Notes

↩ [1] 闽南 (Mǐnnán): Refers to the southern region of Fujian province, historically a major point of contact for Western missionaries and overseas trade, leading to a unique development of localized Christian institutions that sought autonomy from foreign missionary boards.

↩ [2] 学科建设 (xuékē jiànshè): A common term in Chinese academia referring to the systematic institutionalization of a field of study, including the development of curriculum, faculty, research funding, and degree programs within the state-mandated academic catalog.

↩ [3] 邪教 (xiéjiào): Often translated as "evil cults" or "heterodox teachings." In Chinese political and legal discourse, this refers to organizations that claim religious status but are deemed to disturb social order, harm citizens, or oppose the state. The term has historical roots in Imperial China used to denote underground sects that threatened dynastic stability.
