Abstract:
This study aimed to analyze the various ways of achieving peace though tourism using the
methodology of descriptive analysis with the support of the secondary sources. The presence
of war was a detrimental experience in the establishment of peace. Anyhow, the absence of
war was not satisfactory for the community to be peaceful. Peace contains more positive
concept. The negative and positive peace could be achieved by the beneficiary of tourism,
but more positive impacts can be established by peace. The tourism has the leading
relationship of one way as well as two ways in the world arena since by establishing peace
within the country or among the countries; tourism industry can be promoted by attracting
more number of tourists into the countries and also to attract more number of tourists into
the countries from all over the world, peace should be established. It is another way of
promoting tourism which is leading to peace in any country in the world. Tourism should be
properly designed and implemented because it has both benefits and costs to local and
global economy, society, culture and environment. If all the actors operating in the tourism
sectors play their own role, tourism can gradually lead to peace. If the current one-way flow
of tourists from developed countries to developing countries is replaced by two-way flow of
tourists, host countries and guest countries can be interchangeable and can stand on an equal
footing. Tourism can lead peace when it is properly conducted by each actor and when more
people can have opportunities to be tourists.
