GOI Scholarship for John O'Laoidh - South Korean Buddhist, National and Gender identities and their Implications for the Spread of Contemporary Korean Sŏn (Zen) in European contexts | PI | Irish Research Council (IRC) / Government of Ireland Postgraduate Scholarship | My research will focus on how contemporary South Korean Sŏn (Zen) Buddhists interact with non-Koreans in selected European countries compared to in South Korea. There is what the French scholar Bernard Faure calls, a ‘rhetoric of Zen’ (A Cultural Critique of Chan/ Zen Buddhism’, Princeton University Press, 1991) which is common to all the national Zen traditions (Japanese Zen, Korean Sŏn and Chinese Chán). As Christoph Anderl acknowledges in his introduction to ‘Zen Buddhist Rhetoric in China, Korea and Japan’ (Brill Publications, 2012), there are culturally-bound “linguisitc and rhetorical devices and ‘rhetorical modes’ that have been used in Chán, Sŏn and Zen texts at specific times and occasions” which are related to “socio-political, doctrinal and sectarian contexts”. I wish to investigate how these devices work in a European context in some of the now many Korean Sŏn centres in Europe. | 01-OCT-18 | 30-SEP-20 | 48000 | |
Emerging pedagogies for ‘Buen Vivir’- Alberto Arribas | PI | Irish Research Council (IRC) / CAROLINE Postdoctoral Fellowships | The Andean paradigm of Buen Vivir – ‘good living’ – has emerged among scholars, Latin American national and regional institutions, and civil society organizations as a key framework to reflect upon our contemporary societies, and to help us imagine and create sustainable and inclusive futures. Based on notions of reciprocity and complementarity, economies of solidarity, and harmony between human beings and nature, Buen Vivir underlines the connection between economic, political, socio-cultural, epistemic and environmental systems. In this sense, it is linked to the protection of bio-diversity and natural resources, sustainable production and consumption, local governance and democracy, and the promotion of cultural diversity and intercultural education. This project focuses on the innovative ways in which knowledge and practices of Buen Vivir are being integrated in teaching, learning and research processes. I will explore different programs being implemented in Intercultural Higher Education Institutions (IHEIs) across the Andean region. How is Buen Vivir translated into pedagogical approaches, curricula, teaching materials, assessment modalities, research methodologies, institutional organization, etc.? How are theory and practice integrated? What are the relationships between scholars and communities? What models are being put into practice, and what possibilities, challenges and limitations they face? | 01-JUN-18 | 30-SEP-21 | 193974.09 | |
