Abstract
ABSTRACT With the rapid expansion of rural tourism development, a phenomenon has emerged where migratory villages are being relocated and restructured to capitalise on tourism resources. In this context, community participation is crucial for ensuring sustainable tourism development. However, previous studies have neglected the evolutionary process of community participation due to static data collection. This study employed path-dependence theory and Tosun's typological framework to explore the evolution of community participation in tourism within a migratory village: Simatai new village. This case study revealed stages of path preformation, development, dynamics, and new path creation, while also considering external influences and varying levels of engagement throughout the process. The findings highlight the importance of continuous negotiation and adjustment in community participation in developing tourism in a migratory village. This study offers valuable insights for promoting sustainable development in community participation within rural tourism destinations.
