Abstract:
This is a report on the latest developments in the "cult wars" in France. The anticult panic caused by the Solar Temple group suicides and murders has, after thirteen years, died down, and a more moderate government has replaced the Socialist Party. The old government-sponsored Ministry to Fight Sects (MILS) has been replaced by MIVILUDES (Mission interministrielle de vigilance et de lutte contre les drives sectaires), which adopts a more circumspect approach towards the secte problem. On the basis of my findings from field research conducted in the spring of 2006, I argue that the social control efforts that targeted NRMs in the 1990s have not abated, but merely shifted tactics. Interviews with distinguished French academics clearly illustrate that their expertise in the relevant fields of sociology and history of religions is deliberately ignored by officials, and they are even punished for voicing their scholarly opinions regarding public policies towards les sectes. The new, covert threat to religious freedom posed by the About-Picard Law (2001), which was designed to target secte leaders who brainwash, is analyzed after investigating its first application to a tiny group called Nééo-Phare.

Abstract:
AbstractGhanaian culture revolves around religion hence it is not surprising that Ghanaians have established sects upon resettlement in the United States of America. However, the sects have changed the social organization of the adherents. Instead of mainstream institutions, adherents depend on the spiritual leaders of their sect in dealing with immigration, unemployment, illness and other social problems. The study contends that there are relevant characteristics of some Ghanaians that make it likely that they would be drawn to the sects. Some adherents are drawn to the sects as a result of profound post-migration insecurities including the threat of deportation and limited entitlements such as the denial of employment and educational rights. To such adherents the sects are an important avenue for resolving their post-migration insecurities. Results of this research also suggest that some Ghanaians are drawn to the sects by religious aspirations including the unique theology of the sect. Overall, the sects are not just a transfer of an important segment of indigenous life in Ghana to the United States of America, they also represent a miniature portrait of the changing nature of religion in the United States.

Abstract:
Heretical sects are teachings or activities that deviate from religious norms. Misguided sects that are currently happening a lot both in Indonesia and in the world are sects that violate human rights. Apart from deviating from our spirituality and beliefs in religion, this sect also makes its followers victims of criminal acts by the sect leaders themselves. In collecting data the author uses normative juridical methods. The normative juridical method is library law research by examining library materials or with primary legal materials and secondary legal materials that support the author's research. The results of this study indicate that the modus operandi in committing a crime can be done in the name of religion. where this concerns the problem of our spirituality to God Almighty. This study concludes that deviant sects are also regulated in the Criminal Code where the sanctions for the perpetrators are in accordance with the conditions of the crime they committed. In the perspective of Islamic criminal law, the spread of deviant sects can be as Jarimah Hudud. In Criminal Law, efforts to overcome heretical sects are inseparable from the concept of crime prevention and in the Islamic view by strengthening faith and strengthening monotheism to Allah SWT Keywords : Heretical sects, Modus operandi, Criminal acts

Abstract:
The disseminator and participant of deviant’s sects can be accused as an “apostate” or “murtad”. They have committed “hudud crime” or “jarimah hudud” and can be punished by death sentence or subsidiary sanction. Nevertheless, the sanctions cannot be implemented because Indonesia is not Islamic state. There is no law enforcement towards the participant of deviant sects. But, they are only requested to be mass repented. The argumentation is that the participants of deviant’s sects are only a victim, so the process of law enforcement must be adjusted to the leader or disseminator of deviant sects.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine Christian views on the ethics of tax evasion. Design/methodology/approach To achieve this objective, data were gathered from the most recent World Values Survey, which included 60 countries. The sample size exceeded 30,000. Various demographic variables were also examined, such as gender, age, marital status, education level, income level, social class, position on the political spectrum and others. Findings This study found that although there was widespread opposition to tax evasion, it could be justified sometimes. Not all Christian sects had the same view of tax evasion. Some sects were less severe in their opposition than others. This study ranked the various sects from least to most opposed. Originality/value The present study expands the religions literature by showing that differing Christian sects have opinions on the ethics of tax evasion that differ significantly, and that it cannot be said categorically that the more conservative Christian sects are either more opposed or less opposed to tax evasion than are the liberal or moderate sects.

