Il CESNUR (Centro Studi sulle Nuove Religioni), fondato in Italia nel 1988 da un gruppo di accademici e studiosi di scienze religiose europei e americani interessati allo studio delle minoranze religiose e spirituali di qualunque genere e tipo e alla costruzione di "mappe" delle appartenenze religiose in tutti i paesi del mondo, è attualmente presieduto dal professor Luigi Berzano, ordinario di Sociologia generale presso l’Università di Torino, e diretto dal professor Massimo Introvigne, autore di oltre sessanta volumi in tema di minoranze religiose e noto specialista del settore. Il Comitato Scientifico che dà impulso alle sue iniziative comprende, con altri, la professoressa Eileen Barker, ordinario di Sociologia presso la London School of Economics, il dottor J. Gordon Melton, presidente dell’Institute for the Study of American Religion di Waco (Texas), il professor Jean-François Mayer, già docente di Storia delle religioni presso l’Università di Friburgo (Svizzera).
