Synopsis

This book examines the contemporary relevance of the East-West ecology of thought and practice present in and inspired by the educational perspectives of American philosopher John Dewey (1859-1952) and the Japanese progenitors of soka, or "value-creating," approaches to life and education and the Soka organizations and institutions they advanced embodying and memorializing these in name and ethos: Makiguchi Tsunesaburo (1871-1944), Toda Josei (1900-1958), and Ikeda Daisaku (1928-2023).