Abstract:
This article studies the phenomenon of totalitarian sects entering politics. It concerns the participation of totalitarian sects in the political processes and election campaigns with the aim of getting into power, as well as the attempts of some political figures to rely on the infrastructure of totalitarian sects in order to promote themselves in the ruling structures. The author summarizes the works of Russian and international social thinkers and religious scholars, studying totalitarian sects as a relatively new social and religious phenomenon, supplementing and developing their findings. In particular, the following features are recognized as the key characteristics of totalitarian sects. A relatively recent foundation — usually with the founder still alive. A charismatic leader — the founder or successor, who has unquestionable authority. Closed information environment, filtering any external information signals. Careful regulation of the adherents' life, as well as their double code language, allowing them to recognize others in a “friend-or-foe” mode, which likens totalitarian sects to criminal communities. A rigid hierarchy that doses information about the organizations' goals to its members at different levels of initiation; adherents' compulsory financial participation and preaching activities. The author analyzes the promotion of totalitarian sects in politics using examples from Ukrainian and Russian political practices of the post-Soviet period. In particular, he studies the political activities of such structures as the Livets Ord (lit. “Word of Life”) Baptist Church, the Scientology Church, the Embassy of God sect (Sunday Adelaja), the Unification Church (Sun Myung Moon), the Living Word Baptist Church, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, the Last Covenant Church, Slavic neopagan groups and radical Islamist sects. The network community formed around the Alexei Navalny's Anti-Corruption Foundation also possesses the attributes of a totalitarian sect. Particular attention is paid to specific examples of the political involvement of totalitarian sects and their influence at different levels of government in Ukraine and in the Russian Federation, as well as the resulting damage. Considering the scale of totalitarian sects' activities in Russia — hundreds of such organizations are involved, up to 1 million people in total — the author emphasizes their use by foreign intelligence services, which poses a threat to Russia's national security.

Abstract:
We model radicalization in a society consisting of two competing religious, ethnic or political groups. Each of the ‘sects’ is divided into moderate and radical factions, with intra-group transitions occurring either spontaneously or through indoctrination. We also include the possibility of one group violently attacking the other. The intra-group transition rates of one group are modelled to explicitly depend on the actions and characteristics of the other, including violent episodes, effectively coupling the dynamics of the two sects. We use a game theoretic framework and assume that radical factions may tune ‘strategic’ parameters to optimize given utility functions aimed at maximizing their ranks while minimizing the damage inflicted by their rivals. Constraints include limited overall resources that must be optimally allocated between indoctrination and external attacks on the other group. Various scenarios are considered, from symmetric sects whose behaviours mirror each other, to totally asymmetric ones where one sect may have a larger population or a superior resource availability. We discuss under what conditions sects preferentially employ indoctrination or violence, and how allowing sects to readjust their strategies allows for small, violent sects to grow into large, indoctrinated communities.

Abstract:
After the Prophets death, Muslims kept their community compact until the period of Ebu Bekr and Omer. After the assassination of khalif Osman, confrontations and bloodsheds started among Muslims. The unhappy events undermined the strong khalif authority and Islam and Muslims faced a serious situation and temptation. Different opinions about the issue of khalifat originated in that period. Each of the opposing sides presented their arguments, some of them even used false traditions and interpretations. The result of those events was the beginning of sects and schisms among Muslims. Haridžijs and Shiites were the first sects to emerge, and after them kaderije and murdžije which were the source of all other sects and schisms. All the sects were determined by outer and inner factors that sometimes had only religious character, and at some other times politically-economical and even philosophical character. Key words: sects/schisms, haridžije, Shiites, kaderije, murdžije and mu’atezile

Abstract:
Different Muslim groups/sects in Bangladesh are very intolerant to other groups/sects where Islam teaches brotherhood and unity. This study tried to see the issue from a management perspective, especially in the area of decision making. The study tried to identify the decision-making biases and/or errors among Muslim groups/sects in Bangladesh, and their impacts on their decision-making process. The study adopted a model developed by Kieren Jamieson and Paul Hyland (2006). This study followed a qualitative approach. It interviewed 20 Islamic scholars and unity initiators who are working for establishing brotherhood and unity among Muslim groups/sects in Bangladesh. Guidelines have been used while conducting a face-to-face interview. Firstly, the study tried to find whether there are biases and/or errors in the decision-making process among different Muslim groups/sects in Bangladesh, and we found some serious biases and/or errors that can surely lead to biased/inappropriate decisions about other Muslim groups/sects. Secondly, the study tried to specifically find the nature and impacts of those biases and/or errors according to the research framework. It categorized those biases and/or errors in information bias, cognitive bias, risk bias, and uncertainty bias. Those biases and/or errors occurred in the information load, and in the decision-making process. Cognitive biases, the study found, have the most impacts on decision making. From the study, we developed a model to present the decision-making biases and/errors, and their impacts on decisions Muslim groups/sects in Bangladesh take.

