These measures can be regarded as the means to achieve the official priorities of recovering the Mainland China. With this historical background in consideration, this research aims to observe the process and result of the orientation of the Taiwanese Catholic Church toward sinicization. Besides, it tries to demonstrate, through liturgies of the time, the impacts of the Nationalist government and the ideology of the prelates on the inculturation (indigenization) of the Taiwanese Church in the post–Vatican II era.engWith permission of the license/copyright holderChiang, Kai-shek, 1887-1975Catholic Church -- TaiwanNationalism -- Religious aspects -- ChristianityCatholics -- IdentityIndigenization of worshipTaiwan -- Church historyChina -- NationalismChinaReligious ethicsIntercultural and contextual theologiesAsian theologiesChristian denominationsRoman CatholicGlobal Church History and World ChristianityArticle
