Abstract

The purpose of this article is to study the viability and the appropriate model for balance and sustainable development of community-based tourism (CBT). The methods of documentary research and theoretical debates were used for the study. The concept of balance is comprised of economic, social and environmental dimensions, and the concept of sustainability consists of self-reliance, immunity and resilience. In order that the balance and sustainable development of CBT is feasible, it is necessary for the application and integration of sufficiency economy philosophy (SEP) into the operation process under conditions of community members’ cooperation and shared benefits.