The uniqueness» fracture of the ruling speech about modernity has plunged usinto despair of relativity voices of postmodernism. We assist, according to Garcia(2008), to a new era characterized by the implementation of a spiritual market anda religions cocktail. The increased sensitivity of citizenship by cultivating integrityalong with the host institutions crisis exacerbates the vulnerability of people tobe influenced of sectarian ideologies. After having analyzed society as a beneficialcrop to the sects, the speech focused on adolescence as the most vulnerable stage,claiming that education, from many different contexts, is the most likely responseto prevent the sect»s recruitment.

Abstract:
"Popular Sectarianism in the Minq: Lo Ch'ing and his 'Religion of Non-Action'" is a study of Lo Ch'ing (1442-1527), a lay religious reformer of Ming Dynasty China, the scriptures he composed and the Lo chiao tradition. Chapter I utilizes historical materials (official records, accounts of observors, and memorials to the throne) and sectarian documents (sectarian hagiographies and Lo's own autobiography) to formulate a biography of Lo Ch'ing. Chapter II analyzes Lo's religious thought, based on translated passages from his scriptures, entitled Wu-pu liu-ts 'e (Five Books in Six Volumes) , in the context of the history of Chinese religions and the canonical scriptures of Buddhism, Taoism and the Literati (Confucian) tradition. Chapter III traces the history of Lo sects from the Ming Dynasty to the present, from historical documents, sectarian accounts, and interviews with contemporary Lo sectarians conducted in Taiwan. Chapter IV examines Lo's sources and his use of Chinese written and oral traditions, with comparisons to popular religious literature of early modern Europe. Chapter V evaluates Lo Ch'ing's social role as a "cultural mediator" of conceptions and values between elite and popular levels of Chinese society, incorporating recent studies of similar figures in both Chinese and European history. The Appendices include summaries of the one hundred three chapters constituting the Wu- pu liu-ts'e, an annotated catalogue of Lo's sources, and a bibliography of reference works, primary sources, and secondary studies in Chinese, Japanese, and Western languages. The thesis is presented as a contribution to the fields of Chinese popular religion, sectarianism, and social history. It addresses methodological issues concerning the interaction of elite and popular culture, the study and interpretation of popular religious texts, the analysis of charismatic religious personalities, and the transmission of religious conceptions and values. The principle methodological conclusion of the thesis is that religious figures at a lower and middle level of society can be both creative thinkers and active agents of the transmission of values and conceptions throughout society and history. Much of the translated material in the dissertationis made available to Western-language readers for the first time, and the analysis of the material is based upon secondary studies in Chinese, Japanese, and English. It is hoped that this study will inspire further scholarship on Chinese popular religion as well as Lo Ch'ing and his Religion of Non-Action.

Full text
Abstract:
Dr. Fahreddin Shovkat's work “Iran” was first published in 1923 in the newspaper “Sarıgamış Varlıq” and in 1925 in Istanbul as a 160-page book. In the article, the 2017 year's Ankara edition prepared by Prof. Dr. Darya Ors was used. Fakhraddin Shovkat says that to recognize Iran, which has more than a million Turkish people, is more important than to know any western country, it is also important for its own culture and industry. Chapter 8 of the book “Iran” was dedicated to the religion and the sects. This chapter of the book deals with religion and sects in Iran at the beginning of the 20th century, their attitude to each other, the preference of religion by Turkish, Persian and other nations living in Iran, the difference of Jafari sect from others, religious rites and so on and it is important for F. Shovkat’s wide, objective views and analyses. Fakhraddin Shovkat emphasizes that the Iranian Turks are loyal and extremely tend to Jafari sect and Persians mostly tend to Baha'i sect. In the article, will be given the comparison of opinions by Fakhraddin Shovkat about religion and sects in Iran with information in A. Semenov’s “How the Persians live”, V. Gurko- Kryazhin's “Short History of Iran” and others. This will enable us to reveal the differences and similarities of the views of the Turkish-Muslim author of the Ottoman Empire and Christian Russian authors of the Russian Empire about the religions and sects in Iran and the level of objectivity of the information. Keywords: Fakhraddin Shovket, Iran, Jafari, Baha'i, Sheikhids, Heydarids, Nematies.

