This book is a study of contemporary Buddhist-Christian encounter
in Thailand. Case studies, which include a Buddhist nationalist
group, a charismatic church movement, and a village community,
describe the variety and nature of Buddhist-Christian relations.
Arising issues - nationalism, identity, notions of the religious
other - are discussed with regard to Thai history and modern
society. The book also highlights cultural notions of avoidance and
the Buddhist concept of friendship as Thai offerings to the field
of interreligious dialogue. The study is based on qualitative
research and draws on different academic disciplines, including
religious studies, theology, and political studies. It makes a
distinctive contribution to the fields of Thai Studies and global
Buddhist-Christian Studies.
