Cover of Gerald Willms: Scientology (PDF)

Scientology war das gesellschaftspolitische Thema der 1990er Jahre und bis zu den Ereignissen des »11. September« galt Scientology als Synonym des Bösen überhaupt. Diese erste umfassende deutschsprachige Scientology-Analyse, die keinem normativen Ansatz verpflichtet ist, lässt die Frage nach dem Bösen notwendig offen. Aber sie kommt zu einem unbequemen Ergebnis, weil der Blick »jenseits der Devianz« den scientologischen Wesenszug der modernen Gesellschaft und ihrer »Normalitätsreligion« enthüllt.
