Description

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. Ranging from the `Cult of Trump and `Cult of COVID, to the campaigns of mass media, this book recognises that contemporary `cult rhetoric has become hybridised and suggests a more nuanced study of contemporary religion. Topics include online religions, political `cults, `apostate testimony and the current `othered position of the study of minority religions.
