Description

Explore the history and sociological impact of a major religious movement with Spiritualism and Society. Originally published in 1969, this Routledge Revival edition provides a deep look into how Spiritualism emerged and evolved. The text tracks the origins of the movement in America and follows its growth into an organized structure. Readers will follow the expansion of Spiritualism into Britain through a detailed study of contemporary journals, various publications, and interviews. Beyond simple history, the book applies sociological theory to the movement. It examines the definition of a cult versus a church and looks at how authority and leadership function within these groups. This work is an essential resource for those interested in anthropology, sociology, and the history of religious movements. It offers a clear perspective on how spiritual beliefs interact with societal structures and organizational development.
