| Résumé: | This article presents a historical and ethnographic examination of a range of practices connected with the teachings of non-violence and animal protection. I situate Buddhist-inspired vegetarianism in everyday practice rather than referring to clichéd ideas of “identity” and argue that practices connected with ethical eating and the “protection of sentient beings” are useful as a theoretical construct. Conceptualizing vegetarianism as practice can shed light on key aspects of the religious repertoire and the materialities of care that Buddhists can draw from as needed. 本文对与非暴力和动物保护教义相关的一系列实践进行了历史和人种学考察。在分析受佛教启发的素食主义时，我将其置于日常实践中，而不是提及“身份”的陈词滥调。我认为，与“素食”和“保护众生”相关的实践作为理论建构是有用的。将素食主义概念化为实践可以阐明文化和宗教的关键方面以及佛教徒可以根据需要汲取的关怀的物质性。 |
