520 |a Conceptualizing secession as a final stage in the process of schism highlights the significance of considering the organizational context within which the angry church member decides whether to exit or remain loyal. Etzioni said that beyond techniques which internalize the authority's directives as legitimate, there is little a church can do to gain compliance from a deviant group. The paper examines this contention by use of Wilson's proposition that schism is a dialectical process which grows through the exacerbation of conflict between authorities and the minority group. We develop a model for analysis of the formation of secessionist congregations within the Episcopal Church's diocesan boundaries following a schism predicated on the issues of women's ordination and Book of Common Prayer revision. Four case studies are qualitatively analyzed. Findings suggest the Pastoral Bishop, as opposed to a Prophetic or Administrative Bishop, functions as a factor minimizing the likelihood of secession.
