Summary / Abstract (Note) | The year 2017 became a watershed in the history of Buddhism as a religion, culture and a way of life. Myanmar’s military launched a campaign of violence against the Rohingya minority which according to UN experts amounted to a genocide that led to more than seven hundred thousand civilians fleeing to Bangladesh. This was the most concentrated flight of refugees since the Rwanda genocide of 1994. |
