在上世紀70年代以後，兩岸關係有所緩解，民間來往逐漸熱絡，其中可以體現在文化與宗教交流層面上。由於在臺分香廟期盼與中國大陸祖廟建立宗教交流的網絡，「宗教尋根」成為了一種普遍的社會現象。本研究的研究對象後溪霞城城隍廟位於中國大陸福建省廈門市集美區後溪鎮，臺北霞海城隍廟是霞城城隍的分香廟。霞海城隍廟源於「飲水思源」的的道德感，一直以來都在尋找祖廟的所在地。在1991年的時候，霞海城隍廟得到臺商的幫助順利地找到了祖廟，重建了廟宇、再造了信俗。後溪霞城城隍廟的廟宇重建與信俗再造，道德經濟的運作貫穿始終。同時臺商雖不是尋根的主體，但也參與其中，為的是融入當地關係，方便商業活動的展開。對於後溪村民來說，廟宇重建、信俗再造使得村民間關係緊密，他們對此感到高興。勵精圖治的地方官員，則是希望廟宇重建、信俗再造能帶來更高層次的影響，如對臺文化交流、地方經濟發展。因而，地方各階層通過各自的方式，影響道德經濟的運作，在後溪霞城城隍廟的廟宇重建和信俗再造中，達成了各自目的。

After the 1970s, cross-Strait relations have eased, and people-to-people exchanges have gradually become more intense, which can be reflected in cultural and religious exchanges. Because branch temples in Taiwan hope to establish a network of religious exchanges with ancestral temples in mainland of China, "religious root seeking"(zongjiao xungen) has become a common social phenomenon. This study takes the Houxi Xiacheng Chenghuang Temple as the research object. It is located in Houxi Town, Jimei District, Xiamen City, Fujian Province, mainland of China. The Taipei Xiahai Chenghuang Temple is the branch temple of the Houxi Xiacheng Chenghuang temple. The Xiahai Chenghuang Temple originated from the moral sense of “gratitude for the source of benefit”(yinshui siyuan), and has always been looking for the location of the ancestral temple. In 1991, with the help of Taiwanese businessmen, The Xiahai Chenghuang Temple successfully found the ancestral temple, rebuilt the temple and recreated beliefs and customs. Moral economy has always played an important role in the reconstruction of the Houxi Xiacheng Chenghuang Temple. At the same time, in order to integrate into local relations and facilitate commercial activities, Taiwanese businessmen actively participate in the process of temple reconstruction and cultural reconstruction. For the villagers of Houxi, the reconstruction of temples and the reconstruction of customs have led to a close relationship between them, and they are happy about this. Local officials who strive for governance hope that the reconstruction of temples and the reconstruction of customs can bring about a higher level of impact, such as cultural exchange with Taiwan and local economic development. Therefore, local social classes influence the operation of moral economy through their own means. Finally, they achieved their respective goals in the temple reconstruction and faith and custom reconstruction of Houxi Xiacheng Chenghuang Temple.
