  • Researching New Religious Movements
    Researching New Religious Movements ‘The most important “first” that this book achieves is its bold questioning of the whole intellectual apparatus of the sociology of religion as it has been applied to the understanding of the new religious movements. I am confident that Elisabeth Arweck’s study will quickly become required reading in the sociology of new religious movements.’ Professor David Martin, Emeritus Professor of Sociology, London School of Economics, University of London ‘Powerful and original . it succeeds triumphantly in being at the same time an important, high-quality academic study and a book for our times.’ Professor David Marsland, Professorial Research Fellow in Sociology, University of Buckingham New religious movements such as Scientology, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Unification Church (Moonies) are now well established in mainstream cul- tural consciousness. However, responses to these ‘cult’ groups still tend to be overwhelmingly negative, characterized by the furious reactions that they evoke from majority interests. Modern societies need to learn how to respond to such movements and how to interpret their benefits and dangers. Researching New Religious Movements provides a fresh look at the history and development of ‘anti-cult’ groups and the response of main- stream churches to these new movements. In this unique reception study, Elisabeth Arweck traces the path of scholarship of new religious move- ments, exploring the development of research in this growing field. She con- siders academic and media interventions on both sides, with special emphasis on the problems of objectivity inherent in terminologies of ‘sects’, ‘cults’, and ‘brainwashing’. Ideal for students and researchers, this much- needed book takes the debate over new religious movements to a more sophisticated level.

  • CULTS and PUBLIC POLICY PROTECTING the VICTIMS of CULTIC ABUSE in AUSTRALIA Stephen Mutch
    CULTS AND PUBLIC POLICY PROTECTING THE VICTIMS OF CULTIC ABUSE IN AUSTRALIA Stephen Mutch Occasional Paper No.1 June 2018 Rationalism holds that knowledge comes from dissecting and evaluating ideas, and testing them to give meaning to our lives, to develop insight and knowledge in matters of opinion, belief, or conduct. It is a system of philosophy and ethics that provides a framework for understanding existence and morality based on human faculties rather than faith, such as religious or supernatural beliefs. It has also been called freethought. It thus has some similarities to Humanism. Rationalists thus believe in the freedom thought for every person, and freedom to act according to their beliefs, so long as they do not impose them on others. The activities of the Association include public talks and debates, the annual Joseph McCabe lecture, and activism working towards Australia becoming a republic with a constitutional separation of church and state. We also produce a biannual publication, The New Liberator.
