Under Xi Jinping\u2019s rule as the paramount leader of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the government has implemented the coercive \u201csinicization of religion\u201d policy, which has fundamentally transformed China\u2019s religious environment. Sinicization, or the complete subordination of religious groups to the CCP\u2019s political agenda and Marxist vision for religion, has become the core driving principle of the government\u2019s management of religious affairs. Through regulations and state-controlled religious organizations, authorities incorporate CCP ideology into every facet of religious life for Buddhists, Catholic and Protestant Christians, Muslims, and Taoists. They also forcibly eradicate religious elements considered contradictory to the CCP\u2019s political and policy agenda with ultranationalist overtones. Government officials have installed CCP loyalists as leading religious figures, altered houses of worship with CCP-approved architecture, integrated CCP propaganda into religious doctrines, and otherwise criminalized non-CCP-backed religious activities, all with the goal to ensure the stability of CCP rule. These government measures have routinely violated the internationally protected right to freedom of religion or belief.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
