According to its nature and intent, religious identity is almost the most important part of human identity and plays a determinant role in the process of identity-building in the society. It could be said that enforcement of this identity would guide to the stability of other parts of human identity as a whole, while any disturbance in religious identity would cause crisis in it. This is especially correct in the communities within which religion plays a crucial role in the social structuring. The present study discusses the outputs of an empirical investigation and thus attempts to show the affecting factors on the matter. We have studied 400 junior students in Shiraz’s high school, including girls and boys. Results show that 88 percent of the students have high sense of religious identity, while just 4 percent feel crisis in this field.

This paper tends to study tourism attitudes among the youth. It argues that in studying tourism among the youth, it is necessary to consider youth’s other behavioral factors in addition to the youth subculture. Therefore, we should study the youth culture from the view point of “Consumption”. In this view, youth tourism is equal to consumption of time, space and signs. Using ongoing theoretical debates and division, we would attempt to explore various factors of youth tourism. This article shows that youth tourism and youth culture are so mutually interconnected that we should comprehend youth tourism based on youth culture and vise versa. In conclusion, analyzing the youth subculture which is rooted in their consumption attitudes, the study attempts to understand youth tourism.
