China is in the midst of one of the world’s great spiritual awakenings: some 300 million Chinese currently practice a faith, while tens of millions more follow personal gurus, populist masters and New Age sages. This astonishing revival began in 1982 when the Communist Party pledged to allow what it thought would be a small-scale practice of religion under government supervision. But the faithful have expanded far beyond the Party’s expectations: Today, China’s cities and villages are filled with new temples, churches, and mosques as well as cults, sects and politicians trying to harness religion for their own ends. Fueling this resurgence is a popular desire to rediscover a moral compass in a society driven by naked capitalism.
For six years, Pulitzer Prize–winning writer Ian Johnson lived for extended periods with three religious communities: the underground Early Rain Protestant congregation in Chengdu, the Ni family’s Buddhist pilgrimage association in Beijing, and yinyang Daoist priests in rural Shanxi. Johnson distills these experiences into a cycle of festivals, births, deaths, detentions, and struggle that reveals the hearts and minds of the Chinese people—a great awakening of faith that is shaping the soul of the world’s newest superpower.

评分断了的传统能接续吗?在经济发展以后,精神生活的空虚需要填补,随之而来的传统文(zong )化(jiao )的复苏,外来精(zong )神(jiao)寄托的迅速发展,而这些发展中官方限制外来的发展,扶持本土儒释道的发展。虽然我觉得作者有点观点有待商榷,但是能有本描绘当下中国人精神世界的书籍也是不错的。
评分##深度報導上乘之作,字裏行間敏銳與同情兼具。國家忽而出手忽而利用,宗教作為無法根除的人性天然渴望和推動公民社會的思想與組織資源,在陰晴不定的時局下展現出堪比Great Awakening的復興。多處細節令人嘆惋,尤其心知過兩年就寫不出這樣的文字了。遺憾在於著眼點和一手材料:穆斯林、天主教徒缺席,對制度化宗教近乎全然規避,從頭到尾一群散兵游勇——或許是不得已的微觀史。
