Year: 2017
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: The academic study of Chinese religion overlaps with, and sometimes confronts, the work of rights advocates.These encounters can be uncomfortable for both parties.Scholars, diplomats, and jurists often have very different ideas of what rights are worth protecting, and what counts as religion.As recent revisions to China's religions law show, ideas about religion in China are changing quickly.
