Monasteries of the Future

TL;DR — A Penn positive-psychology capstone asking what secular institutions could borrow from monasteries’ centuries of training virtue.

A Master of Applied Positive Psychology capstone from the University of Pennsylvania, 82 pages. Bukiet starts from the observation that monasteries have trained compassion, gratitude, forgiveness and grit for millennia, and asks what a modern institution built on that model would look like.

What it is: a master’s capstone project, not peer-reviewed research. It is relevant to recurring wiki questions about secular replacements for religious community. This copy is from the Wayback Machine.
