• Sommario/riassunto: This book explores the paradox of increasing secularization in Western societies alongside a resurgence in pilgrimage site visits since the 1990s. It examines how the practices of visitors at Catholic pilgrimage sites blur the lines between pilgrimage and tourism, challenging traditional categories. Through a comparative study of spatial practices at pilgrimage sites in France, Spain, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, and Portugal, the book investigates the interplay between sacred value and spatial perception. These practices reveal the values visitors assign to these spaces, highlighting the dynamic between resistance and resilience in the sacred value of these sites. The work is grounded in geography and religious studies, aiming to understand the spatial impact of religious and tourist practices.
