종교중국화 정책에 따른 이슬람 종교교육의 방향과 전망

Abstract

Following the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, The Chinese government adhered to the principle of separation between religion and education, and created laws to provide religious education only in religious schools approved by the government. And religious schools were managed by the government-approved Islamic Association. As a result, there are two types of Islamic clergy training schools in China. One is a traditional educational institution called jingtang(经堂), which is run out of a mosque, and the the other is a modern educational institution and is a Islamic academy. There are currently ten jingxueyuan schools in China, and the number of jingtang practitioners is impossible to count. It is thought to be comparable because China has over 30,000 mosque. The issue is that while both are educational institutes dedicated to teaching Islamic religious traders, their educational goals and techniques differ, resulting in Ahong with diverse cultural and religious backgrounds. Therefore, in this paper, by observing the training system, educational content and characteristics of jingtang and jingxueyuan education, which are the priest training institutions of Chinese Islam, and examining the related editions revised by the religious Chineseization policy, in the future, Consider how Islamic religious education in China will change.
