Account of atrocities

A history of atrocities , as defined by the American sociologists Anson D. Shupe and David G. Bromley, is the notation symbolic of actions or of events (real or imaginary) in a context such as they appear to constitute an obvious violation of the principles (supposed) according to which a whole of social relations should be held. The purpose of the fact of telling such accounts is to consolidate the limits which are normative. By sharing the disapproval or the horror of the person who makes the account, the audience reaffirms the normative regulations and clearly locates those which violate them apart from the limitations of the public morality.

According to Jean Duhaime, Shupe and Bromley of the apostates of the new religious movements tell accounts of atrocities.
