After a period of condemnation under Mao Zedong, Confucianism has been restored to an "unofficial" state doctrine, with Confucian texts once again studied in state schools and Confucian moral themes often tinging state policies. Worldwide, the Chinese government supports "Confucius Institutes" to spread Chinese language and culture.
Taoism is a recognized national religion (along with Buddhism, Islam, and Protestant and Catholic Christianity). Official recognition has been granted to Taoist universities and seminaries, and there has been much state support for the restoration of Taoist temples and traditional practices since the end of the Cultural Revolution, though religious Taoism tends to be in healthier state in Taiwan than on the mainland, where it has little overt influence in the popular culture.
