Conservative Religion and Mainstream Culture : Opposition, Negotiation, and Adaptation
- 2021. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book highlights tensions and negotiating processes between modern society and conservative religious groups. Conservative religion and society have co-existed for at least a century in an increasingly pluralist society. Still, the right to religious freedom and tolerance clashes with certain expressions of religious exclusivity. In this book, scholars from different disciplines look at the various ways in which representatives of conservative religious faith live, practice, and formulate their religion in relation to a contemporary mainstream culture.The studies included represent various settings with regard to time, religion and geography, and are presented in three thematic groups: culture, schooling and public life, and media. Taken together, the studies contribute to a more nuanced and diverse picture of conservative religious believers and their engagement with mainstream society. The book will be of interest to students and researchers in the fields of sociology of religion, church history and contemporary religion.

Från nyläseri till bibelbälte : kyrka och väckelse i Västerbotten
- 2020. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Boken Från nyläseri till bibelbälte uppmärksammar olika aspekter av kyrka och väckelse i Västerbotten från tidigt 1800-tal fram till i dag. Två av artiklarna rör utvecklingen av det evangeliska nyläseriet under 1800-talet med särskilt fokus på relationen mellan präster och lekfolk i Skellefteå respektive Sorsele. Det stridbara nyläseriet, där Luthers skrifter stod i centrum, utgjorde en viktig förutsättning för både den rosenianska och den laestadianska grenen av den stora folkväckelsen på 1800-talet. Daniel Lindmark ägnar särskild uppmärksamhet åt nyläsarnas tolkning av läran om det allmänna prästadömet. Med stöd av denna lära hävdade nyläsarna sin rätt och skyldighet att bedöma prästers förkunnelse och medmänniskors tro. Bo Lundmark redogör i sin artikel för de konflikter som uppstod mellan nyläsarna och kyrkoherde Anders Fjellner i Sorsele. Positionerna var låsta på bägge håll, och konflikterna tog sig uttryck i upprepade inlagor till domkapitlet i Härnösand.Antologin innehåller även två artiklar som rör kyrka och väckelse på 1900-talet. Lars Olov Sjöström skriver om bibelsynsstriden inom EFS på 1960- och 1970-talen, när EFS traditionella bibelsyn utmanades av både samhällsutvecklingen och universitetsteologin. Striden stod som hetast inom Västerbotten, där ett antal personer till slut lämnade EFS för att bilda en egen organisation. Stefan Gelfgren tar sig också an Västerbotten i sin diskussion av olika kyrkoregioner och deras karaktärsdrag. Den rosenianska väckelsen i kustlandet och frikyrkligheten i inlandet gör att Västerbotten kan sägas ingå i ett större bibelbälte som sträcker sig från trakterna söder om Örnsköldsvik upp till Tornedalen. De folkliga väckelser som bredde ut sig på 1800-talet och tidigt 1900-tal utövar således fortfarande ett avläsbart inflytande i Västerbotten.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this introductory chapter, various terms and concepts referring to conservative religious groups are discussed, including fundamentalism and strong religion. Arguments for the use of the term conservative religion are presented. Usually, groups of conservative religion are characterized by conservative theology and morality, while their views of social and political matters can vary. Processes of modernisation and secularisation are also discussed in this chapter and related to conservative religion in the past and present. Finally, the introductory chapter contains a presentation of the subsequent chapters. The presentation concludes in a discussion of the strategies used by the groups under study in the empirical chapters: opposition, negotiation and adaptation.

Historical justice and history education
- 2021. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book explores how the expectations of historical justice movements and processes are understood within educational contexts, particularly history education. In recent years, movements for historical justice have gained global momentum and prominence as the focus on righting wrongs from the past has become a feature of contemporary politics. This imperative has manifested in globally diverse contexts including societies emerging from recent, violent conflict, but also established democracies which are increasingly compelled to address the legacies of colonialism, slavery, genocides, and war crimes, as well as other forms of protracted discord. This book examines historical justice from an educational perspective, exploring the myriad ways that education is understood as a site of historical injustice, as well as a mechanism for redress. The editors and contributors analyse the role of history education in processes of historical justice broadly, exploring educational sites, policies, media, and materials. This edited collection is a unique and important touchstone volume for scholars, policy-makers, practitioners, and teachers that can guide future research, policy, and practice in the fields of historical justice, human rights and history education.
