Focusing on the interactions of Christian groups within authoritarian regimes in Greater China, the book delves into the complex negotiations these representatives undertake in a context where Christianity is viewed as a colonial import. It specifically analyzes the Catholic Church's operations in mainland China since 1945 and the Presbyterian Church in Taiwan during martial law (1949-1987). By moving beyond the simple domination-resistance framework, it highlights diverse strategies religious groups employ while navigating pressures from both the state and local culture, supported by case studies that inform a broader economic theory of religion.
