Tourism and Religion, Hardback Book

Tourism and Religion Hardback

Edited by Jafar Jafari

Part of the Tourism Social Science Series series

Hardback

Description

The interrelationship of religion and tourism has barely been touched upon in scholarly research.

This book aims to present and analyze this relationship from sociological, economic and anthropological perspectives.

The religious tourist and categories of religiously motivated tourism are delineated, and numerous contemporary issues worthy of attention and research are identified.

This provides insights into the relationship between tourism and religion: suppression or encouragement of one by the other; potential and actual conflicts; their mutual casualty and impact; the expression of religious feeling or freedom; the touristic determinants of pilgrimages, etc.

The author ends with his own observations and conclusions regarding the future of the relationship and its likely direction and development.
