New Editor for Journal of Buddhist Ethics

by Daniel Cozort
The Journal of Buddhist Ethics is pleased to announce that on January 1, 2019, Prof. Victor Forte will become the General Editor of the JBE. Daniel Cozort, who has served in that capacity for the past twelve and a half years, will continue to handle some technical tasks for awhile but will not do editing work. The rest of the JBE editorial staff and board will remain in place for the time being.

Victor Forte, M.S. Ph.D. is an Associate Professor of Religious Studies and Director of Asian Studies at Albright College in Reading, PA, U.S. He received an M.S. in Environmental Science from Drexel University (1993), and a Ph.D. in Religion from Temple University (2004). Prof. Forte teaches courses on Buddhist Studies, Asian Religions, Asian Film and Culture, and Religion and the Environment. His main research interests are in Buddhist Ethics and Comparative Philosophy; examples of his published work include, “Early Buddhist Inclusion of Intentionality in the Laws of Causation” (2006), “Reflections on the Ethical Meaning of Shinran’s True Entrusting” (2009), a co-authored translation of Ueda Shizutera’s “Seimei, Sei, and Inochi, (2014), and “Making Metta: The Poesis of Wholesome States Among Homeleavers in Pāli Buddhism” (2017). His most recent article is a response to contemporary Buddhist nationalistic activities, titled “Buddhist Nationalism and Marginalizing Rhetoric in a Dependently Originated World” (2018).

Because Prof. Forte is stepping down from being Book Review Editor, that position is now open. Please address expressions of interest to: vforte@albright.edu.
