女性主导的新时代(积极关注自我)和男性主导的阴谋论领域(消极关注全球政治)似乎是对立的。然而,有一种我们称之为“阴谋”的综合。我们定义,描述和分析这种混合系统的信念,它已经注意到之前没有得到太多的学术关注。Conspirituality是一个快速增长的网络运动,表达了一种由政治幻灭和替代世界观的流行所推动的意识形态。它有国际名人,畅销书,电台和电视台。它提供了一个广泛的政治精神哲学的基础上两个核心信念,第一个传统的阴谋论,第二个植根于新时代:1)一个秘密集团秘密控制,或试图控制,政治和社会秩序,2)人类正在经历一个“范式转变”的意识。支持者认为,应对极权主义“新世界秩序”威胁的最佳策略是按照觉醒的“新范式”世界观行事。
The female-dominated New Age (with its positive focus on self) and the male-dominated realm of conspiracy theory (with its negative focus on global politics) may seem antithetical. There is a synthesis of the two, however, that we call ‘conspirituality’. We define, describe, and analyse this hybrid system of belief; it has been noticed before without receiving much scholarly attention. Conspirituality is a rapidly growing web movement expressing an ideology fuelled by political disillusionment and the popularity of alternative worldviews. It has international celebrities, bestsellers, radio and TV stations. It offers a broad politico-spiritual philosophy based on two core convictions, the first traditional to conspiracy theory, the second rooted in the New Age: 1) a secret group covertly controls, or is trying to control, the political and social order, and 2) humanity is undergoing a ‘paradigm shift’ in consciousness. Proponents believe that the best strategy for dealing with the threat of a totalitarian ‘new world order’ is to act in accordance with an awakened ‘new paradigm’ worldview.
