The Dharma and Socially Engaged Buddhist Economics

Viac o knihe

The book presents an "Engaged Buddhist" perspective on economics, addressing the harmful impacts of global capitalism. It explores how Buddhist concepts of greed, aversion, and ignorance can inform socio-political issues, advocating for both internal self-examination and external economic reform. By integrating traditional Buddhist practices with John Dewey's pragmatic social principles and institutional economics, the author offers a framework for transforming dysfunctional systems. Case studies from Thailand and Bhutan illustrate practical applications of Buddhist-inspired socioeconomic policies.
