Abstract
"China's underground Christians are the target of what they themselves describe as the most brutal repression since the early 1980s when China was just emerging from the terror of the Cultural Revolution. Mindful of the democratisation role played by the various Christian churches within the Soviet Empire, in 1994 Beijing decreed that all Christian worship must occur within government sanctioned associations. Since then, and with increasing intensity, China has set out on an aggressive course to eradicate underground Christian churches within its borders."
