Since the 1960s a fresh wave of new religions and what has come to
be termed 'spiritualities' have been evident on a global scale.
This volume in The Library of Essays on Sexuality and Religion
focuses on these 'new' religions and their often contentious
attitudes towards human sexuality. Part 1, through
previously-published articles, provides instances of affirming
orientations of the 'new' religions towards sexuality. This entails
scrutinising examples of innovative religion from a historical
perspective, as well as those of a more contemporary nature. Part 2
examines, with pertinent illustrations, the controversial character
of 'new' religions in their 'cultist' forms and matters of sexual
control and abuse. Part 3 considers sexuality as articulated
through paganism, the occult and esotericism in the postmodern
setting. Part 4 examines both hetero- and non-hetero- expressions
of sexuality through the so-called 'New Spiritualities',
Quasi-religions and the more 'hidden' forms of religiosity.
