Tibetan Buddhism in Diaspora

<p>This book analyses the nature of the Tibetan Buddhism in the Diaspora. It examines how the re-signification of Tibetan Buddhist practices and organizational structures in the present refers back to the dismantlement of the Tibetan state headed by the Dalai Lama and the fragmentation of Tibetan Buddhist religious organizations in general. It includes extensive multi-sited fieldwork conducted in the United States Brazil Europe and Asia and a detailed analysis of contemporary documents relating to the global spread of Tibetan Buddhism. </p>
