Now available in paperback, The Bloomsbury Companion to New
Religious Movements surveys key themes such as charismatic
leadership, conversion and brainwashing, prophecy and
millennialism, violence and suicide, gender and sexuality, legal
issues, and the portrayal of New Religious Movements by the media
and anti-cult organizations. Several categories of new religions
receive special attention, including African new religions,
Japanese new religions, Mormons, and UFO religions. This guide to
New Religious Movements and their study brings together 29
world-class international scholars, and serves as a resource to
students and researchers. The volume highlights the current state
of academic study in the field, and explores areas in which future
research might develop. Clearly and accessibly organised to help
users quickly locate key information and analysis, the book
includes an A to Z of key terms, extensive guides to further
resources, a comprehensive bibliography, and a timeline of major
developments in the field such as the emergence of new groups,
publications, legal decisions, and historical events.
