Sinopsis

To the surprise of many, the Dalai Lama recently declared that, ',I am a socialist',.áWhile many Buddhists and socialists would be perplexed at the suggestion that their approaches to life share fundamental principles, important figures in the Buddhist tradition are increasingly framing contemporary social and economic problems in distinctly socialist terms. In this novel and provocative work, Terry Gibbs argues that the shared values expressed in each tradition could provide signposts for creating a truly humane, compassionate and free society.áHopeful about our potential to create the &lsquo,good society&rsquo, through collective effort,áWhy the Dalai Lama is a Socialistáis grounded in the fundamental belief that everyday human activity makes a difference.
