Informazioni su questo libro
Modern governments often viewed religious institutions not only as spiritual authorities, but as competing systems of loyalty capable of limiting centralized power. Across East Asia, campaigns for national modernization frequently unfolded through aggressive secularization policies aimed at bringing belief, education, and public morality under state supervision.
This book examines how twentieth-century governments restricted traditional religious life through legal reform, property confiscation, and ideological restructuring. Temples, monasteries, and community shrines lost financial independence as authorities imposed new educational standards and political oversight. Religious instruction was gradually replaced by state-centered civic identity designed to strengthen national cohesion and administrative control.
The narrative also traces the social consequences of weakening long-standing moral institutions. Urbanization, declining birth rates, and rising psychological isolation increasingly accompanied societies where traditional community structures lost influence. Public order remained formally stable, yet many governments struggled to address the erosion of informal social bonds once maintained through shared ritual and local religious participation.
By linking secularization to governance, education, and demographic change, the book presents East Asia not simply as a region of modernization, but as a laboratory for understanding what happens when states attempt to reorganize moral life itself.
