Bobineau criticized the work of the MIVILUDES on cults. [2] His book Le satanisme. Quel Danger pour la société ? raised some controversy since it contradicted the observations made by the MIVILUDES (for which he was scientific advisor in 2005), claiming that Satanists are just a few hundred in France and they pose no danger.
