| Description |
Globalisation is the buzz word of our time. Its impact is profound. As capitol and labor, technology and skills, ideas and values cross boundaries, societies everywhere are undergoing rapid changes, some of which have far reaching implications. Countries in the Asia Pacific region in particular are right at the heart of this globalisation process.
While there have beennumerous meetings on the economic, developmental and technological dimensions of globalisation in recent years, the July 1997 conference organized by the International Movement for a Just World with the co-operation of the International Christian Peace Movement was one of those rare occasions which attempted to examine the impact of globalisation upon religious traditions and cultural communities. In fact, this was the first time that scholars and activists from all the major religions and cultures in Asia Pacific had come together to reflect upon this important issue.
This book contains all the papers presented at the conference as well as a brief summary of the lively discussion that took place in the workshops. Our hope is that it will stimulate further reflection, and contribute to the growing solidarity and dialogue between the diverse civilisational influences that make up the dynamic and unique region of the world that is Asia Pacific.
