This does not mean that the violent and coercive dimensions of millennialism are not relevant, since no millennial manifestations have avoided such elements entirely, and contributions to the interaction between these strands of millennialism are welcome. The focus, however is on those millennial manifestations that contribute to the starting of public transformational waves, to the kinds of movements to which they give rise to the NRMs and voluntary associations they create, and, finally to the various landings that such movements have upon returning to the world of normal time, stable human relations, and realistic expectations about long-term human behavior. Call 617.358.0226 Contributions welcome from all disciplines within and from outside the academy.
Contributions can range historically and geographically from the ancient past to the global present.
