Summary, etc. The objective of this research has been to describe and account for the growth and spread of the Baha'i Faith. The religion has been considered as an innovation, and its dissemination has been viewed as a consequence of its internal structure and decision-making patterns. It was found that a strong centralized leadership has facilitated diffusion, that religious beliefs have favored dissemination efforts, and that policy and planning have successfully directed Baha'i expansion. At the same time, the staging and direction of Baha'i expansion frequently have been influenced by attitudes, conditions and events lying outside the direct control of the Baha'i movement.
