Religious Transformation in Modern Asia

This volume explores the religious transformation of each nation in modern Asia. When the Asian people, who were not only diverse in culture and history, but also active in performing local traditions and religions, experienced a socio-political change under the wave of Western colonialism, the religious climate was also altered from a transnational perspective. This book also introduces the individual phenomenon through which the new religion (Christianity) was settled down in the new culture of Asian nations.
