The cult phenomenon is a typical case for criminology. It sits halfway between law and legal medicine, right at the heart of forensic psychiatry. CC’s commit criminal actions against people and property, and sometimes they foment grander schemes that threaten state security.
Here, then, is my proposition:
A coercive cult (CC) is a closed group, based on mental manipulation, organized around a master (guru) and an ideology.
It aims to establish a qualitative difference between the initiates of the structure and non-initiates, and its objective, overt or covert, is the enrichment of the group or of a part of the group.
It is established and developed by the exploitation of those who are manipulated, by those who do the manipulating.
Its effect on the individual is likely to entail physical and psychic disorders, which may or may not be reversible.
