Summary: | Currently, local development plays an important role in the sustainable development of the country and is the
driving force to ensure social stability. Many studies show that local development is influenced by different factors.
Therefore, identifying the factors that affect local development is essential. Among the factors that affect local
development, the community is identified as having a strong influence and bringing many benefits to local development
in many different aspects. The goal of the paper is to determine the relationship between the community and local
development using a systematic theoretical research method. The author analyzed the data collected through the
Scopus database and a theoretical study based on the available research literature. The research results from the
review of the literature indicate that the community and local development have a close relationship. Furthermore, the
community plays an important role in sustainable local development according to many different criteria. Communities
influence local development in the terms of the development of the economic, poverty alleviation, and in the terms of
sustainability in the use of local resources, improving the well-being of individuals, protecting the environment and
landscape, etc. The presented results contribute to promoting research on the relationship between community and
local development.
