Global Civilization : A Buddhist-Islamic Dialogue, Paperback / softback Book

Global Civilization : A Buddhist-Islamic Dialogue Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

"Global Civilization" emerged from a series of conversations between two peace advocates of Japanese and Iranian origin.

It covers the encounters between Buddhist and Islamic civilizations from the 7th century to the present.

For all their cultural differences, Buddhism and Islam share a surprising number of intrinsic similarities.

The topics discussed include such diverse subjects as the nature of religious faith today, global ideological terrorism, religious fanatacism and universal human rights.

Ikeda and Tehranian, two important representatives of their respective faiths, propose dialogue as the most effective method of conflict resolution at interpersonal, intra-national and international levels.

It is a call for tolerance, for dialogue and for peace.
