Charisma, Status, and Gender in Groups With and Without Gurus
A number of studies have noted that small religious groups with charismatic leaders seem to have different gender dynamics than do groups without. We argue that the presence of such a leader changes what charisma 'means' in such a group. Without such a leader, strong personalities may appear charismatic and lead to positions of high status-and such dynamics historically have tended to be associated with a positional advantage to males. With such …

This is the second part of a two-part article about brainwashing. In the first part, published in the premier issue of this jounal, I discussed the history of this much maligned concept and attempted to rescue it from the fruitless culture wars in which it has become entangled. I offered a limited and precise definition of brainwashing with the goal of making it a useful concept in the social-psychological study of disaffiliation from religious m…

Reply to 'Religious Devoutness Construed as Pathology' by Bartholomew and O'dea
There has arisen an unfortunate polarization between proreligious and antireligious scholars of religion. In identifying with the former, the Bartholomew and O'Dea article fails to note the truth does not lie in one or the other option. There is a need to comprehend how medicine and psychiatry can constructively contribute to understanding religious phenomena rather than discount them arbitrarily. William James, Marc Galanter, and Julius Rubin ar…
The Blacklisting of a Concept
This is the first part of a two-part article on the concept of brainwashing in the study of new religious movements (NRMs). The use of this term has become so emotionally charged that scholars find it difficult to discuss its merits and scientific utility with calmness and objectivity. I devote Part One of this article to an examination of the cultural and structural sources of an extreme polarization that has occurred among scholars of new relig…

The Communes of the 1970s
This article examines who joined the communes of the 1970s and challenges many common assumptions about partici- pants and their motivations. Not all commune members were from middle class backgrounds. Very few came from broken homes. On several measures, those who joined communes were less alienated than other Americans at the time. Commune members were innova- tors and experimenters; however, rates of involvement in noncon- ventional political,…
