Scope and Contents
The James T. Richardson New Religious Movement Collection contains records of his scholarly research and activity to include
newspaper clippings, photos, audio and video recordings, personal papers, organizational documents, federal agency records,
and related anti-cult and scholarly papers spanning over the last fifty years. It is evident by the contents of this collection
that several New Religious Movements directly contributed primary source materials about their activities to Richardson. Those
sorts of documents make this particular collection unique. Some of the most notable documents are from groups such as the
Rajneeshees, the Aggressive Christianity Missionary Training Corps, the Hare Krishna and Jesus People movements, Scientology,
the Unification Church (Moonies), Aum Shinrikyo, and the Family International (Children of God). There are a significant number
of folders with information about the Branch Davidians and Peoples Temple, though the materials do not appear to be directly
from those sects. Other themes found in this collection include ritual abuse, famous news cases (e.g. the "Dingo ate my baby"
case in Australia). There are a large number of documents from both the Anti-Cult Movement as well as the Religious Libertarian/Religious
Freedom Movement. There are also folders that contain information about lesser known groups with both benign and controversial
histories. There are ten series in this collection: Religious Movements Files (1830-2014), Governments and New Religious Movements
Files (1971-2013), Richardson Office Files (1972-2011), Legal Papers (1975-2009), Academic Papers (1956-2014), Thematic Files
(1973-1995), Private Organization Files (1977-2003), Periodicals (1965-2008), Audio/Visual Files (1972-1998), and News Articles
(1972-2005). Religious Movements Files (1830-2014): This series is arranged by sect with folders labeled thematically. It
is a rather large series and contains materials for over 40 different groups of various movements, from new age to Christian,
eastern traditions, UFO worship, etc. This series spans 17 boxes. Governments and New Religious Movements Files (1971-2013):
This series is arranged by country, mostly European. This contains papers from and about these governments and their relationships
with alternative religions and fringe sects. Most of these documents are in English with few exceptions. Richardson Office
Files (1972-2011): The contents of this series are broad. It includes general correspondence, comic cartoons, university materials,
etc. Most of these folders are not specific to any sect or to the direct study of New Religious Movements. Legal Papers (1975-2009):
The majority of this series are documents about major legal cases, particularly in the United States but do not include media
coverage of those cases. That can be mostly found in series 10. Academic Papers (1956-2014): This series contains academic
works from Richardson and many other scholars at different levels of their careers, from master's theses and doctoral dissertations
to published articles of well-established scholars. The scholars in this series are from different disciplines with varying
specialties and include notable names such as Stuart Wright, Anson Shupe, and David Bromley, to name a few. Thematic Files
(1973-1995): This series is arranged by topic. The materials in this series often have no author or organizational indicators
so are not included in series 2, 4, 5, 7, or 10. Topics include Christchurch abuse scandal, abortion, deprogramming, etc.
Private Organization Files (1977-2003): The organizations found in this series are mostly groups that fall into either the
anti-cult or religious freedom movements. The materials are mostly primary source documents directly from the organizations
and discuss their activities in regard to various sects and incidents over the last several decades. Periodicals (1965-2008):
Many of the periodicals found in this series are major titles; Time, Newsweek, etc. However, a bulk of the series also includes
sect-specific periodicals, including Hare Krishna's Back to Godhead, issues of the Utah Lighthouse Ministry's Salt Lake City
Messenger, periodicals from the Rajneeshees, Scientology, the American Family Foundation, and the Family International (both
Activated and Good News among others). Audio/Visual Files (1972-1998): In this series are VHS, 3 ½ inch floppy discs, photos,
slides, and cassette tapes from various groups as well as interviews Richardson conducted with members of several groups.
News Articles (1972-2005): This series has both newsprint and photocopied news articles. The scope of this series is wide;
it is separated by material, topic, group, and physical size.
