The changing geography of Christianity in China, 1918-2004
Using systematic provincial level data on the number of Protestant Christians in 1918, 1949, 1997 and 2004, and those on Christian religious venues in 1979, 1997 and 2004, this article analyses changes in the coastal dominance, urban primacy and spatial diffusion of Christian communities in China. Six decades of communist rule eroded the missionary legacy, as Christian communities spread to China’s interior provinces and the rural hinterland, and…
The devil is in the local: Provincial religious legislation in China, 2005–2012
Promulgated in the wake of the Regulations on Religious Affairs, the new set of 20 provincial regulations in China often adopt provisions in the central government statute, prescribing a more benign relationship between religion and the state, defining religious affairs narrowly to exclude internal administration issues of religious communities, stipulating protection of religious freedom before that of state authority, adopting a regulatory rath…
Banding after the Ban: The underground Falungong in China, 1999–2011
A decade after the Falungong was outlawed in China, public forms of its organized activities have virtually disappeared and its overt acts of defiance have precipitously declined from 2000 to 2011. However, some determined practitioners continue to engage in stubborn protest activities in public, while others meet covertly in small groups or in larger conferences to share experiences of cultivation. Falungong practitioners have also adhered to th…

Taking effect in March 2005, the Regulations on Religious Affairs is an overdue delivery of a more benign policy towards religion in China. Comprehensive in scope, it was promulgated only after numerous drafts and six years of extensive consultation with the religious, academic, legal and human rights communities, followed by a nationwide effort to propagate the new policy at the national and local levels. The Regulations prescribes a new framewo…
The New Religious Policy in China: Catching up with Systemic Reforms
China's new religious policy expands the institutional autonomy of religious organizations, limits the power of religious affairs bureaus, and provides for administrative appeal, judicial challenge, and sanctioning errant officials. As such, it is an effort of the Chinese government to integrate religious policy with its systemic socioeconomic and political reforms

Publish to Perish: Regime choices and propaganda impact in the Anti-Falungong Publications Campaign, July 1999–April 2000
This article analyses the operational choices and policy impact of the Anti-Falungong Publications Campaign in 1999–2000, in particular, the campaign strategy, publisher selection, propaganda themes, and public receptivity. It finds that the state-controlled publications industry still possesses formidable institutional capacity, producing three series of 120 titles in nine months, in a vintage year of major anniversaries and special events all r…
