Religion and the Social Order
ISBN: 9780762300389 / Angielski / Twarda / 1996 / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The study of the basis of "authenticity" of any religious tradition is one which has been seemingly neglected by secular, western scholars. Those beliefs and practices deemed "sacred" are assumed to have authenticity, at least by the adherents of the tradition. Also, to many who are not adherents of the tradition, some of the beliefs and practices may appear irrational, foolish or even wicked. This volume addresses this issue, examining the "criteria in use" by both secular and religious groups for deciding on the authenticity of religious beliefs, experiences and practices. Part I of this...

Cults, Religion, and Violence
ISBN: 9780521668989 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 270 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Contrary to conventional wisdom, violent episodes involving cults are rare historically. But their potential to affect and disrupt civic life looms large and efforts to manage these incidents involve controversial issues of religious freedom, politics, state intervention, and public security. The interpretive challenge of this book is to provide a social scientific explanation for these rare events. The authors conclude that they usually involve some combination of internal and external dynamics through which a new religious movement and society become polarized.

The Satanism Scare
ISBN: 9780202303789 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Neureligionen und ihre Kulte
ISBN: 9783458710318 / Niemiecki / Twarda / 2010 / 321 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Neue Religionen, häufig auch als Jugendsekten oder Psychogruppen stigmatisiert, genießen kein hohes Ansehen in der Öffentlichkeit. Es assoziieren sich mit ihnen Vorstellungen wie Gehirnwäsche, finanzielle Bereicherung einer kleinen Funktionärselite oder in Einzelfällen sogar die Gefährdung der rechtsstaatlichen Ordnung. Eine solche Außensicht stellt den Anspruch der betroffenen Gruppierungen, religiöser Natur zu sein, grundsätzlich in Abrede.§Auch die Religionswissenschaftler Douglas E. Cowan und David G. Bromley nähern sich neuen Religionen aus einer Außenperspektive, ziehen...
