Description About the author Contents
 
Engaged Buddhism is founded on the belief that genuine spiritual practice requires an active involvement in society . "Engaged Buddhism in the West" illustrates the evolution of this newest chapter in the Buddhist tradition- including its history, leadership and teachings- and addresses issues such as violence and peace, race and gender, homelessness, prisons, and the environment.
Twenty new studies explore the activism of renowned leaders and organizations such as Thich Nhat Hanh, Bernard Glassman, Joanna Macy, the Buddhist Peace Fellowship, and the Free Tibet movement, and the emergence of a new Buddhism in North America, Europe, South Africa, and Australia.
