Flourishing Feasts is the first book to explore the socioreligious history of the Zhaijiao, “vegetarian sects,” that originated in China during the Ming and Qing dynasties and are still active in Taiwan today. Through historical analysis and ethnographic fieldwork, Broy shows their engagement in political, economic, legal, and cultural affairs.
