Description

Explore the rapid growth and transformation of Buddhism within the Australian landscape. As the fastest growing religion in the country, Buddhism has seen its presence nearly double in recent decades. This scholarly work from the Routledge Critical Studies in Buddhism series provides a deep analysis of how these traditions arrive and localize in a modern context. By examining the impact of globalization, this book looks at how Australia's proximity to Asia facilitates a constant movement of people, ideas, and practices. It provides a clear look at the flow of commodities and cultural elements from neighboring countries that shape the religious environment. Whether you are a student of religious studies or interested in social trends, this text offers a detailed perspective on how ancient traditions adapt to a new geographic setting.
