The Form of Family Life in the Context of new Religious Movements in the CR
Kinghamová, Karin ; Šubrová, Anežka (advisor) ; Sedláčková, Daniela (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with different forms of family life in some new religious movements in the Czech Republic and their specific features. The study provides an overview of Czech family life and of the Czech religious scene so as to give an idea of what is considered usual in this country. A more in depth analysis considers the terms "new religious movements" and "sects", why they appear and who are the people who join them. It describes the mechanisms of these alternative religions, their variability, not forgetting the local legislative approach to religion. The second part of the thesis presents individual new religious movements with a general characteristic and a description of their family life with the help of specialized literature and interviews with members of specific religious societies.
