Sample Research Paper Outline

    Jonestown was attractive to many people because of the charismatic leadership of Jim Jones.  Few, however, could have expected the tragic end of the People’s Temple in 1978.  In my research paper, I will explore whether or not Jonestown was a cult or an apocalyptic religious movement.  Using autobiographical accounts of former members of the People’s Temple and other works, my paper will examine three issues: who joins cults, the steps of indoctrination, and the utopian message of an apocalyptic religious system of beliefs.  I am also especially interested in examining what Appel calls the “physiology of brainwashing” because it seems that this approach will help to understand the different reactions from the general public, members, and ex-members to the People’s Temple as a “cult”.
