Abstract

This paper analyzes the overall situation of religion in the Republic of China, and mainly takes Taoism as an example to analyze and summarize the situation and adjustment of religion in the aspects of "miaochan xingxue (build schools with temple property) ", "dispelling superstition", "operating schools" and "charity enterprises". The study of traditional religion in the Republic of China is an important subject in the modern study of religion. This paper uses various historical materials to investigate the overall living environment (political environment, economic environment, humanistic environment, religious policy, temple reform) and the development of Taoism in the Republic of China, as well as the historical development circles of Taoist institutions (Taoist association, Taoist educational institution, etc.), the relationship between government dignitaries, local warlords and Taoists, and the charity of Taoism.
