About
In spite of difficulties posed by a hostile socialist government, the Catholic Church in China has shown remarkable perseverance and growth since the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1979. The essays contained in this book inform readers of the major issues facing the Catholic Church in China today. Their insights should be welcomed by everyone from the Catholic lay person contemplating a trip to China, to scholars and specialists in China and religious studies. Part I explores the history of tensions between Church and state. Part II presents the conflicting loyalties between Catholic believers associated with the Catholic Patriotic Association and those attending Churches that are not officially recognized. Part III focuses on the future, exploring vital questions. What can be learned from the past? What will be the future of the Catholic Church in a changing China?
