Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. New Religious Movements (NRMs) came into being as a distinct subfield of academic study in the 1970s in response to the explosion of non-traditional religions that took place in the waning years of the Sixties counterculture. (The designation 'New Religion' is a direct translation of a Japanese term coined for the many new religions that emerged in the wake of the Second World War, and was adopted by Western scholars in the late Sixties/early Seventies in preference to the pejorative term 'cult.') These movements, and those termed 'sects' and 'cults', initially attracted the attention of American and European sociologists of religion because of the controversy that arose in response to their expansion. Religious Studies, which at the time was still in the process of establishing itself as a legitimate discipline distinct from Theology and traditional Biblical Studies, was only too happy to leave NRMs to Sociology. This situation gradually changed, however, so that at present at least as many scholars of NRMs come from Religious Studies backgrounds as come from the social sciences.The collection consists of four volumes of mostly reprinted articles and book chapters on NRMs that provides a single source for basic information on -- and theoretical/methodological approaches to -- contemporary New Religions. This set of volumes includes discussions of a wide variety of themes associated with NRMs (e.g., apocalypticism, typologies, conversion, women and New Religions) and chapters on the NRMs that have attracted the most scholarly attention (e.g., the 'Moonies', The Family International, Osho Rajneesh). Contents have been selected bearing in mind certain criteria: solid scholarship, range of empirical subject matter and theoretical perspectives, and range of influential and relatively unknown articles. Some influential 'anti-cult' articles (normally not considered part of mainstream scholarship) are included as well. Sects, Cults and New Religions is fully indexed and includes a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editor, and is destined to be valued as a vital research resource. There is a huge and ever-growing interest in New Religious Movements (NRMs), sects and cults, from Aum Shinrykyo to Waco to Falun Gong. This collection provides the historical and cultural contexts within which to view current trends. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Published by Equinox (taken over by Routledge). Pictorial boards. As new. No dustjacket issued. Religion and spirituality are being transformed in our late modern and secularising times. New forms of belief proliferate, often notable for not being limited to traditional systems of reference or expression. Increasingly, these new religions present worldviews which draw directly upon popular culture - or occulture - in fiction, film, art and the internet. Fantasy and Belief explores the context and implications of these types of beliefs through the example of the Otherkin community. The Otherkin are a loosely-affiliated group who believe themselves to be in some way more than just human, their non-humanity often rooted in the characters and narratives of popular fantasy and science fiction. Challenging much current sociological thinking about spirituality and consumption, Fantasy and Belief reveals how popular occulture operates to recycle, develop, and disseminate metaphysical ideas, and how the popular and the sacred are combining in new ways in today's world.
