2、better job opportunities.This paper assesses the attitude and perception of local residents toward this fast growing industry and also their expectation of authority regarding tourism development in Yazd city.A questionnaire was designed based on five point Likert scale and total 320 usable question
3、naires were collected from local residents.Though the result shows positive attitude of local people towards tourism development but they are not totally satisfied with tourism management in the area.Keywords:Tourism development,Yazd(Iran),Local residents,Attitude.INTRODUCTION In general residents a
4、ttitudes towards tourism development can be improved by increasing both tangible and intangible benefits that these populations receive from involving directly in decision-making processes. As Choi & Sirakaya (2006) indicate host community attitudes towards tourism is one of important indicators for
5、 sustainable tourism development. A number of factors can influence residences perceptions about benefits of tourism development and, hence, the extent of their support. Both community participation and recognition of the role of traditional values consistently have been recognized as a fundamental
6、to the success of development projects (Alexander 2000). Stakeholder involvement in the tourism development is a critical factor for success, yet there are many examples of local communities being excluded or only minimally involve in the initial planning and management (Hough 1998; Jacobson 1991; W
7、est &Brechin 1991; Heinen 1993; Durbin & Ralambo 1994). There are different levels of people in community which need different levers for motivation and satisfaction which should be identified. Negative attitudes towards tourism development often arise from poor relationship between local resident a
8、nd authority, problems with distributions of benefits to local population and lack of local involvement in the decision - making and/ or management. The key to successful implementation of tourism programs is in actively addressing relevant factors with residence who traditionally have been ignored
9、but who today are recognized as the main stakeholders in the process. The study aimed to identify residence a) attitude and perceptional towards tourism development, b) feeling about management of tourism in the area, c) involvement in tourism sector and receiving tangible and intangible benefits an

LITERATURE REVIEW As travel and tourism industries are among the words fastest growing industries and are the major source of foreign exchange earning for many developing countries (Megan Epler Wood 2002),
11、 it is very important to study socioeconomic impact of these industries. Community participation, a Western paradigm in natural resource management and utilization, is currently much discussed in sustainable tourism development research (Agrawal 2000, Archabald and Naughton-Treves 2001, Brohman 1996
12、, Inskeep 1991, Prentice 1993, Simmons 1994 and Straede and Helles 2000). It is thought that only when local communities are involved in decision- making, can their benefits be ensured and their traditional lifestyles and values respected (Gunn 1994, Lankford and Howard 1994, Linderberg and Johnson
13、1997, Mitchell and Reid 2001, Sheldon and Abenoja 2001, Timothy 1999 and Wells 1996). Ashley and Roe (1998) suggest that tourism can involve and affect local residents without being driven and controlled by community and therefore there can be many forms of their involvement. These may include a ran
14、ge of involvement from passive to active and include lease agreement, concessions, partnership and active involvement in businesses. Involvement of local community can have many positive incomes include: a) public values and opinions are incorporated in the decision - making process ( Beierle 1998,
15、Carmin, Darnall & Mil Homens 2003) b) new ideas are generated (Carmin, Darnall & Mil Homens 2003, Fiorino 1990) c) empowerment of community (Scheyvens 1999) d) a cost effective process ( Beierle 1998) e) a reduction in conflict and lawsuits (Beierle 1998, Carmin, Darnall & Mil Homens 2003, Simrell K
16、ing & Feltey 1998, Steelman 2001). Usually the local government is responsible to introduce and implement the program in the area but there is seldom perfect relationship between key stakeholders. Finding out the local resident attitude towards tourism development can be a proper way to understand t
17、he success of the program in the area that have been previous ly discussed by researcher such as Ross (1992), Ryan &Montgomery (1994), Mac Cool & Martin (1994), Hernandez et al (1996), Lankford (1994) and Lankford & Howard (1994). All these studies shows local people have more positive attitude towa
18、rds tourism develo pment when they have right to involve in decision- making and management of the programs. Unfortunately there is lack of research on tourism development in the selected study area which leads to a sustainable tourism development. STUDY AREA Officially the Islamic Republic of Iran
