Inhaltsangabe:
The twenty-five-hundred-year-old tradition of Jainism, which emphasizes nonviolence as the only true path leading to liberation, offers a worldview seemingly compatible with the goals of environmental activism.
But can Jainism adopt a sociocentric environmentalism without compromising its own ascetic principles and spiritual tradition? How does traditional Jain cosmology view the natural world? How might a Jain ethical system respond to decisions regarding the development of dams, the proliferation of automobiles, overcrowding due to overpopulation, or the protection of individual animal species? Can there be a Jain environmental activism that addresses both the traditional concern for individual self-purification and the contemporary dilemma of ecosystem degradation? The voices in this volume reflect the dynamic nature of the Jain faith and its willingness to engage in discussion on a modern social issue.

About the book >.>.> Religion distinguishes the human species from all others, just as human presence on earth distinguishes the ecology our planet from other places in the known universe. Religious life and the earth's ecology are inextricably linked, organically related. Human belief and practice mark the earth. One can hardly think of a natural system that has not been considerably altered, for better or worse, by human culture. "Nor is this the work of the industrial cen-turies," observes Simon Schama. "It is coeval with the entirety of our social existence. And it is this irreversibly modified world, from the polar caps to the equatorial forests, that is all the nature we have" (Landscape and Memory (New York: Vintage Books, 1996). 7). In Schama's examination even landscapes that appear to be most free of human culture turn out, on closer inspection, to be its product. Human beliefs about the nature of ecology are the distinctive con-tribution of our species to the ecology itself. Religious beliefs-especially those concerning the.
