520 |a “Transitional justice” indicates legal and administrative provisions a newly established democratic country adopts to rectify the injustices of the past non-democratic regime, and punish those responsible for them. Taiwan was an authoritarian regime under the Martial Law until 1987, and did not really guarantee freedom of religion or belief, as evidenced by the repression of the New Testament Church and Yiguandao. After 1987, a post-authoritarian regime followed, which proclaimed religious liberty but still persecuted religious movements perceived as hostile to the ruling party. In 996, a crackdown hit several of the largest religious movements active in Taiwan, including Fo Guang Shan, Chung Tai Shan, Tai Ji Men, the Taiwan Zen Buddhist Association, the Sung Chi-Li Miracle Association, and later Guanyin Famen. Its aftermath particularly affected Tai Ji Men, which continued to be falsely accused of tax evasion, and whose tax case was derived from the criminal case and is still unresolved today. The article reviews attempts by various democratic governments to implement transitional justice in Taiwan, and concludes that more should be done to complete the democratic process in the island.
