English | ISBN: 1350333212 | 2024 | 264 pages | EPUB, PDF | 829 KB + 13 MB
Examining contemporary understandings of the term 'cult', this book brings together scholars from multiple disciplines, including sociology, anthropology and religious studies. Focusing on how 'cult rhetoric' affects our perceptions of new religious movements, the contributors explore how these minority groups have developed and deconstruct the language we use to describe them.

Topics include online religions, political 'cults', 'apostate' testimony and the current 'othered' position of the study of minority religions.
