The goal of regional tourism policy can be achieved by the activation of the regional area based on the cooperation of local residents, self-governing community, governments, and other related communities. Here, for the development and growth of the self-governing community's tourism, the social consent is needed. Hence, this study aims at the building of the regional innovation system based on the formation of social capital; and the construction of the regional tourist governance system through the cooperation and partnership among the innovation subjects. For this purpose, this study draws the causal relationship using a structure equation based on the research model. As a result, the community social capital has a positive influence on the regional innovation system (RIS) and RIS is significantly related to the construction of tourism governance. In detail, both cooperation of the social capital and the education for the residents have a significant influence on RIS, which in turn affects regional tourism governance including participations, transparency, trust for cooperation, establishment of the foothold and the capacity of the participants in general way. That is, the establishment of the regional tourism governance will be possible according to the settlement of the regional innovation capacity, confidence and cooperation.
