Anthropology Dissertation Research Survey

Time of past OR future Camino
I am planning to walk the Camino for the first time, from Leon to Santiago, starting in mid-January 2016!
Hi all,

I am doing my anthropological dissertation research on the Camino Pilgrimage at Oxford Brookes University. I would love it if some of you might fill out my questionnaire? The aim of this study is to investigate the various understandings of the Camino Pilgrimage, what drives pilgrims to make the journey, how their Camino experiences have affected their everyday lives, and where these understandings fit within the larger social and religious contexts of pilgrimage and pilgrimage studies. I would really appreciate it if some of you might take part, as I need responses for my work. I would be happy to send you a hard copy or e-copy of the research once it has been published?

You can find information and the questionnaire[FONT=Arial, sans-serif] at[/FONT]

Many thanks and bien Camino!

Hi Chloe, I have sent you a pm as we are both attached to Brookes.
Buen camino!
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc
I also answered and sent you the questionnaire.
Good luck!
 
I hope all of the Camino Pilgrims help you on your journey too.

Hey Cloe!
My name is Radek.
I'm doing research in psychology and philosohpy about inner experience of Camino. Maybe we could enrich each others

 
Chloe and Radek, have either of you published the results of your research? I was googling anthropology and the Camino de Santiago just to see what's out there and this post was the top result. I'd be interested to see where things took you and what conclusions you were able to gather. I'm sure some others here might be interested as well.
 
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Same question here! Chloe, Radek, if you know of any completed anthropological/related studies on the Camino, i'd be very interested to read. Thanks a lot. Julija
