讲座 | 冷战柬埔寨与佛教的时间观及历史观

在徒中，关于这个时代的终结以及下一个启示的新时代将会到来的预言已经传播了近两千年。在柬埔寨，这些“千禧年预言”也被看作是对其20世纪50、60年代的冷战状态的有力而普遍的回应，。、散文、。这次讲座将会向我们讲述这些著名的预言是如何以另外一种与美国和苏联不同的方式理解冷战的时间和历史概念，并为我们展现那些经历了一系列暴力的“热战争”和“冷战”时期令人恐惧的社会动荡的东南亚普通人的体验。

Buddhist prophesies about the end of our time and the dawning of a new era tied to the enlightenment of the next Buddha have circulated widely across the Buddhist world for nearly two millennia. In Cambodia, these millenarian prophesies have also served as a powerful and pervasive response to Cold War dynamics in the 1950s and late 1960s, and later as an explanation for the genocidal Khmer Rouge regime from 1975-79. This talk draws on my current research investigating Buddhist prophesies that have inspired millenarian poetry, prose and political and religious movements in Cambodia from the colonial era to the post-Socialism of the 1990s. The talk will raise questions about how these well-known Buddhist prophesies serve as an alternative way of understanding Cold War conceptions of time and history (in contrast to US and Soviet ideas) and offer insight into the experience of ordinary people in Southeast Asia — who lived through a series of violent “hot wars” and frightening social turmoil — during the period known as the “Cold War.”
