Abstract:	none The main research of this thesis started as a motivation in the Rohingya issue after the events happened in Rakhine State in 2016. Meanwhile, the violence was inside Myanmar, my question was: is it something related to ethnicity or religion? Taking some theoretical examples and definitions to answer the main question, could be a little complicated, such as it is the political Buddhism playing the role inside the citizenship law of 1982. There’s no doubt the citizenship law has the main attention into the Rohingya situation as stateless; however, it is not the complete story. Many factors can be related to this situation as the role of the international actors, such as the United Nations, ASEAN and important countries in the region who feel affected by this particular situation. Furthermore, in the past, the history has the remarks of a similar scenario in the Rwanda case: Utus and Tutsis, where the actions of the United Nations were in the wrong direction by sideways for a long time. Could be this the continue of the history and a war against a different ethnicity again? Meanwhile, the UN is not taking big actions to solve the issue, the figure of Aung San Suu Kyi is debating between the process of democratization, but it seems a bit difficult and complicated to her without any interruption and violence, and the behavior of the Burmese people against the Rohingya. All these things are just the reasons how and why the political Buddhism is taking control all over the national and international policy inside the country and it makes the work of external actors harder to find an immediate solution.
