Information was gathered by participant observation and interviews primarily, and the analysis of documents secondarily. The topics covered are: the growing interest in the study of religion, the methods used by Christians to be able to coexist with a communist government, revival techniques being used by Buddhist monks, the strategies of Daoist priests and sect leaders to attract followers, the significance of mass-circulating morality books, and the ongoing debate about the significance and nature of Confucianism. The book will interest social scientists, religious specialists, journalists, and others who want to understand the changing nature of Chinese societies, and those interested in religious change in modernizing societies. 410 0$aReligion and the social order ;$vv. 11. 606 $aReligion and politics$zChina 607 $aChina$xReligion 615 0$aReligion and politics 676 $a200/.951 701 $aYang$b Fenggang$0866663 701 $aTamney$b Joseph B$01713356 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813145403321 996 $aState, market, and religions in Chinese societies$94191210 997 $aUNINA
