Almost two decades have elapsed since Armand L. Mauss published The Angel and the Beehive: The Mormon Struggle with Assimilation. His book began by acknowledging and illustrating the "Americanization" thesis advanced by others from a peculiar and disreputable sect toward a respectable church, increasingly comfortable with the surrounding American culture. However, since the midtwentieth century the LDS Church had begun to reverse course and was trying to recover some of the distinctiveness that seemingly had been lost during assimilation. Here, he discusses sociological theories about new religious movements.
