520 |a This paper explores how specific Mahāyāna ethics, namely the interpretation of the Lotus Sūtra by Zhiyi (536-597), Nichiren (1222-1282) and Sōka Gakkai (1930-), can relate to core principles of international humanitarian law (IHL). In particular, it also assesses and discusses how Sōka Gakkai’s three key doctrines (the dignity of life, the variability of life and the interconnectedness of life) are congruent with some IHL principles. The paper then analyses how Buddhist organisations today can be advocates of IHL and specifically looks at how Sōka Gakkai agrees with - and commits to - IHL in terms of the humanitarian impact of the use of nuclear weapons.
