Identities, organizations and societies. 330 $aThe revival of religious belief and practice in China over the past thirty years, after decades of severe repression, has attracted much attention by scholars. Social scientific studies of religion by mainland Chinese scholars has also increased in recent years, using theories and methods developed mainly outside China. Increasingly, mainland scholars are also debating whether theories and concepts developed in western societies are fully appropriate for the study of religion in Chinese societies. This volume presents a selection of papers by sociologists, anthropologists, and historians of religion on these themes. The chapters include rich field studies of particular religions and religious activities, along with theoretical and historical reflections by scholars inside and outside China on problems and opportunities in the revival of the social scientific study of religion in Chinese societies. 410 0$aReligion in Chinese societies ;$vv. 1. 606 $aReligion and sociology$zChina$vCongresses 607 $aChina$xReligion$vCongresses 615 0$aReligion and sociology 676 $a200.71/051 701 $aYang$b Fenggang$0866663 701 $aLang$b Graeme$01563358 712 02$aBeijing Summit on Chinese Spirituality and Society$f(2008 :$ePeking University) 712 12$aBeijing Summit on Chinese Spirituality and Society$f(8-10 Oct. 2008 :$ePeking University) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789551903321 996 $aSocial scientific studies of religion in China$93831718 997 $aUNINA
