The Bloomsbury Companion to New Religious Movements covers 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 organisations. 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 critical
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.
