Individual enlightenment and social responsiblity: on the sociological interpretations of the Holy Monk Khruba Boonchum
(Assumption University Press, 2018)
This paper will assess some sociological interpretations of
Theravada Buddhism and Holy Monks which rely on such
concepts as charisma, millenarianism and utopianism. In
the past, sociologiests like Weber and Murti misinterpreted
Buddhism as focusing upon individual enlightenment
rather than the welfare of society. But these interpretations
of Theravāda Buddhism overlook that the Buddhist
concept of enlightenment has a deep relationship with
social development and social responsibilities. Buddhism
has a highly developed sociological bas...
Human autonomy and the overcoming of alienation in immaterial labor with reference to Zen Buddhism
(Assumption University Press, 2018)
This paper, will be a reflection on the changes in labor and
alienation in the information age. It will focus specifically
on the concept of immaterial labor and how this effects
human autonomy and the consciousness of alienation. The
paper will trace these concepts from the writings of Marx,
to the approaches of Hardt and Negri and Franco “Bifo”
Berardi. It will then show how the shortcomings of these
theories which concern human autonomy in the face of the
alienation of material labor can be complemented by the
insights into practice...

Developing interreligious dialogue in Myanmar: reflections on the Vatican document educating to intercultural dialogue in Catholic Schools
(Assumption University Press, 2018)
For the Roman Catholic Church beginning with Vatican
II, interreligious dialogue has been promoted as an
instrument to obtain mutual understanding. This has been
outlined in the document Nostra Aetate. The Bishops
of Myanmar, fully aware that interreligious dialogue is
highly necessary for witnessing the gospel of Jesus Christ
in this Buddhist-majority nation, have taken steps in their
respective dioceses to further promote this approach. This
paper is an analysis of the ways this has been implemented.
It will show that a positive atti...
Fischer's semicompatibilism and its consequences
(Assumption University Press, 2018)
In this paper I argue that the symmetric approach to moral
responsibility, proposed by John Martin Fischer, should
be focused merely on the consequence-particular. Fischer
employs the symmetric approach with the intention to
solve the asymmetric problems on moral responsibility.
The problem arises from Frankfurt’s case, which rejects
the principle of alternate possibilities (PAP), and relies on
the action, rather than omission resulting in asymmetric
problems. Fischer solves the problem by using his guidance
control and returns the sym...
Ellul, Bataille, Zhuangzi & Technological Man
(Assumption University Press, 2017)
The impact of modern technological society on the human
spirit and on human values is undeniable. But the ability to
philosophically engage with this impact and also to gain
the means whereby we could evaluate it lucidly and soberly
is a whole other matter. It is difficult for us today to find
a place where we could stand outside the contemporary
cultural matrix that has come to create our very selves, so
as to identify and assess the aspects of our humanity that
have always managed to outstrip the cultural conditioning
and constructio...
Chantal Mouffe and religious pluralism: agonistic experiments in non-western societies
(Assumption University Press, 2017)
This paper examines questions regarding the alleviation
and management of religious conflict. It will first examine
the philosophical framework of Chantal Mouffe as a
response to Carl Schmitt’s critique of pluralism. Then it will
give examples of conflict resolution and the preservation
of diversity in such regions as, Lebanon, Indonesia
and Thailand. Finally, it will examine these examples as
exercises in “agonistics” as understood by Mouffe. This will
be shown to be a valuable framework for conflict resolution
and democracy in the AS...
Rene Guenon on the realization of traditional knowledge
(Assumption University Press, 2017)
This paper investigates the ‘metaphysical’ perspectives of
the French philosopher named René Guénon. Although
Guénon was French, he was often critical of Western
ways of thinking. Especially with regard to the concept of
the metaphysical. Turning to the etymology of the word
metaphysics, for Guénon metaphysics stands for whatever
lies ‘beyond physics.’ This is different than the Aristotelian
understanding of metaphysics, since it is always directed
to the idea of the natural sciences viewed as a whole. This
is a kind of thinking recogn...
Thomas Hobbes' concept of sovereignty and its relevance for Thailand and ASEAN
(Assumption University Press, 2017)
The paper’s objective is to analyze the concept of sovereignty
in political philosophy with special reference to Thomas
Hobbes for the purpose of understanding the changes facing
Thai sovereignty from the origin of the modern state to the
present time. Especially relevant is Hobbes’ distinction
between internal and external sovereignty. Internal
sovereignty can be used to understand the factionalism in
Thai society resulting to the escalation of tensions since 2005.
For the security of state, the Thai military staged a coup and
has tak...

Compassion and Catharsis
(2013)
This paper explores how compassion can lead to emotionally purifying
experiences from a philosophic-anthropological perspective.
My hypothesis is that compassion via catharsis can result in
forgiveness, provided that an adequate understanding of or for
compassion is employed. The investigation begins by briefly dealing
with the etymology of compassion by comparing Greek, Latin,
English, and German related terms. The second section focuses on
Aristotle!s understanding of compassion. According to his Poetics
and his Politics, compassion i...
THAI BUDDHISTS-MUSLIMS CUSTOMS IN DIALOGUE FOR PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE IN THE SOUTHERN THAILAND
(Assumption University, 2012)
The religiously and culturally or traditionally pluralistic harmony
and tolerance of Buddhists and Muslims in the southern part of Thailand
is the necessary condition for the ever lasting peace, for it is based on the
mutual respect for the diversity of pluralistic harmony between two religions.
Tolerance is the essential condition of harmony in Buddhism as
well as in Islam. Tolerance as the essence of sustainable harmony can be
conducted through the method of inter-religious dialogue of life. To solve
the problem in the Deep South of Th...
