[edit] Criticism

Different viewers, such as the "center for studies on new religions", claim that the organization is a religious cult.

!Note that the site of Miguel Martínez (the man who left New Acropolis in 1980 with a brawl) claims that the founders of New Acropolis were Jorge Angel Livraga Rizzi and his wife Ada Dolores Albrecht.[citation needed]
