This volume studies the evidence that; at particular moments in their history and in certain aspects of their doctrines; the traditions of Buddhism; like other religious traditions; have actively or passively promoted - and may continue to promote - violent modes of behavior or structural violence. The articles in this volume cover a broad spectrum of the Buddhist world in term of regions and periods. They deal with aspects of violence starting in India before the Common Era and ranging to the support of Japanese militarism by Buddhist leaders far into the 20th century.
