Description

The Satanism Scare explores the surprisingly little attention given to this topic in academic circles. A collection of papers from various disciplines, including folklore, cults, and sociology, examines contemporary aspects of Satanism and its impact on public opinion and law enforcement. Contributors approach claims about Satanism with a critical perspective, focusing instead on whose interests are served by such claims. Papers consider the effects of anti-Satanism campaigns on child protection services, civil litigation, and other sectors of society. The book also delves into the activities of satanic groups, acknowledging that some individuals do engage in real Satanic practices. This volume sheds light on the growing concern surrounding Satanism and its potential social consequences in the years ahead.
