商品描述

This book delves into topics on pilgrimage travel and communities from a variety of perspectives through academic research based on the Middle East, Northeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and Europe, where sacred sites have become of great importance for both international and domestic tourism. In particular, Europe and Asia possess a high volume of world-renowned pilgrimage sites that are currently being developed as tourism destinations in their respective countries, such as Santiago de Compostela (Spain), Lourdes (France), and Koyasan (Japan). This book includes studies on these two continents that harbor both a great history of pilgrimage tradition, as well as tourism development related to religious travel.

The book importantly covers the role of the community in religious tourism, as well as the impact on the locals, which is comparatively an unexplored area. Whilst pilgrimage is seen as an effective tool to revitalize local economies, this book also reveals the different challenges to achieving this goal.

Realizing the importance of the interrelationship of community and pilgrimage travel, as well as the lack of studies on it, this book seeks to address this research gap through 14 chapters divided into two parts, 'Communities and Constestation' and 'Pilgrimage Shaping Communities'. To ensure diverse perspectives, case studies from different Eurasian countries, written by authors with expertise in the study of pilgrimage and religious travel, are included. Readers can expect to gain new perspectives by having a deeper comprehension of the 'community side' of pilgrimage travel in Eurasia, and thus an integral understanding of contemporary pilgrimage

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書從學術研究的角度,探討了朝聖旅行和社群的各種觀點,研究地區包括中東、東北亞、印度次大陸和歐洲,這些地區的聖地對國際和國內旅遊業都具有重要意義。特別是歐洲和亞洲擁有眾多世界知名的朝聖地,目前正在各自國家開發成旅遊目的地,例如聖地亞哥-德孔波斯特拉(西班牙)、盧爾德(法國)和高野山(日本)。本書包括了對這兩大洲的研究,這兩大洲都擁有悠久的朝聖傳統和與宗教旅行相關的旅遊發展。

本書重要地涵蓋了社群在宗教旅遊中的角色,以及對當地居民的影響,這是一個相對未被探索的領域。雖然朝聖被視為振興地方經濟的有效工具,但本書也揭示了實現此目標所面臨的不同挑戰。

為了實現社群與朝聖旅行之間相互關係的重要性,以及對此領域缺乏研究的認識,本書分為兩個部分,「社群與爭議」和「塑造社群的朝聖」,共包含14個章節。為了確保多元的觀點,本書收錄了來自不同歐亞國家的案例研究,由在朝聖和宗教旅行研究領域具有專業知識的作者撰寫。讀者可以通過更深入地理解歐亞地區朝聖旅行的「社群面」,以及對當代朝聖的整體理解,獲得新的觀點。
