Articles that may have relevance to course content....
Trying to develop more of a Theravadin perspective as we move along... starting from the begining (8-fold path, establishment of Buddhist Ethics... Maybe I should have started with that rather than jumping in to Ashoka. But we can do this in a backward-buildup sort of way)
Susan M. Darlington -Rethinking Buddhism and Development: The emergence of Environmentalist Monks in Thailand. This article might fit well with the book Greg gave: Socially Engaged Buddhism by Sulak Sivaraksa.
Tessa Bartholomeusz - In Defense of Dharma: Just-War Ideology in Buddhist Sri Lanka.
Also possible to draw more and more context - I need some resources on the history of the conflict rather than just throwing these articles out to the students.
I need more grounding. :/
