The question applies both to the violation of basic rights in Buddhist countries and to the defence of those rights which are well-grounded in Buddhist teachings.The volume provides academic essays that reflect this up to now rather neglected issue from the point of view of the three main Buddhist traditions, Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana. It provides multi-faceted and surprising insights into a rather unlikely relationship. 330 1 $a»[The] transdisciplinary, transcultural, and transreligious approach is the strong point of this book.« 410 4$aDer Mensch Im Netz der Kulturen - Humanismus in der Epoche der Globalisierung / Being Human: Caught in the Web of Cultures - Humanism in the Age of Globalization 517 2 $aMeinert/Zöllner (eds.), Buddhist$eDissonances and Resonances 606 $aBuddhism 606 $aHuman Rights 606 $aIntercultural Studies 606 $aCultural Clash 606 $aBurma 606 $aThailand 606 $aChina 606 $aTibet 606 $aHuman 606 $aReligion 606 $aReligious Studies 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aAsia 615 4$aBuddhism 615 4$aHuman Rights 615 4$aIntercultural Studies 615 4$aCultural Clash 615 4$aBurma 615 4$aThailand 615 4$aChina 615 4$aTibet 615 4$aHuman 615 4$aReligion 615 4$aReligious Studies 615 4$aSociology of Religion 615 4$aAsia 676 $a294.337 702 $aMeinert$b Carmen$p
