Abstract
Is tourism a generator of peace or simply the beneficiary of peace? This article questions the often-stated claim of tourism as the world's peace industry and asks whether there exists a causal relationship between tourism and peace or simply a co-relationship with tourism as a beneficiary, and not a cause, of peace.
