David A. Palmer, Glenn Shive, and Philip L. Wickeri offer an introduction to religion in contemporary China. The essays in this volume consider religion in urban, rural, and ethnic minority settings; the religious dimensions of body, gender, environment, and civil society; and the historical, sociological, economic, and political aspects of religion in contemporary Chinese society.
Written by a team of internationally renowned scholars, this volume provides an in-depth introduction to religion in contemporary China. Instead of adopting the traditional focus on pre-modern religious history and doctrinal traditions, Chinese Religious Life examines the social dimensions of religious life, with essays devoted to religion in urban, rural, and ethnic minority settings; to the religious dimensions of body, gender, environment, and civil society; and to the historical, sociological, economic, and political aspects of religion in contemporary Chinese society.
