Changing World of New Religiosity
(Abstract)

Majority of new religious movements have constant existence. But some of them changes from many factors, basic of which are:

1. Political situation in the country and state's policy in relation to new religious movements;
2. Interreligious conflicts arising from collisions of so-called "traditional" and "nontraditional" religions more often;
3. Internal problems of new religious movements, that giving necessity of changing positions of their doctrines.

All this factors must to have the special attention from the part of the scientists. In this report we will stop in detail only of one of them (interaction new religious movements with other religions). The reason is simple. Just this factor, in our opinion, is more important and primary for the appearance of new religious movements in post-communist countries.
