Conhecendo apenas os rudimentos da história ocidental, focalizarei o que considero a ideologia dos acontecimentos na China, deixando de lado os fatores econômicos e tecnológicos que desconheço.

Because it revealed a dense organization at every level, this space-based approach led me as well to call into question the classic distinction between “diffused” and “organized” religion. Subsequent work, both historical and in the field, gradually enabled me to see this as a long evolutionary history which begins with elite attacks on spirit-medium religion in the Warring States and culminates with the emergence of popular religion in the Song.
