Tibetan Buddhism in Diaspora
The imperialist ambitions of China – which invaded Tibet in the late 1940s – have sparked the spectacular spread of Tibetan Buddhism worldwide, and especially in western countries. This work is a study on the malleability of a particular Buddhist tradition; on its adaptability in new contexts. The book analyses the nature of the Tibetan Buddhism in the Diaspora. It examines how the re-signification of Tibetan Buddhist practices and organizational structures in the present refers back to the dismantlement of the Tibetan state headed by the Dalai Lama and the fragmentation of Tibetan Buddhist religious organizations in general. It includes extensive multi-sited fieldwork conducted in the U...

Religion in 50 Words
Religion in 50 Words: A Critical Vocabulary is the first of a two-volume work that seeks to transform the study of religion by offering a radically critical perspective. It does so by providing a succinct and critical examination of the key words used in the modern study of religion. Arranged alphabetically, the book explores the historic roots, varied uses, and current significance and utility of the technical terms used within the current field of religious studies. These are the terms that both students and scholars routinely deploy to think about, describe, and analyze data—sometimes without realizing that they are themselves technical tools in need of attention. Among the topics covered: Belief Critical Culture Definition Environment Gender Ideology Lived religion Material religion Orthodoxy Politics Race Sacred/profane Secular Theory This book submits all of its terms to a critical interrogation and subsequent re-description, thereby allowing a collective reframing of the field. This volume is an indispensable resource for students and academics working in religious studies.

Responsabilidade civil e direito de família
A obra coletiva "Diálogos entre Responsabilidade civil e direito de família: O Direito de danos na parentalidade e conjugalidade", consiste em mais um empreendimento do Instituto Brasileiro de Estudos de Responsabilidade Civil (IBERC), aqui estruturado no sentido de sistematizar as ainda imprecisas fronteiras entre as duas disciplinas no direito brasileiro. Para tanto, os coordenadores Nelson Rosenvald, Ana Carolina Brochado Teixeira e Renata Vilela Multedo optaram por fracionar o conteúdo de 36 artigos em três eixos temáticos. O primeiro eixo: "responsabilidade civil na parentalidade" ilustra os potenciais ilícitos e danos decorrentes de relações filiais; o segundo eixo explora a "responsabilidade civil na conjugalidade", evidenciando hipóteses diversas que dão ensejo à obrigação de indenizar tendo como ponto de partida o cenário das relações amorosas. Finalmente, o último eixo "a reconstrução da responsabilidade civil nas famílias contemporâneas" avança sobre os desafios da conjugação entre o direito de danos e a complexidade das múltiplas formações familiares.
Manual of Romance Languages in Africa
With more than two thousand languages spread over its territory, multilingualism is a common reality in Africa. The main official languages of most African countries are Indo-European, in many instances Romance. As they were primarily brought to Africa in the era of colonization, the areas discussed in this volume are thirty-five states that were once ruled by Belgium, France, Italy, Portugal, or Spain, and the African regions still belonging to three of them. Twenty-six states are presented in relation to French, four to Italian, six to Portuguese, and two to Spanish. They are considered in separate chapters according to their sociolinguistic situation, linguistic history, external language policy, linguistic characteristics, and internal language policy. The result is a comprehensive overview of the Romance languages in modern-day Africa. It follows a coherent structure, offers linguistic and sociolinguistic information, and illustrates language contact situations, power relations, as well as the cross-fertilization and mutual enrichment emerging from the interplay of languages and cultures in Africa.
