Abstract

The transformational effects of tourism on livelihoods, land use and lifestyles and the related inter-generational effects often signal irreversible shifts that put local-level communities at risk in the event of a tourism slowdown are under acknowledged concerns. The economic impetus to develop pilgrimage tourism resonates and this often takes place within sociopolitical milieu that can have overriding effects on the success or failure of this enterprise. The query as to whose voice predominates and underlines policy and planning regarding pilgrimage tourism remains pertinent. What is certain is that the push for pilgrimage travel will intensify as travellers seek to find more meaning in their travels. The questions about the extent to which host communities benefit from ensuing development is poised to become a bigger concern.
