The editors are pleased to announce the publication of Nova Religio 24, no. 1 (August 2020), which is a special issue on new religious movements in Australia, guest-edited by Bernard Doherty. Bernard Doherty contributes an in-depth survey of the four waves of “cult controversy” in Australia and the new religious movements involved. Carole M. Cusack documents the highly controversial group known as The Family led by Anne Hamilton-Byrne and its abuse of the children that Hamilton-Byrne adopted and the media coverage of the group. Angela Coco discusses another movement that has received media controversy in Australia known as Universal Medicine led by Serge Benhayon, which is part of the broad Theosophical movement. The issue also contains a review essay by Matthew Bowman on “The Birth and Life of the New Mormon History,” and twenty-two reviews and several book notes. A detailed In Memoriam written by Eileen Barker remembers the life and work of Benjamin Zablocki.
