Rezensionen

"This book adopts the economic approach to religion to study the development of Christianity in China from the perspective of the relationship between Church and state. ... This book is a catalyst for advancing the study of Christianity in China and will be much appreciated by both specialists and students of Chinese Christianity." (Wei Xiong, Religious Studies Review, Vol. 49 (1), March, 2023)
"Uneasy Encounters, the author's first book, is a laudable effort at marshalling an extensive review of church publications and scholarly literature ... . Rychetská is to be commended for bridging scholarly conversations that have not always been in dialogue with each other. In particular, Rychetská's review ofpublished church documents and government policy documents relating to the church will interest scholars and teachers seeking to illustrate particular aspects of church-state relations in either context." (Joshua Tan, Review of Religion and Chinese Society, February 20, 2023)
