"How does Christianity continue to experience growth in an increasingly authoritarian
political system that enforces strict regulations on religion? How are ordinary Christians
affected by social and political changes in the country, and how do they make their
influence felt in wider society? Taking Chinese Christians' experience as a case study,
Lim and Sng examine the possibilities and limitations of Christian engagement in society
under an authoritarian regime. They look especially at efforts by religious individuals
and groups who are seeking to address social issues by engaging in unobtrusive and
non-antagonistic activities that interact with controlling state institutions. Their
emphasis is on everyday lived religion, analysing how Christians express their faith
in their everyday activity and not only in spaces demarcated as within the religious
domain. A valuable reference for scholars and students looking to understand religion
in relation to politics, culture and everyday life in rapidly modernising East Asian
societies, and particularly in China"
