Having long been stigmatized as an immoral and even illegal superstition , the popular practice of divination is experiencing a revival in contemporary China. Fate Calculation Experts explores how diviners attempt to achieve legitimation in a society which identifies strongly with modernity, science, and rationality. As well as associating with modern knowledge production systems, diviners build a positive social image for their occupation via claims to moral authority and appeals to tradition . Beyond matters of image management, diviners efforts towards legitimation also figure in the social relationships and fundamental cultural values they develop in their practice.
