After the Communist victory in China's civil war, Taiwan, then
governed by the KMT (or Nationalist Party), became a focal point
for both Buddhist and Christian activity in the Chinese world.
Focusing on some of the most influential monastics of the time,
this study considers Buddhist responses to Christianity during its
subsequent period of growth on the island. Drawing on Buddhist and
Christian publications, it shows that interfaith competition, and
political context, are important in shaping religious identity and
driving the religious engagement with modernity. Buddhist Responses
to Christianity in Postwar Taiwan: Awakening the World will be of
interest to historians of Buddhism, Chinese religion and Taiwanese
society, and to those with an interest in interfaith dialogue more
generally.