Abstract:
The article is devoted to the situation with the activities of different sectarian organizations in the Republic of Korea. There is a huge amount of information in our world that is not always possible to be objectively analyzed. It helps some sectarian organizations to promote their principles and ideas. This is especially true for the Republic of Korea, where the religious worldview is one of the most important components of the national mentality. Freedom of religion is highly valued in the country, sectarian ideas have the right to spread, and sects are practically not regulated by the state. According to rough estimates of Korean sociologists, today there are about 300 non-traditional religious sects in the Republic of Korea. These organizations disseminate their sectarian propaganda through music, books, marches, leaflets, active recruitment and the Internet.

Abstract:
One of the leaders of Islamic mysticism (sufism) in the 13th century was Sheikh Tajaddin Ibrahim Zahid Gilani (1218-1301). His ancestors migrated from Khorasan (from Merv area of modern Turkmenistan) to Lankaran district of Azerbaijan. This man was involved in the Abhariyya branch of the Suhravardiyya sect at the beginning of his youth and began propaganda activities as a religious leader aged 55-60 years. He traveled for this purpose, invited people to the path of truth, educated thousands of disciples and caliphs and managed to win the love of people. Gilani had a great influence on the sultans of that era, especially on the Ilkhanid ruler Gazan Khan and gave him advice about fair government. Sheikh Zahid, who played an important role in the social life of the region in which he lived, left behind a large moral legacy. Such influential sects of the Turkic-Islamic world as Safaviyya, Khalvatiyya, Bayramiyya, Jalvatiyya, etc. come from this outstanding personality. His mausoleum is today in Shikhakaran (Hilyakaran) village of Lankaran district and is visited by the people. In current paper we reserached the unknown hagiography (Manâqib) of Sheikh Zahid. This work, as a part of manuscript book, is in the Kastamonu Manuscript Library (37 Hk 2694, vr. 97a-133a) and consists of 55 chapters. Hagiography of Sheikh Zahid was partially translated from Persian to Turkish by Mehmed b. Abdullatif, an Anatolian Turkish, in the 15th century. The Persian original of the work has not survived to this day. Keywords: Sheikh Zahid, Lankaran, Manâqib, Sufism.

Abstract:
Heat waves are rising in intensity and frequency. They could break the human survivability limit in India in the coming years. The goal of this paper is to understand the extreme thermal comfort adaptation of ascetics from Jain Svetambara sects in hot and dry as well as warm and humid weather in India to help the vulnerable populations beat the heat. A total of 65 subjects were interviewed in Delhi, Jodhpur, Siriyari and Ahmedabad between May and September 2023. Surveys were carried out with measurements of the indoor environment according to the adaptive thermal comfort methodology. Around 75% of the subjects had a neutral or a cooler thermal sensation while the thermal comfort index, UTCI, was in the strong to very strong heat stress range. Ninety percent of the subjects found these thermal environments to be acceptable. Two-third of the subjects preferred no change in the humid conditions when more than 50% of them acknowledged the presence of higher humidity in their indoor environment. An adaptive thermal comfort model proposed in this study suggests that it is possible to go beyond the IMAC-R model to further reduce the cooling needs of the warming world.

Abstract:
The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (AMC, or Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama’at) believe themselves to be Muslims. The AMC was founded by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad in 1889 as a revival movement within Islam. Unlike all other sects of Islam, they believe that Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835–1908) of Qadian (a small town in Gurdaspur district of Punjab, India) is the same promised Messiah who was prophesied by the prophet Muhammad. Other sects believe that the promised Messiah is yet to come and, therefore, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad is a false prophet and his followers are non-Muslims.
