Abstract

Purpose This study aims to analyze the time perspective of members of society in the post-COVID-19 era and how it changed their attitudes and behaviors and explore the meaning of tourism in the consumption of time resources with the function and role of local oral history study.
 Methods The contents of the literature on the social composition process of time and its meaning were reviewed and analyzed to explore the possibility of developing local tourism resources based on local oral history. The historical meaning of time-related research was examined as an exploratory research before conducting tourism research based on local oral history. Some implications were suggested on how this social philosophical discussion in terms of humanities and social science could be applied to developing local resources in tourism, an applied science.
 Results Local oral history study on local history and culture based on a new time perspective in postmodern society helps reflect on the forming and reconstructing of various cultural boundaries in the production and consumption of the local community. As the expansion of tourism based on various local oral histories helps tourists to combine one-dimensional regression to the past, reflection on the present, and imagination of the future, local oral history is given the broad sense of tourism resource development that mitigates cultural boundaries in the post-COVID-19 era.
 Conclusion The reflection on local history that helps newly remember the characteristics of a region through local oral history helps develop convergence tourism which newly emerges in the production and consumption of the local community culture. Also, local oral history has important theoretical and practical social meanings as it is considered as a new type of alternative tourism to people and promotes an active reconstruction of human behavior.
