The Hamburger Gesellschaft für Thaiistik e.V. and the Numata Zentrum für Buddhismuskunde in cooperation with the Thaiistik section of the Department for languages and cultures of Southeast Asia invite you to a presentation by Prof. Dr. Alexander Horstmann of Tallinn University Estonia. The presentation will especially discuss the meaning of the rise of religious nationalism for the fragile semi-democratic opening and for the future of the multi-religious Myanmar and especially for the peace process in the ethnic minority regions. It will also discuss the role of Buddhist political activism in the Theravada Buddhist world and Islamophobia in particular.
Please join us on 10.01.2019, 18:15 in AAI, Eastern Wing, Rm. 123 for this highly topical presentation.
