Karma and Punishment
Prison Chaplaincy in Japan
A groundbreaking study of prison religion, Karma and Punishment introduces a form of chaplaincy rooted in the Buddhist concept of doctrinal admonition. Through research and fieldwork, Adam Lyons uncovers a dimension of Buddhist modernism that developed as Japan’s religious organizations carved out a niche as defenders of society by fighting crime.
