Interdisciplinary in its approach, this book explores the
dilemmas that Buddhism faces in relation to the continuing ethnic
conflict and violence in modern Sri Lanka. Prominent scholars in
the fields of anthropology, history, Buddhist studies and Pali
examine multiple dimensions of the problem. Buddhist responses to
the crisis are discussed in detail, along with how Buddhism can
help to create peace in Sri Lanka. Evaluating the role of Buddhists
and their institutions in bringing about an end to war and violence
as well as possibly heightening the problem, this collection puts
forward a critical analysis of the religious conditions
contributing to continuing hostilities.
