Description

Explore the complex history of religious opposition in the United States with Agents of Discord. Written by Anson Shupe and Susan E. Darnell, this book provides a detailed look at the operations and motives of groups known as the anticult movement. While the U.S. has long been a place where new religious movements grow, the organized efforts to oppose or restrict these groups are often misunderstood. This work offers a groundbreaking analysis of how these oppositional groups function. By examining the history of parallel groups that have challenged various religious movements, the authors provide context for modern organized efforts. This study is essential for readers interested in the sociology of religion and the social dynamics behind deprogramming and pseudo-science within the American landscape.
