This can be answered any number of ways depending on one's point of view.
In my opinion, the main conflict in Shoeless Joe is that of Imagination / Dreams vs. Reality.
The recurring question among the characters in the novel is, "What is Real?" and "What is True?"
There certainly are many other possibilities including "Organized Religion vs. Faith" and "Nature vs. Progress."
