the Weberian framework is a useful device for identifying the moderating effect of cultural tourism in local craft promotions and local community development.
