摘要 Abstract
本文主旨是對台灣宗教的社會學研究做一全面性的回顧和檢討。作者首先簡要地介紹台灣的宗教研究發展之歷史概況，包括日治時代的研究概況。其次，本文指出台灣宗教社會學研究，從1980年代才開始急速地展開，並且試圖歸納出這十幾年來所累積的研究成果。最後，提出本土宗教社會學的研究，大體上，存在兩個明顯的缺失：一是過度依賴西方理論而模糊了研究觀察的焦點，二是缺乏對本土歷史的關照。

This paper has an overall review on the sociological studies of religions in Taiwan. First of all, this paper briefly introduces the general history of religious studies of Taiwan. Next, this paper shows that the study of religion did not call for the attention of Taiwanese sociologists until the 1980s. Then, some research findings from the past sociological studies of religions in Taiwan are summarized in this paper. Finally, two common problems in these studies are addressed: overwhelmingly depending on Western theories in constructing research hypotheses to study the various religious phenomena of Taiwan, and lack of interest in understanding Taiwan's past history.
