Religious education in epistemic superdiversity: Combining pluralism with truth-seeking in a shared world
Counter-secular religion and worldview education scholars are fighting old battles. Their challenge to secular epistemic dominance remains an important front. But now a new and urgent front of the same battle has emerged: the threat of post-truth. Worryingly, some of the arguments developed at the first front may inadvertently weaken the second. Securing both fronts by combining epistemic pluralism with epistemic reliability is a difficult but ne…
Skolegudstjeneste som identitetspolitikk og religionsdidaktikk
Ole Jakob Løland har skrevet en bred og informativ artikkel om skolegudstjenester og debattene rundt dem, og konkludert med at norsk religionspolitikk bør gå i retning av en mer pluralistisk modell. Dette er vi helt enige i, så i stedet for å gå i polemikk mot Løland, vil vi bruke denne anledningen til å utdype og reflektere videre rundt noen av hans mange punkter
Markers of difference make a difference: Perception, control, and clarity in white Muslim women’s stigma management
White Muslim women in Norway navigate a world shaped by racialized and religified expectations. This article explores how markers of difference such as skin tone, clothing, and accent enable and constrain their self-presentation. Drawing on 14 qualitative interviews with both converts and lifelong white Muslim women, the study develops a theoretical account of “markers of difference” by identifying three variable characteristics: perception, cont…
Communities of Disagreement
This guest column in Common Knowledge presents the concept of "communities of disagreement" to an international and interdisciplinary audience, perhaps for the first time. It takes as its starting point the contrast between agonistic and deliberative democratic theories, and it attempts to outline how democratic groups may live well with unresolved disagreement yet not give on up developing truth-sensitive decision-making processes. It argues aga…
Silence and Sameness in the Norwegian Church Abroad
Employees of the Norwegian Church Abroad (NCA) avoid discussing politics. Understanding why increases sociological understanding of how everyday and nonextreme forms of religion may contribute to everyday and nonextreme forms of national feeling. This article leverages insights from studying the NCA in order to contribute to the sociological literature on everyday nationalism and religion. It does this by illustrating how the microsociological st…

Controversial Issues and the Rhetoric of Common Values
In this article, I identify a broad, international 'rhetoric of common values', which hinges on the poorly supported assumption that values should be promoted because the sharing of values are the basis for social cohesion in groups. Through discussing two cases, I identify, analyse and critique key features of the empirical phenomenon that I call the rhetoric of common values. The two cases are the British government response to the so-called 'T…
