Description

Explore the deep connection between faith and modern society in Macau with this academic study from the Routledge Religion in Contemporary Asia Series. This book provides a detailed look at the daily lives of Catholics in a region experiencing massive transformation. Based on extensive original research and in-depth interviews, the text examines how religious identity functions amidst significant societal shifts. You will read about the impact of the sovereignty handover, the rapid growth of the casino and tourism industries, and the evolution of Macau from a quiet colony into a vibrant, developing city. While formal structures remain, this research looks at how meanings of religiosity, morality, and civility change in a modern context.
