Related but distinct new religious movements originating in Britain and the United States—the New Age, Wicca, and Paganism—are responses to early anthropological theorizing and ethnographic engagements with both non‐Western cultures abroad and subcultures at home. They are the subject of current anthropological inquiry and sites of productive debates about the inherited colonial gaze, implicit Christian and androcentric roots of the field, methodologies of self‐reflexivity and insider–outsider boundaries, cultural appropriation, and the relationship between anthropological description and cultural creation
