Descripción
Sumario:This slim volume consists of eight edited papers on prophecy in new religious movements (NRMs) that originally were presented at several sessions of the 2006 RRA/SSSR annual meeting, as well as an introduction and afterword by the volume's editors, Dianna Tumminia and William Swatos. Published together, these papers constitute Volume 21 of the Association for the Sociology of Religion's series on Religion and the Social Order., Oftentimes anthologies of articles united by a designated general theme prove to be less than the sum of their parts, suffering from discontinuities in both the content and quality of the separate pieces. Such is not the case with How Prophecy Lives. All of the articles in this volume take as their departure point Leon Festinger et al.
