Nathalie Luca

Nathalie Luca (born 1966) is a French research director at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), an anthropologist and a sociologist of religions.[1] She is deputy director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies of Religious Facts at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales and co-editor-in-chief of the French review Archives de sciences sociales des religions with Pierre Lassave.[2]

She was a member of the French government agency monitoring and combatting cultic deviances MIVILUDES from March 2003 to November 2005. She resigned on the ground that she refused to participate in a predictable hardening of policy of this organization.[3]

She wrote many books on groups she defined as "cults" and is regularly interviewed in the media,[4][5] and by anti-cult organizations[6] on this issue. She said she is not in favour of the establishment of a list of cults.[7]
