The Principles of Unity
Citation Formats
General Reference
APA Style
BibTeX
The Principles of Unity is the Reclaiming tradition's own collectively adopted statement of its principles, cited as a custodian source: the tradition speaking for itself, the only kind of authority that can settle what a living tradition's own principles say. Its strength is that direct authority. Its limit is that a group's statement of itself is not independent verification of its history, and because the text was consensed in 1997 and revised again in 2012 and 2021, no single publication year is given here; cite the specific revision when a claim depends on exact wording.
