| 總結: | On three occasions Buddhism had to face and overcome major persecutions in the history of China, and there were various ways by which it created a discourse adapting to cultural and political circumstances in support of its doctrine. In the early twentieth century Chinese Buddhism emphasized a modernizing discourse, in order to later adapt its religious concepts to communist ideology.

This paper aims to analyze the religious-political narrative through the use of concepts and ideas circulating in the media and public talks that the Buddhist Association of China promotes among believers.
