Post New Mormon History: A Manifesto.
- Authors
Reeve, W. Paul
- Abstract
The article examines developments in the academic study of Mormon history, notably interdisciplinary, comparative, and theoretical advances to the New Mormon History. Particular focus is given to the impact of Mormonism on people and social groups who came into contact with the religious movement. The study of the global nature of Mormonism, its continued relevance in the 20th and 21st centuries, and restorationist traditions with connections to religious leader Joseph Smith is discussed. The integration of Mormon historical studies with a variety of academic disciplines and scholars from various religious backgrounds is also examined.
