Offizielle Kursbeschreibung: The module provides an introduction to and overview of the new religious movements of China since 1850. We will focus in particular on the social, political, and cultural conditions of the emergence of such movements in important phases of the history of modern China, in par-ticular the late Qing period, the Republican period, and the time from the 1990s to the present. In addition to the historical perspective, we will also focus on systematic and dynamic aspects of the development of new religious doctrines and practices under conditions of rapid social and cultural change, including and in particular globalization.
