The contributors consider the meanings of pilgrimage in Christian, Mormon, Hindu, Islamic and Sufi traditions, as well as in secular contexts, and they create a new theory of pilgrimage as a form of voluntary displacement. This voluntary displacement helps to constitute cultural meaning in a world constantly 'en route'. Pilgrimage, which works both on global economic and individual levels, is recognised as a highly creative and politically charged force intimatelyAnthropology of religionPilgrims and pilgrimagesShrinesUrban anthropologyElectronic books.Anthropology of religion.Pilgrims and pilgrimages.Shrines.Urban anthropology.203.51291.351Coleman Simon642065Eade John271702AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910463463303321Reframing Pilgrimage2065436UNINA
