This book examines traditions in post-Mao southern Fujian, surveying various aspects of everyday culture including lineages, religion, and the status of women. Though the State remains officially opposed to superstitious traditions, these articles illustrate how post-liberalization economic and political transformations have done much to contribute to their revitalization. This volume also examines the politics of traditions and their relevance to local identities, stressing the dynamic nature of traditions as they are reproduced through different cultural agents.
