  • The Floating Community of Muslims in the Island City of Guangzhou
    Island Studies Journal, 12(2), 2017, pp. 83-96 The floating community of Muslims in the island city of Guangzhou Ping Su Sun Yat-sen University, Zhuhai, China [email protected] ABSTRACT: The paper explores how Guangzhou’s urban density and hub functions have conditioned its cultural dynamics by looking specifically at the city’s Muslim community. Guangzhou’s island spatiality has influenced the development of the city’s Muslim community both historically and in the contemporary era. As a historic island port city, Guangzhou has a long-standing tradition of commerce and foreign trade, which brought to the city the first group of Muslims in China. During the Tang and Song dynasties, a large Muslim community lived in the fanfang of Guangzhou, a residential unit designated by the government for foreigners. Later, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, Hui Muslims from northern China, who were mostly soldiers, joined foreign Muslims in Guangzhou to form an extended community. However, during the Cultural Revolution, Guangzhou’s Muslim community and Islamic culture underwent severe damage. It was not until China’s period of reform and opening-up that the Muslim community in Guangzhou started to revive, thanks to the city’s rapid economic development, especially in foreign trade. This is today a floating community, lacking geographical, racial, ethnic, and national boundaries. This paper argues that Guangzhou’s island spatiality as a major port at the mouth of the Pearl River has given rise to a floating Muslim community. Keywords: floating community, Guangzhou, island cities, Muslims, trading port, spatiality https://doi.org/10.24043/isj.18 © 2017 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada.

    Archbishop Claudio Celli Introduzione al Seminario (Webinar) sollevata. La Santa Sede veniva letteralmente sommersa da messaggi di Vescovi e sacerdoti redatti in un semplice e corretto latino. Si trattava di informazioni sulla vita e le varie problematiche affrontate anche con sofferenza dalle Diocesi e sulle consacrazioni episcopali che avevano luogo in quegli anni. Si trattava di informazioni preziose perché denotavano la vitalità di quelle comunità cattoliche, nonostante l'esperienza di molti anni di difficoltà e di tensioni. 3. Emergeva a tutto tondo, nella Chiesa in Cina, l'esistenza di due comunità: una "clandestina", 1.

    News Update on Religion and Church in China March 16 – July 6, 2021 Compiled by Katharina Feith, Isabel Friemann (China InfoStelle), Katharina Wenzel-Teuber and Jan Kwee, with a contribution by Willi Boehi Translated by David Streit SVD The “News Update on Religion and Church in China” appears regularly in each issue ofReligions & Chris- tianity in Today’s China (RCTC). Since the editorial staff learns of some items only later, it can happen that there are chronological overlaps between “News Updates” of two consecutive issues of RCTC. In these cases stories referred to in earlier “News Updates” will not be repeated. All “News Updates” can be found online at the website of the China-Zentrum (www.china-zentrum.de). – The last “News Update” RCTC( 2021, No. 2, pp. 3-19) covered the period November 27, 2020 – March 11, 2021. Politics March 22, 2021: Following EU sanctions, China is imposing counter-sanctions on European politicians and scholars. More than 1,300 scholars sign solidarity statements On March 22, European Union sanctions against four Chinese politicians working in Xinjiang and the Xinjiang Public Security Bureau for mass detentions in the region became final. For its part, China im- mediately imposed punitive measures against ten European individuals and four European organiza- tions. Affected are five MEPs, including Reinhard Bütikofer (Greens), the head of the China delegation of the European Parliament, three other European politicians and the scholars Björn Jerdén and Adrian Zenz. The latter has been researching the re-education camps in Xinjiang. None of them, including their family members, will be allowed to enter mainland China, Hong Kong or Macau in the future.

  • Statistics on Religions and Churches in the People's Republic of China
    Statistics on Religions and Churches in the People’s Republic of China – Update for the Year 2017 Katharina Wenzel-Teuber With a contribution1 by Isabel Hess-Friemann The annual compilation of figures and dates concerning the life of the religions in the Peo- ple’s Republic of China begins this time with surveys made by Chinese academics on the phenomenon of “cyber religion.” They attempt a review of this comparatively young form of dissemination of religion and analyze the interest of the general public in this topic on the Internet. The question of popular beliefs continues to occupy Chinese researchers; we bring an example from the Province of Guangdong. In addition we present the official educational institutes of the Protestant Church and figures for the growth of Protestant Christianity among ethnic minorities in the People’s Republic. In the Catholic Church of China the numbers of baptisms were compiled for the entire year for the first time. There was an unusually high number of priestly ordinations in 2017 but not a single bishop was consecrated, although nine bishops died during the year and many dioceses are vacant. The statistical update on China’s religions is supplemented by data from older surveys, official information and estimations. Depending on the source, the details often vary widely. Unless otherwise stated, the figures refer to Mainland China. 1. Religions on the Internet For the religions in China which otherwise have very limited access to the general Chi- nese public, the Internet and later the social media, due to their broad prevalence among the Chinese population, have opened up new possibilities for internal networking and reaching the secular society.

It also insists on the inseparability of the non-Han nationalities as an integrated part of Zhonghua minzu. This dissertation traces the origin of this nationalism to the two major waves of scientific investigation in the fields of paleoanthropology and anthropology in the Chinese frontier during the first half of the twentieth century. Prevailing theories and discoveries in the two scientific disciplines inspired the ways in which the Chinese intellectuals constructed their national identity. The first wave concerns the international quest for human ancestors in North China and the northwestern frontier in the 1920s and 1930s.
