Description
Brad Stoddard’s “The Production of Entheogenic Communities in the United States” offers a comprehensive academic examination of religious communities that incorporate entheogenic substances—psychoactive plants and compounds used in spiritual and religious practices—into their belief systems and rituals.
Part of the Elements in New Religious Movements series, this work explores how these communities form, organize, and maintain their spiritual practices within the American religious landscape. Stoddard investigates the historical context, theological frameworks, and social dynamics that characterize entheogenic religious movements in contemporary America.
Published by Cambridge University Press, this scholarly resource provides researchers, students, and readers interested in new religious movements, religious studies, and the intersection of spirituality and psychoactive substances with rigorous academic analysis and insights into these distinctive faith communities.
