Imagining the contours of culture: is religious tourism a precondition for conflict?

Abstract: This chapter is based on a philosophical interrogation of religious tourism and conflict. It asks many questions about how religion acts and can act as a force for conflict or peace. Though it does not provide a definitive answer to a complex issue of this calibre, it holds the thesis that cultural difference is not reason enough for riots, political instability or conflict.
